Installation Considerations
Place pump at the lowest point of the pond for maximum suction. Ensure intake strainer is clear of debris. Run submersible power cords through conduit above water to prevent degradation. Check thermal protection settings and ensure adequate ventilation for motor cooling.
DAB pumps are engineered for clean water circulation. For pump-downs or construction drainage, filtration of intake water is recommended to extend pump life.
