Koi pond and water garden equipment and supplies at discount prices! Pond design, consulting, liners, pumps, filters, UV sterilizers, brass sculptures and much more.

The equation for horsepower is:

Brake Horsepower = (gallons per minute) x (total dynamic pump head) / (3960) x (0.6 efficiency)

or Gallons per minute = (Brake Horsepower) x (3960) x (0.6) / (total dynamic pump head) 

So regardless of what our pump head is, if we double the horsepower we will double the flow at that pump head. Or if we go from 1.5 HP to 2.0 HP we will increase the flow by 33%; going from 1.5 HP to 2.5 HP we increase the flow by 66%, as long as the pipe diameter will allow that flow.

Pond pumps, filters, UV sterilizers, EPDM liners, heaters, and all supplies!
