Danner® Pondmaster® Fountain-Mag Magnetic Drive Water Pump - 80 GPH

Energy-Efficient Magnetic-Drive Pump for Fountains, Statuary & Small Ponds, 80 GPH

The Danner® Pondmaster® Fountain-Mag® is an energy-efficient magnetic-drive pump built for fountains, statuary, and small ponds. At 80 GPH, it is well suited for small garden fountains, piped statuary, and shallow water conditions, and its magnetic-drive design eliminates shaft seals for quieter, lower-maintenance operation.

Running a magnetic-drive pump continuously costs less to operate than a comparable shaft-driven motor, and the fully submersible design keeps installation simple: drop it into the basin or pond and connect power.

Key Features & Benefits

• Magnetic-drive design — no shaft seals to wear out, for quiet, reliable continuous operation.
• 80 GPH flow rate — matched to fountain, statuary, and small-pond applications.
• Energy efficient — low power draw keeps operating costs down even when running continuously.
• Submersible design — safe for fully submerged use in fountain basins and small ponds.
• Application fit — well suited for small garden fountains, piped statuary, and shallow water conditions.

Who Should Use This

Growers and hobbyists who want a quiet, energy-efficient pump for fountain features, water statuary, or small pond circulation are the direct fit for the Fountain-Mag® series.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does magnetic drive improve on a standard motor?

Magnetic-drive pumps have no shaft seal, which is typically the first component to fail in a conventional motor. Removing that wear point means a longer service life, quieter operation, and lower maintenance costs over time.

Is this pump submersible?

Yes — the Fountain-Mag® is designed for fully submersible operation in a basin, fountain, or small pond. It should remain completely covered by water while running.

Can I use this in a small pond, not just a fountain?

Yes — the Fountain-Mag® series works in small ponds as well as fountains and statuary. Match the GPH rating to your feature's size so the flow looks proportional rather than overpowering.

Is this pump energy efficient to run continuously?

Yes — magnetic-drive technology delivers high efficiency, keeping electricity costs down even when the pump runs around the clock. That efficiency is a main reason growers choose magnetic drive over older shaft-driven designs.
