pump able to handle high head pressure

[addy1]

What pump would any of you recommend that can handle a slope?
Total Vertical Height (Dynamic Head Pressure) is around 30

We have one circulating the pond, so gph is not important.

Gosh if I knew I'd help but I can't help ya on this one :sniffles:

Lol thanks jw. I have found some options, but the amps are up there! Even a shallow well pump would work. I am hoping someone knows of one that will pump up the slope with out eating out the bank. It will be on a timer, keep the stream and little ponds healthy and flushed of mosquito's. The little ponds 9x9 are being enjoyed by frogs and water bugs.

The sequence Power Primer 6300PRM77 would do the job but it does use 1496 amps. It could pump up 40' at 4,200 GPH it also requires 230 volt.

that would be sweet, taherrmann, thanks for the info, but we are going to get a lower flow, less amp pump. Not worried about having white water coming down the stream, just flow to keep the mosquitoes out of the small ponds and the water fresh. It is also part of my bio filter, plants in each little pond with their frog buddies.

How about free if you can find a handyman to build it:

Neat, we could probably do that, but ended up getting a harbor freight pump for $39.00 that handles 114 feet of head............. the flow is perfect for what we want, i.e. no white water lol
