Alien Hydroponics V-System Vortex 1100W Water Pump — 17700 L/H

Struggling with nutrient solution temperatures creeping up and stressing your plants? Submersible pumps are often the culprit, transferring excess heat directly into your reservoir and risking root health. The Alien Hydroponics V-System Vortex 1100W Water Pump is the solution, engineered with an innovative external, air-cooled design to keep your system running cool and efficiently.

This powerful pump is the heart of high-performance setups like the Alien Hydroponics V-System 12-pot kit, delivering a massive 17,700 L/H flow rate to ensure consistent nutrient circulation. By positioning the pump outside the header pot, it dissipates heat into the air, not your water. This maintains an optimal, stable temperature for your root zone, dramatically improving nutrient uptake and promoting explosive growth. For smaller setups, consider the 750W Vortex Pump, or for maximum flow, the powerful 1500W model. Easy access for maintenance makes this pump a reliable and user-friendly cornerstone of any serious V-System.

FAQs

What is the main advantage of this pump being external?+

Its external, air-cooled design prevents heat transfer to your nutrient solution, protecting roots from stress and promoting healthier growth. This design also allows for much easier access for maintenance compared to submersible pumps.

Is this pump compatible with other hydroponic systems?+

While it's specifically engineered for the Alien Hydroponics V-System, its powerful flow rate and standard fittings may work with other large-scale custom RDWC hydroponic systems. Always check your system's specific plumbing and flow requirements before installation.

What size V-System is the 1100W pump suitable for?+

The 1100W model is a high-output pump ideal for larger V-System configurations, such as the 12-pot or 16-pot systems, ensuring vigorous and consistent circulation throughout the entire setup.

How does the air-cooling feature work?+

The pump's motor is designed to use the ambient air to dissipate heat generated during operation. This is a significant advantage over submersible pumps, which release that same heat directly into your water, raising temperatures and reducing oxygen levels.

Do I need a different pump for a smaller setup?+

Yes, for smaller systems, you might consider a model with a lower flow rate to avoid excessive turbulence. Alien Hydroponics offers various pump sizes, like the 550W Vortex Pump, to perfectly match your specific needs.
