Know before you buy
The AquaSweep is designed to float on the surface, meaning it automatically rises and falls with your pond or canal's water level. This ensures the unit remains at the optimal depth for debris removal regardless of tidal changes or seasonal fluctuations.
No, the motor is completely oil-free and maintenance-free. It is designed for long-term, reliable operation without the need for internal servicing.
Yes, the unit features an adjustable flow direction. You can easily aim the high-volume water propulsion to target specific areas where algae or debris tend to accumulate near your dock or shoreline.
The unit operates on standard 115V power and requires a GFCI-protected outlet. Because it is a high-performance 680-watt motor, ensure your power source is properly grounded and rated for outdoor use.
Yes, the motor housing is fully submersible. However, the unit is specifically designed to float on the surface to effectively push debris and surface-level algae away from your waterfront.
The AquaSweep comes with a 35-foot heavy-duty power cable. If your power source is further away, ensure you use an outdoor-rated extension cord that meets the necessary gauge requirements to handle the motor's power draw.
