Review: rated at 4200 GPH, produces an ample waterfall - This is our 2nd Little Giant WGP 95 due to an unsupervised pup destroyed the cord on the first after several years of excellent use. We were so pleased with the pump that we've replaced it with a duplicate. We have had our ponds about decade now, we've used a variety of pumps including external pumps designed for swimming pump use. By far this is the best pump for typical koi ponds. To prevent the intake from becoming clogged, we took a milk crate and added 1/4" wire mesh with a cutout for the pumps tubes and power cord. Now it's easy to unplug the pump and use a net to remove leaves and such from around the "pump cage". If we needed a larger cage we would have used one of those pump cages available from pond outlets for pondless waterfalls or for the cheaper route for the DIYer, we planned to use the white plastic trim molding available in the siding aisle to bolt together and attach the wire mesh to - but so far the milk crate is working out well and with it being dark is not visible on the bottom of the pond. I highly recommend the EPDM rubber liner such as Pond Liner, 45 Mil x 10' x 10' to use with this pump for a typical koi pond - be sure to order a large enough liner. If in doubt, go with the next largest size. When ordering this pump be sure to get the 1" tubing and hose clamps. If the hose connection is loose you can add a piece of cut off rubber liner to the hose fitting. There are two outflows so plan accordingly. We have one outlet running into a filter box and one running straight into the pond though I intend to add spitters at a later date.
Review: Company stands behind its product! - I use these pumps for a waterfall i have in my back yard. This is my third or fourth little giant pump of this type. They work pretty hard as its a larger water feature. they normally last around 3-4 years but the last one I bought (through desertcart) conked out after about 17 months. Usually the capacitor fails and you hear a humming noise but the impeller blade no longer turns. There isn't much way you can work on these - they were built to use and then discard. When the pump failed while still under its 3 year warranty I notified desertcart who pushed back and told me after a year I needed to go directly to the manufacturer. I called the 800 number on the pump box, left a message and received a callback from a customer service rep the next day. He started the warranty process and i had a new pump the following week. I did not have to return the failed pump. I consider that outstanding customer service. I will continue to use Little Giant pumps and suggest you consider them for any task requiring a submersible pump. They are a good value, easy to install and the company that makes them stands behind their product.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: why is the 5 lb container $2+ cheaper than the 14-oz container? is there something different about them?**
A: The container I received was dried out and useless ,looked like it had sat with the lid open for a good while or just very old stock. So I had to buy a small container at Home depo to finish the job I was working on.

**Q: Which hose and connectors are needed?**
A: Hi Jeri,  This is a "Dual Discharge" pump, meaning that you have the choice of using one discharge and leaving the other capped, or you can take off of both discharges and take water to two different destinations.    The first discharge on this pump is an FPT 1.25" fitting.  It also comes with a MPT to Barb adapter.   If you are using the kind of tubing that fits on a barb fitting, you could use 1.25" tubing and you would not need any adapters.  I would recommend using 1.5" or 2" tubing.  This would mean that you would need a 1.25" MPT to ... whatever connects to your type and size of tubing.     The second discharge on this pump is MPT 1.25"   This does not come with any adapter so you would need a 1.25" FPT to whatever size and type of tubing connector you want to use.     I hope this is helpful.   Sincerely, Nate at Practical Garden Ponds 484-356-5351

**Q: Can chlorinated water run through this pump?**
A: Yes! I've been using little Giant in my pool in Nevada for over six years with NO problems. A great pump.

**Q: What cycle is the pump 50 or 60?**
A: It is continuous, so 100% duty cycle.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Visited by the putty snatcher
*by G***Y on July 7, 2015*

I have mixed feelings giving this four stars. Why? Well, when I opened the lid, there was clearly a handful missing. You could see the finger marks! I took a picture. For most products, that would give you a weird feeling, wouldn't it? But still, there was at least 4.5 pounds left, and the price was still cheaper than 1 pound. So I'm using it anyway. I only needed about 4 ounces or so. The putty was in good condition, moist and very usable. I figure that even if whoever took some out had some disease, it would have died in the putty. I hope.
