The PerformancePro Artesian2 High Flow Pump is a self-priming centrifugal water pump designed for koi ponds and large water features.

Serious flow does not have to mean a high power bill. This pump uses corrosion-resistant polypropylene and a high-efficiency motor.

Flow rates range from 7,380 GPH to 14,040 GPH. It works perfectly for backyard ponds or commercial-scale installations.

Sitting above the water line, it removes the risk of oil leaks or electrical hazards often found with in-pond pumps.

Its self-priming design and integrated strainer pot ensure fast installation, easy startup, and routine cleaning.

What Is the PerformancePro Artesian2 High Flow Pump?

This is a self-priming centrifugal pump for owners who need high flow at a low amp draw. It replaces the classic Artesian line.

The housing is made of polypropylene to resist corrosion. The shaft seal uses 316 stainless steel for a long lifespan.

It features 2" FNPT inlet and discharge ports. It self-primes upon startup, allowing mounting above the water level.

Why Choose the Artesian2 High Flow for Your Pond

High Flow at Low Energy Cost

Sealed motors deliver efficient performance per amp. This keeps monthly costs lower than standard pumps with similar output.

The 1/2 HP model moves 7,380 GPH at 8.4ft of head. The 3 HP version reaches 14,040 GPH at 24ft of head.

Easy Above-Water Installation

Unlike a concrete pump used in construction, this unit is for water. Its self-priming feature makes servicing much easier.

Durable Construction

The polypropylene housing and 316 stainless steel seal resist the typical abrasion found in water gardens.

Quiet, Continuous-Duty Operation

The pump and motor run quietly. This is vital for installations near patios, decks, or windows.

Out-of-Water Safety

Operating externally eliminates risks to your fish. It is much safer than using a fuel pump or submerged system in a koi pond.
