The PondLyfe 1 is best suited for small ponds up to 1.5 acres and 30 inches deep.
What cabinet colors are available?
Stone, Sand, or Garden Green — all at the same price, so you can pick whichever blends best with your landscape.
Do I need the sound reduction kit?
It's optional. The compressor already runs quietly, but the sound reduction kit further dampens noise if the unit will sit close to a patio or home.
Does this come with tubing?
You can choose from no tubing, or 50, 100, 250, or 500 feet of weighted tubing at checkout, depending on your setup.
Is this safe to run continuously?
Yes — it's built for 24/7 continuous operation and will restart automatically under pressure after a power interruption.
