Matala
Pond Vacuum II Plus
The Matala Pond Vacuum II Plus offers superior pond cleaning with its high-quality German 1.5 HP motor, delivering the suction of a 2 HP unit efficiently. This model boasts a larger 6.6-gallon tank capacity, increasing volume by 25% over its predecessor. Its innovative design features automatic fill and drain cycles for continuous, hands-off operation. The vacuum runs for approximately 50 seconds, then automatically switches to a 25-second drain cycle, discharging dirty water directly to garden or yard drains. An optional mesh bag can capture coarse debris during this process.
