INTRODUCTION
Alpine’s Eco-Sphere™ high performance pumps are ideal for ltration systems, waterfalls, and ponds. Engineered
to be highly energy ecient while maintaining maximum output. Our durable “pre-lter” pump cage minimizes pump
damage and clogging by selectively screening larger debris particles. Pumps feature a convenient carrying handle
and 360° rotating adapters for easy placement. Includes “click t” connecters to allow simple disassembly for routine
maintenance and compatibility with other Alpine series pond systems. For select models, the precise controller enables
pumps to customize and adjust water ow on any application.
For a car to stay in great condition, proper maintenance is required. Therefore, Alpine suggests that once a week,
you verify that the pump is performing adequately. If you detect a drop in pump performance (such as a decrease in
water ow from the pump or to the waterfall), rst clean the pump’s pre-lter cage and the tubing connected to the
pump. If the water ow is still not fully restored to its original performance, simply clean the impeller and internal pump
body. (See pages 3 & 4 for maintenance instructions)
