Oase Pondovac 4 Pond Vacuum

Product Information

As well as this, it comes with 5 nozzle attachments, so you can adjust it to whatever size is most suitable for your pond. One of these is a specialised algae nozzle too, which really helped to collect the surface waste (nasty green stuff!) covering my pond. The Pondovac 4 includes the same two chamber technology as the Pondovac 3 allowing continuous vacuuming of your pond, but has been upgraded in several different ways. The motor is more powerful creating a faster flow and allows suction from 2.4m deep. Oase have also included an additional suction nozzle in with the Pondovac 4 - the Area Nozzle is ideal for large open areas of pond. The interconnecting suction tubes are made from robust aluminium and the suction hose is 5m instead of 4m. On the curved handle is a hand regulator allowing the suction to be adjusted. If vacuuming silt and sediment the discharge should be run to waste (makes an excellent plant fertiliser). Supplied with a 2 year guarantee which can be extended to 3 years by sending the warranty card off to Oase. It is though from recent studies that 90% of fish deaths and illness is initially through poor water quality, so if you make sure you're keeping your pond clean, your fish will remain healthy. Oase PondoVac 4 Special Features

After a good clean, it's likely that your vac will be as good as new. Maximum Suction Depth. There are three factors affecting the “cleaning radius” of a pond vac: cord length, hose length and maximum suction depth. The maximum depth is not the same as the hose length, so make sure the vacuum is capable of cleaning the bottom of your pond. If you want the vacuum to dump the cleaned material far away from the pond, the length of the discharge hose is also important.The 25 litre sludge tank means this pond vacuum is ideal for cleaning both garden ponds and pools...

Even if you would prefer to use it portably, it does a good job at collecting debris. Its filter bag is slightly smaller than I expected, but since this is only used for smaller ponds, 2 or 3 full bags is all you would really end up with, so it’s not that much of a pain. The filter bag is made from fine mesh too, so it actually does a decent job at collecting smaller particles.

Its hose is flexible enough to get to the hard to reach areas, and its length really helps with this. The choice between nozzles really helps too, as smaller nozzles are great for areas where there’s not much large debris so that smaller particles are collected more efficiently. It was easy to operate and the automatic activation/emptying feature was helpful at times too, so there was little worry of it overflowing. Overall, operating this vacuum was straightforward and didn’t need much thought. NON-STOP TECHNOLOGY: The two cylinders of the same size in the two-chamber system fill and empty simultaneously, in an alternating fashion. This enables non-stop suction It comes with 3 different nozzles to use depending on the size of the pond, which really came in handy. The drainage hose was 2m long and the suction hose was 4m long, so it was definitely flexible enough and easy to use. It has a 30L tank and can collect debris up to 10mm long, and with the 1400 Watt motor, you can get all debris up to this size no matter how small.
