Stunning systems moving massive amounts of beautiful, flowing and falling water. Pumps from 0.5 to 40 HP, custom built with your choice of mount and sized for the height, distance and look you want.
How they're built
Waterfall pump systems use the same reliable submersible pump technology that has been used for display aerators and fountains for decades — built around your site rather than a fixed design.
Wet wells, solid pads, pond bottoms, or the popular pondless design — the pump is built for how your site is laid out.
Every system comes with a quick disconnect and a control panel, so service and seasonal shut-down stay simple.
Flexible discharge hose and a check valve can be added to match your plumbing and prevent drain-back.
| System | Motor | Max flow | Max head | Pump type |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Havasu | 0.5 – 2.0 HP | Up to 520 GPM | Up to 17 ft | Fusion submersible pumps |
| Angel | 1 – 5 HP | Up to 500 GPM | Over 20 ft | Centrifugal pumps |
| Niagara | 1.0 – 7.5 HP | Up to 500 GPM | Approaching 50 ft | Centrifugal pumps |
| Niagara 2 | 1.0 – 7.5 HP | Up to 500 GPM | Up to 45 ft | High-strength composite pumps |
| Yosemite | 7.5 – 40.0 HP | Up to 1,200 GPM | 150 ft or more | Turbine pumps |
Head is a combination of waterfall height and piping loss — the reason two waterfalls of the same height can need very different pumps.
01 / Waterfall pump system
The everyday choice for residential waterfalls and streams. Built on Fusion pumps that produce a nice, even flow without overwhelming a small to mid-size feature.
02 / Waterfall pump system
When the waterfall sits high on the property, the Angel line pushes head above 20 ft at low flow — the right fit for tall, narrow drops and long pipe runs.
03 / Waterfall pump system
Serious lift for large estates and commercial sites. Niagara pumps hold head approaching 50 ft, so water can travel a long way and still fall hard.
04 / Waterfall pump system
A lighter, corrosion-resistant take on the same duty. Composite construction keeps the pump durable in pond water while delivering head up to 45 ft.
05 / Waterfall pump system
The big one. Turbine pumps move very high volume at very high head for landmark waterfalls, resort features and large municipal projects.

Pump size depends on waterfall height, pipe length and diameter, and how much water you want falling. We help you size the system, plan the plumbing, and keep it running through the season.
