EcoPlus Eco 1267 Water Pump Fixed Flow Submersible Or Inline For Aquariums, Ponds, Fountains & Hydroponics - UL Listed, 1347 GPH, Black

This is the 2nd eco pump I have purchased. The first one was way too small, but was great to get started. I actually thought this one was going to push plenty of gph for me, but not quite what I expected - and max height is 4' & it pushes to 7 different valves, so no gripes. Otherwise, that dang electric wheel is spinning slower (uses less electric) than w/ my other pump which is nice! This pump has run low on water a time or two & still functions great. I shut it off, fill up the sump & crank the pump. I have been running this pump 24/7 for 4 months or more now. I do have to clean the filter weekly, but I expected that as regular maintenance for any pump. I clamp on 1"ID clear tube to a 1" pvc pipe, then drop down to 3/4 at my GB's due to price of valves.

Pump is a fantastic addition to my microgreens farm. It runs quietly and efficiently, maintaining a peaceful environment. Its impressive 1347 GPH flow rate makes it a powerful choice for my setup. I'm thoroughly pleased with its performance, and it has greatly enhanced the functionality of my farm. Highly recommended!

I bought this as a replacement for a Hydrofarm AAPW1000 that functionally worked great, but had a weird outlet fitting size. The EcoPlus 1347 solved that problem because it has standard PVC fitting thread sizes. The EcoPlus is much larger than the old pump with the consideration that they have similar GPH ratings. However, this pump is pretty phenomenal for the price. I’mi a little disappointed that the price has gone up to $87 since I purchased it, but what are you going to do about it? So far, it’s able to recirculate the water for my saltwater mixing station and pump it to my tank with ease. The pump flawlessly moves water 46” above itself, and that’s not including all the twists, turns, and sediment filter I installed in the flow’s path. The flow to my tank is excellent, and it does what I need it to do. The plastic that forms the inlet and outlet feels very thin and cheap, so definitely find a way to reinforce it or be very gentle when screwing fittings in because it will crack and leak. The threads on the EcoPlus 1347 model are as follows: Inlet: 1” female NPT for PVC thread Outlet: 3/4” female NPT for PVC thread Hopefully that helps someone because it would have helped me, haha.

The EcoPlus pump is quiet, powerful and reliable. It is also very tolerant of small debris which is a necessity in a pond environment. I've had many different types of pumps over the years and these are the best.

Very easy to use and clean

I purchased this along with a EcoPlus 1hp water chiller to run as a inline pump for my diy cold plunge. Pump was indoors away from all weather. I had a micro mess filter in-line before the pump and cleaned the filter weekly. A few weeks ago I woke up to the pump off and not spinning. Definitely disappointed me as the ecoplus chiller works amazing. The pump bearings from the beginning always made a lot of noise. I never ran it dry either. Not sure why this broke so soon. I only had it running for 2-3 months too.

UPDATE: 03/27/2023 Replaced with the same pump in November 2022 and it lasted 4 months. It had a frozen propeller so it's not covered under warranty. Had an extra one, always keep one extra just in case, and that one so far, day 1, is working. I think I have this company my last money. Seeking another brand with a great warranty. UPDATE: Finally almost 3 years, it was still working...BUT... when I touched the water, I got zapped. UPDATE: 08/04/2021 over 2 years now... Still running strong. It still runs 24/7 with no slow downs and runs smoothly. ******************** I bought this in June 2019 for my 1800 gallon pond. It is still going strong today running it 24/7 with absolutely no issues. I'll probably order another one soon just to keep as a replacement. Maintenance is the key for any pump.

Moves a lot of water, comes with a bunch of different sized barb fittings that you screw into the top. You'll probably want to run at least 3/4 ID hose with this pump. It has a footprint about 8 inches long x 4 inches wide with the front filter removed (I don't run mine with the filter since it's circulating clean water). It does hum a bit and I can feel it vibrating the floor if I stand next to the tank it's submerged in, but it's not a deal breaker.
