Hozelock Prima 5000XL Filter Pumps
Hozelock Prima 5000XL ... There are 2 models in this Prima series of pumps ... Both are available as automatic or XL models too. The inlet is flat at the bottom of the pump allowing water to be completely pumped out of any system where it accumulates and hence the name sump pump. Hozelock Prima pumps can handle solids up to 10mm making them good for higher pressure filter and waterfall systems. It is almost never necessary to clean the Prima pond pump range. The Prima manual pumps are excellent when pond pump systems include long lengths of pipes or lots of valves and fittings because all these create friction losses also called pressure drop in the re-circulating system and the impact is to reduce the pump flow.
