These new pond pumps from Draper offer some very attractive features. The powerful 750w motor can push water to a maximum height of 8 metres and it\'s ability to handle large particles up to 30mm means it will be almost maintenance free. This theme of rliability and durability is enhanced by the ceramic shaft used in the pump\'s construction. This means it will keep going for longer while the addition of a float switch means the pump will switch itself off if the water level drops too low.
