1. You should know what you need. I have a pond about 5x4 meters, about 1 meter deep with fish. Over the years, some mud has accumulated but I just wanted to "reduce".
2. A pond is not a swimming pool !!! Who even begins to mirror polish his pebbles in the pond makes a mistake anyway. A certain naturalness is important and essential for the equilibrium of a pond and that includes the mud. home of microorganisms, small animals and breeding.
-The Delivery was fast and reliable. Everything as described and undamaged ended up with me.
-An Assembly instructions you really need now is not, easy and self-explanatory.
-The Accessories, as well as the length of the "suction tube" are perfectly adequate for my purposes.
-Some Write the drain hose should be longer. Yes as long as? Some have 5 meters to the place of disposal, other 25 meters. Who the manufacturer to make it right because ??? With a bit of brain and mind and use of materials from the hardware store you can loose tinker his desire solution.
-Geräuschentwicklung In my view normally. As just the vacuum cleaner also raging in my living room.
As I have worked?
- Yes, the Sauer should (as already described in other reviews) is significantly above the water level are to ensure a decent (gravity controlled) flow. I took a garden chair. So are about 50-60cm above the level.
-The Water I have removed part in the lawn. Since I had but eventually turned into a swamp südtropischen it collected in a bucket and then spread "walk" in my flower beds. Another part I have collected in a wheelbarrow and also distributed around the house.
-Yes, It remains approximately every 30 seconds standing (if the tank is full) and spits the contents. I find now not annoying, because you can use this "forced break" to identify his work done to examine and, if necessary, the bodies in the pond where you "rage" next want. Apart from this "pond" a hobby and I like to take my time. It's not my claim within 1-2 hours in Hau-Ruck process a pond "durchzusaugen" (as said the living room).
-Once The sucker makes his "Zangspause" I have the "suction arm" lifted out of the water and held next to the pond through a flower bed. Thus you prevent that the "pumping" the amount of residual water with the mud which is still in the pipe / hose to flow back into the pond and leads to zero visibility.
-If You the intake manifold leads slightly above the mud, you can very well see with what power he einschlürft that stuff. Great. Smaller gravel stones, remains of roots, plant residues etc. eats the device without problems purely in itself and spits it out again afterwards. For me it did not even similar to a blockage
CONCLUSION: Value for money is absolutely OK. As I said, I have read and thought very much. For my application, I have made the right decision and I am happy.
In the summer I'll try him sometimes at the pool :)
