Alien Hydroponics V-System Vortex 250W Water Pump — 11700 L/H

Struggling with high water temperatures in your hydroponic setup? The Alien Hydroponics Jet-Stream Vortex Water Pump is the solution, engineered to maintain a cool and stable nutrient environment for explosive root growth. This pump is the heart of the revolutionary V-System, delivering precision and efficiency for optimal plant health.

Unlike submersible pumps that add heat to your reservoir, the Vortex is placed externally. Its innovative air-cooled design actively prevents heat transfer, protecting your roots from stress and rot. This cooler environment is rich in dissolved oxygen, which dramatically improves nutrient uptake and promotes robust, accelerated growth cycles. This pump is a core component in many Alien Hydroponics V-System DWC kits, ensuring reliability across your entire setup. Plus, its outboard placement makes routine checks and maintenance completely hassle-free.

FAQs

What is the main benefit of the Vortex pump being external?+

Its external, air-cooled design prevents heat transfer to your nutrient solution, keeping it cooler. This protects roots from stress and rot, promoting healthier growth and maximizing oxygen levels.

Is this pump compatible with systems other than the Alien V-System?+

This pump is specifically engineered for peak performance with the Alien V-System. While it may work with other custom setups, it's optimized to be the heart of complete kits like the 8-pot V-System.

What is the flow rate of this pump?+

The 250W model has a powerful flow rate of 11,700 liters per hour, ensuring rapid and consistent circulation throughout your hydroponic system.

How does a cooler nutrient solution help my plants?+

Cooler water holds more dissolved oxygen, which is crucial for root respiration and nutrient absorption. This leads to faster growth, stronger plants, and potentially higher yields.

My setup is larger. Do you offer a more powerful pump?+

Yes, for larger DWC hydroponics systems, Alien Hydroponics offers more powerful models, such as the 750W Vortex Pump, to meet increased circulation demands.

How difficult is maintenance on the Vortex pump?+

Maintenance is simple. Because the pump is located outside the reservoir, you can access it easily for cleaning and inspection without disturbing your plants or draining the system.
