Running a hydroponic system means dealing with reservoir dead zones where conventional pumps can't reach. The EcoPlus Convertible Bottom Draw Water Pump 730 GPH eliminates this problem with a patented bottom draw inlet that operates in less than 1/2 inch of water. For growers with slightly lower flow requirements, the EcoPlus Convertible Bottom Draw Water Pump (585 GPH) provides the same low-profile extraction capabilities to ensure you can extract every last drop from your reservoir while maintaining consistent flow throughout your entire growing cycle.
The EcoPlus Convertible Bottom Draw Pump stands alone as the first hydroponic pump to offer truly interchangeable outlet configurations. Switch between horizontal and vertical discharge positions without tools or complicated adjustments. The convertible fitting system adapts to deep water culture reservoirs, recirculating drip systems, and ebb-and-flow tables with equal ease. This US Patent Pending design represents a fundamental advance in pump versatility for commercial and hobbyist growers alike.
At 730 gallons per hour, this model delivers the circulation power needed for medium-sized operations running 50-150 gallon reservoirs. The bottom draw technology actively prevents sediment accumulation while ensuring your pump continues operating efficiently even during low-water conditions. Built for the demands of continuous nutrient circulation, the 730 GPH model handles both oxygenation and feeding duties; for maximum dissolved oxygen levels, many growers supplement their system with an EcoPlus 80W Commercial Air Pump.

The bottom draw inlet is positioned at the base of the pump, allowing it to pull water from the very bottom of your reservoir. This design enables operation in less than 1/2 inch of water, ensuring you can utilize nearly all available water without the pump losing prime or running dry.
The convertible outlet uses interchangeable fittings that can be repositioned to direct water flow either horizontally or vertically. Simply detach the fitting, rotate it to your desired orientation, and reattach it securely. Refer to the included fitting guide for detailed instructions on proper installation.
The 730 GPH flow rate is ideal for medium hydroponic systems, typically reservoirs ranging from 50 to 150 gallons. It provides robust circulation for nutrient distribution and oxygenation in DWC, ebb and flow, and NFT systems. This model offers increased capacity over the 585 GPH version for growers with larger setups.
This model is designed as a submersible-only pump and must remain fully underwater during operation. If your setup specifically requires external plumbing, consider the EcoPlus Eco 633 Fixed Flow Submersible/Inline Pump which is rated for both applications. The submersible design ensures quiet operation and efficient cooling through water contact.
The pump includes a set of interchangeable outlet fittings designed to accommodate standard hydroponic tubing sizes. The fitting guide PDF provides detailed specifications on compatible tubing diameters and installation instructions for each fitting type included in the package.
Regular cleaning every 2-4 weeks is recommended to prevent mineral buildup and maintain optimal flow rates. You can also use an EcoPlus Large Pump Filter Bag to significantly reduce the amount of debris reaching the impeller. Disassemble the pump according to the manual, rinse all components, and remove any debris from the intake.
Yes, the EcoPlus Convertible Bottom Draw Pump is designed for continuous operation in hydroponic systems. If heat buildup becomes a concern during 24/7 operation, an EcoPlus 1/4 HP Water Chiller is an excellent solution for keeping reservoir temperatures stable. Ensure the pump remains fully submerged at all times during operation.
The patented bottom draw inlet and convertible outlet system set this pump apart from conventional designs. While most pumps require several inches of water to operate effectively, this model works in less than 1/2 inch, maximizing water usage. The convertible outlet provides installation flexibility not found in fixed-outlet pumps.
