Solar Pool Pumps & Koi Pond Pumps
Upgrade your water circulation with our energy-efficient solar swimming pool pumps. Whether you need a pure Solar pool pump for an off-grid solution or a versatile hybrid pool pump that switches to mains power at night for continuous koi pond aeration, we have the ideal system to eliminate high grid electricity costs.
Understanding Solar Pool & Pond Pumps
How to determine your pool size
Pump size is determined by the requirement to circulate the pool water twice in a 24-hour period. This is calculated based on 6 hours of maximum pumping capacity per day using solar power.
Example: 5m x 3m x 1.2m = 19.2m x 1000 = 19,200 Litres
Solar Koi Pond Pumps
Koi ponds require constant circulation and aeration. Our dedicated solar solutions are excellent for daylight filtering, while our Hybrid Pool Pumps are specifically tailored for ponds—automatically switching to grid power at night to ensure critical 24-hour water circulation.
Solar vs. Hybrid Pool Pumps
A Solar pool pump is a 100% off-grid solution that connects straight to your solar panels via an MPPT controller, bypassing the need for a costly inverter. A hybrid pool pump accepts both solar DC and mains AC, prioritizing free solar energy during the day and automatically shifting to grid power when the sun goes down or for required chemical dosing.
Important Installation Note: These pumps are drop-in replacements for your existing AC pool pump and will work with your standard pool cleaner. They do not heat water.
