The PondMAX PV pumps are a perfect economical recirculating pump for any small pond or fountain. The PV series all come with a built in flow control, large screen with sponge and multiple hose connectors. With ceramic impeller shafts, each pump is made to run quiet and give the pumping performance you need for a fountain or small pond. You can also attach an external prefilter to the threaded intake to reduce the cleaning frequency.
