Varieties of Gardena pumping stations

Nowadays, many in private homes are seeking to use their own well or well for water supply of the dwelling. But for intermittent water supply with good pressure requires a specialized pumping station. In the market of equipment for the house there is a fairly large selection of these units. The Gardena pumping station deserves special attention. What it is, and what types are produced by this manufacturer, will be discussed in this article.

Gardena was founded in 1961 in Germany, and since then has come a long way in its development, winning a leading position in the global market for gardening and private households. Among the products of this company you will find everything so that your personal plot will delight you, without taking much time during the care of it.Gardena manufactures irrigation system fittings, garden tools, lawn mowers, as well as home pumps and pumping stations.

Gardena pumping stations are designed to provide water from an external source, such as a well, and represent a whole range of equipment. They consist of the pump itself, the hydroaccumulator, as well as the control system.

Domestic water station Gardena can operate autonomously. Thanks to the hydroaccumulator, it accumulates a certain amount of water, and for some time it can work without power supply. Therefore, these pumping stations can be installed even in places where electricity is often cut off.

Works pressure station Gardena as follows. The pressure switch installed in this unit automatically controls the level of pressure in the water tank. When the amount of liquid in the tank decreases, the pump is turned on, which fills the tank to the level required for supplying the pressure with liquid.At the same time, the pressure in the hydroaccumulator can be adjusted to the parameters you need, thereby changing the pressure of the water supplied.

Gardena pumping stations can optionally be equipped with a mechanical cleaning filter. It will be necessary if water comes from a contaminated source. But if in your well there are a lot of extraneous dissolved impurities, for example, rust or various salts, then you will need to install additional filters to provide drinking water at home.

Pressure stations of this manufacturer are superficial. They are mounted near the water supply source. Water enters the device using a pipe lowered into a well or well.

Gardena water stations have several advantages:

• Like most devices manufactured in Germany, these units are of high quality and meet all international standards for this type of device.
• The lifetime of these pumping stations is quite large. But in order for the device to serve you for many years, it needs periodic technical inspection and the elimination of minor flaws. The manufacturer gives a guarantee on the tank in 5 years, but after this time it is possible to replace only this accumulative element, while you do not have to spend money on the station as a whole.
• During the work of almost all models of units, they are almost inaudible. The noise level is minimal.

• Most models of hydropower stations are equipped with an Eco system, which does not allow the instrument to operate if no water enters it.
• Pumping stations of this manufacturer are represented by four types of models, which will allow you to choose the unit with the most optimal parameters for you.
• More expensive modifications of the units are equipped with a liquid crystal screen, where you can monitor the parameters of the instrument.
• Each pumping station in the kit has detailed instructions that will tell about all the intricacies of installation and operation of this unit.

There are several aspects that affect the choice of the Gardena pumping station for the dacha or residential building:

• The required amount of water. The station needs to be selected depending on how many bathrooms are in your home, and how many people live in the house. It is not necessary to purchase a unit with a large storage of water, if you do not need it, because the water in the tank will stagnate and lose its taste. So, for a dacha where a small family lives, it is enough to purchase a station with a 25-liter accumulator and a volume of distilled liquid up to 4000 liters per hour.

• Maximum depth and height of rising water. Depending on how far from the surface of the water is the water, you will need a different power device. Gardena pumping stations are designed for a water depth of 8 m. The height to which the device can raise water varies from 25 to 50 meters.
• Additional functions. It is better to choose devices with protection against overheating and dry running. They will stop the operation of the device if it is not supplied with liquid, as well as in the event that the drive temperature exceeds the permissible parameters.

Gardena pumping stations feature several variations. Here are the most popular ones:

This unit can be attributed to the most affordable, so it is the most popular in our market. It is equipped with a tank of 25 liters, capable of lifting water from a depth of 8 meters and feeding it to a forty-meter height. The performance of the device is 2800 l / h. The power of the device is 650 watts.

This device is quite suitable for providing water or a small private house. The kit includes a coarse water filter, and the device is equipped with a function of protection against overheating and a mechanical barometer. Eco system in the device is missing.

The cost of the pump station Gardena 3000/4 Classic is about 12 000 rubles. A newer version of this device - the Gardena 3000/4 Classic Eco - is equipped with a dry run protection system, but such a station will cost about 17,000 rubles.

This is the most reliable pumping station in the range of this manufacturer. Power device is 850 watts. The unit is able to lift water from a depth of 8 meters, feed it up to 45 m and distill to 3,500 liters per hour. At the same time, the capacity of the hydroaccumulator is, as in the previous model, 25 l.

The device has an LCD screen, equipped with a thermal protection system and protection against dry running. It is possible to connect an additional pump to this pumping station. But this device is quite noisy, the noise level is 90 dB. Therefore, if you install a pumping station in a residential building, then the room where the unit will be located will require additional insulation. The cost of the Gardena 4000/5 Comfort model is about 23,000 rubles.

The most powerful pumping station of the entire model range of this manufacturer, capable of distilling up to 4500 liters of water per hour. The pressure that the unit injects in the system is 5 Bar. He is able to raise the water to a height of 50 meters. The station is equipped with a stainless tank, protection systems against overheating and dry running, as well as a mode of economical power consumption. The cost of this device is about 33 000 rubles.

Buyers speak about Gardena domestic water stations mostly positively. The device perfectly performs its functions without delivering practically any problems to the owners, it economically consumes electricity. There is a choice of both simpler and cheaper options for giving, as well as more powerful and automated models for a rather large house.

Among the shortcomings, only the cost of some units was noted, which for some buyers seemed a bit overpriced.
