Pond Pump Issues? Check These Solutions First!

• The pump may be clogged with leaves or algae. Clean the intake and filters to keep it running smoothly.
• If the pump is not fully submerged or blocked, it may overheat. Ensure it’s free of debris and fully underwater.
• Damaged electrical wires can cause short circuits. Inspect cords for wear or water exposure.
• If the pump is plugged into a GFCI outlet, check if the “Reset” button has popped. Press it, and if it trips again, there may be an electrical fault.

If These Fixes Didn’t Work, it Might be Time for a New Pump
