Kasco Decorative Fountain 8400JF 2 HP 240v
w/Float,C-85, 50' cord - 8400JF050
Kasco has redesigned the J Series fountains for increased performance and improved pattern definition, all while maintaining the same cost of operation as current models.
These new models feature increased water flow for crisp and larger laminar displays, no increase in power (amp) usage, and new Balsam 3-tier pattern. Installation and assembly is now easier than ever with fewer parts required, 1-piece float, twist and lock nozzles, easier maintenance and snap-on light clips for installation of optional lighting (purchased separately).
Redesigned units are available in both 60Hz and 50Hz (1-5HP) options.
Kasco J Series fountains are the perfect focal point in any pond or lake. From the 30 ft. high attention-demanding Redwood pattern to the elegant Balsam 3-tier pattern, each nozzle offers its own visual appeal. Designed with both beauty and function in mind, these fountains can improve overall water quality by increasing oxygen transfer. All J Series Fountains come with multiple nozzles included in the price and can be paired with an optional light kit.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS OF THE 8400JF
Product update 2021:
Kasco's 2 hp J Series fountains now feature a 1 piece tapered float. This new float provides easier installation and improved appearance in the water. Their new light clip brackets that come with their light kits snap right onto this new float.
Premium Nozzles (sold separately) were also updated and improved along with the addition of the new Mighty Oak premium pattern.
The 8400JF, single phase unit is supplied with a state-of-the-art GFCB protected control panel, model C-85. The panel includes a 240 volt control panel with timer, GFCB protection, 120V GFI protected outlet for lights, and photocell for light operation. Kasco recommends a licensed electrician to install the C-85 control panel and the 8400JF if you plan to hard-wire the unit into the C-85 control panel.

*A single surface acre is 43,560 Square feet or roughly 120' x 360'
Products Available In Varying Cord Lengths:
*Please contact ThePondOutlet.com for special pricing if cord length of more than 200 ft. is necessary
PondMeister Note:
For Aeration Sizing purposes, as a rough Rule-of-Thumb, Kasco uses 1 HP for every Surface Acre of water.
One Surface Area of water is 43,560 square feet.
For example, if your pond is 100' x 100' you have 10,000 square feet of Surface Area. This would require a 1/4 HP Kasco Fountain
