Looking for a pump around 1300gph

degibson84 · 09/16/2014, 06:22 AM

Currently running a rio hyper flow 20. This thing has recently gotten very loud and isn't running as strong as it used to.

I'm looking to find a pump around the same flow rate that won't make my house rattle.

Anyone!?

I use the Laguna Max-Flo 1350. It flows pretty well and is very energy efficient. You can pull the surround off of it so it isnt nearly as large. It is a submersible pump, so not sure if that fits your current set up.

1300 gph after head loss? Internal or external?

Many pumps that would work. What are you looking for specifically. I have DC pumps because I wanted adjustability and them to be quiet. Waveline fit that perfectly.

Just looking for cost and energy efficient. My current pump is 1290 before any headloss and is perfect. I can run it just about wide open. Only problem is it doesn't want to start back up and is getting very loud. Just want to replace it with something more reliable.

Laguna max flow 1350 or 1500. Askoll block. Super good pump and quiet.
