POPOSOAP 70W Solar Pond Filter with Fountain Pump, Solar Powered Water Pump with 580GPH Pond Filter for Outdoor Ponds, Adjustable Diverter Valve for Koi Ponds, Waterfalls, Garden Water Features

This is amazing way to keep your pond functioning without a huge electric bill. It does work best on sunny days since it is solar and on cloudy days sometimes it doesn’t. But I love having something simple to set up and cost efficient. I purchased this in May then I decided to purchase the waterfall solar pump also. Because I have a large pond with a small pond and stream in the middle. The waterfall pump has been awesome. I was surprised it could pull the water from my big pond up the slope to the small one. I did have an issue with this pump. It stopped working after about a month but the company sent me a new one and I installed it this morning and it’s working. For me this is truly an easier way to run a pond.

I bought this filter to replace a smaller one that wasn't very efficient. I put it all together, trying to get the lid on was a bit trying, but I managed, put it in the water, plugged it into the solar panels, and nothing. I took it out of the water, took it all apart, and started over, still nothing, I trouble shot and watched you tube videos, and still nothing. Called customer service number, they were very friendly and efficient. Said someone would be in touch in 24 hours. They sent an email, I sent them the model I bought, told them I did all the trouble shooting, and still nothing. So they sent out a new one. I received it today. Put it together and plugged it in, kept my fingers crossed 🤞🏻, and it worked. So far so good. Can't talk about the efficiency of it or if it will last over time, but for now, I am happy. If your on the fence about purchasing this filter/pump, do it. POPOSOAP has great customer service, excellent communication, and they back their product. I ordered the battery Backup for the solar panels, but haven't received it yet.

We have geese and use this filter to help keep their small pond clean. At a rated 580 gph it pumps ample volume to keep up with the birds. If you've ever heard the term like "**** through a goose", I can tell you, it is an apt term. In any case the pump is strong and does seem to pump a good volume of water. There is a diverter valve that has to be used directly after the pump outlet in order for any of the other fittings to connect and the shut off to the diverter leaks. Not a big deal unless you really need water coming through only one outlet. The packaging was less than optimal and took a little while to gather all of the little balls and put them back in the filter box. Also, there was ample room inside the filter box to add additional bio balls so I added a bunch of small balls to increase the filtering capacity. The solar panel does run the pump even in partial sun, though at a reduced rate, but still pumps a good amount of water. Good design, strong pump, may need a bit of tweaking to suit your needs.

Ridiculously under powered. Brackets to hold up panels not in box. Returned it.

I like that the single seventy watt panel feeds a brushless pump rated at 580 GPH, enough for roughly 1,100 gallon ponds. The all-in-one box arrives preloaded with pads and bio-balls, so both debris and dissolved waste get tackled without extra plumbing. A telescoping riser reaching thirty nine inches plus a diverter valve splits flow between a fountain and a small waterfall. Quiet operation and a simple two-week rinse routine keep upkeep low while sunlight covers the energy bill.
