Aquascape Pro Pumps are the popular choice of pond builders and contractors.
Aquascape horizontal pond pumps, from the AquascapePRO line, are energy efficient and low maintenance.
Aquascape has engineered the essence of the pond ecosystem. The pump circulates the water from the skimmer putting it through the filter mats and sending it over to the bottom of BIOFALLS where it passes up through another set of filter mats and media.

Quality Control
Aquascape stopped shipping the Aquascape Pro pumps in the summer of 2008 to retool the seals on the pumps that had caused some of the pumps to fail prematurely. Since the new seals have been installed and the pumps released in the fall of 2008, virtually no problems have been reported with seal failures and they are again considered one of the elite pond pumps in the world.
Quiet and efficient, these pumps have stainless steel construction, along with rubber feet to reduce vibration. With high head heights and high flow rates, the AquascapePRO line (also known as SFA), excels in the water garden. A vortex impeller for solid handling proves useful in pond applications
Aquascape Pro 1500 - Sold OUT - Discontinued
The Aquascape Pro 1500 was discontinued by Aquascape in 2009 in order to eliminate redundancy in their product line ( AquaSurge 2000 -#91017 or Aquasurge 3000 - #91018 are the replacements (you will need Aquasurge Conversion Kit 29705 ($13.99) to replace the plumbing connections with the AquaSurge)
Aquascape Pro 100000 - Sold OUT - Discontinued - Replaced by 12PN - 10,000 GPH Pump (3") - 30391 Tsurumi PL & PN Solids Handling Pumps which is virtually identical to the Aquascape Pro 10000 but more dependable and longer lasting. The Tsurumi 12PN is built expressly for Aquascape by Tsurumi.
Question:
I have a 2-3 year old SFA10000. What kind of oil does it need?
Aquascape Tech Answer:
This pump takes 12oz of a Mobil DTE Light non-additive non-detergent turbine oil. However, if it has not lost any then you shouldn't need to add or change it (that is one school of thought). Or the other thought is; changing the oil is a good maintenance practice if done by a shop that can pump in the oil and remove the air. If he is going to change it, this method is ideal because it is not like changing the oil in your car.
The Aquascape Pro Pumps takes 5 oz of the Mobile DTE Light Oil. The port is located on the side of the pump under the discharge. It is a hex-head screw that will be removed to add the oil.
Question:
Can you provide the seal & gaskets for a Aquascape # SFA10000?
Aquascape Tech Answer:
We do not offer replacement seals/gaskets for the AquascapePRO pumps.
However, I have been told that the following company has produced aftermarket seals and gaskets for our PRO pumps http://www.bergmanspecialty.com
The customer could contact them directly to see if this is something they have available

Note: You will need to order the AquaSurge Conversion Kit #29705 when converting Your Aquascape Pro (SFA) Pump 1500, 3000 or 4500 to AquaSurge
Use the
AquaSurge Conversion Kit (Part#29705) to connect the 1.5" Female Threaded Outlet to either 2" or 1 1/2" Check Valve Assemblies. TheKit contains the parts necessary to convert any AquaScape Pro pump to the AquaSurge Pump using your existing Check Valve Assembly and Aquascape Skimmer.
The kit includes two parts - one you will use and the other you will not need: 1 1/2" Male Thread x 2" Slip adapter for Classic Series Skimmers and Check Valves. Cut through the2" pipe and cut off the 2" Male adapter between the Check Valve and the pump. Screw the 1.5" x 1.5" Female Adapter that comes with the pump on to the 1.5" Male Thread Outlet on the pump. Glue the 2" Slip x 1.5" Male Thread (#99144) that comes in the Conversion Kit (#29705) on to the end of the pipe you just sawed off and screw the 1.5" Male Thread onto the 1.5" Female thread.
- OR - 2" Aquascape Check Valve Adapter for Signature Series Skimmers and Check Valves. Remove the Flanged part below the Check Valve with the 2" male Thread that screws into the pump and discard. Use part #29475 which comes in the Conversion Kit #29705. Insert the Flanged end into the bottom of the Check Valve Assembly and screw the other end - 1.5" Female onto the 1.5" Male stem of the pump.

Aqua scape Pump
I have been very happy with my pump. It was installed the summer of 2005 and has run continuously since with one intentional shutdown a year for pond cleaning. Now, unfortunately it is kicking off theGFI.
Aquascape 3000
My aquascape pump that I installed over seven years ago just went out. Performance was excellent and even had two jams (frogs). Will be purchasing a replacement.
