Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the Atlantic TT9000 TidalWave3 Asynchronous Pump?

The Atlantic TT9000 TidalWave3 Asynchronous Pump is a high-flow submersible pond pump designed for large ponds, waterfalls, streams, and water gardens. Its asynchronous motor provides powerful water circulation for compatible pond filtration systems and continuously operating water features.

2. What is the maximum flow rate of the Atlantic TT9000 pond pump?

The Atlantic TT9000 has a maximum rated flow of 8,800 gallons per hour (GPH). According to the manufacturer's flow chart, it delivers approximately 7,470 GPH at 5 feet of head, 5,990 GPH at 10 feet, 4,260 GPH at 15 feet, 2,595 GPH at 20 feet, and 1,005 GPH at 25 feet. Actual flow depends on pumping height and plumbing resistance.

3. Is the Atlantic TT9000 suitable for large waterfalls?

Yes, the Atlantic TT9000 is designed for high-flow applications such as large waterfalls, streams, and decorative water features. Choose the pump based on waterfall width, desired water depth, vertical lift, and plumbing layout to ensure sufficient water flow at the outlet.

4. Can the Atlantic TT9000 be used with a pond filtration system?

Yes, the Atlantic TT9000 can circulate pond water through compatible filtration systems. Before installation, check the filter's recommended flow rate and account for head loss from pipe length, fittings, and elevation changes to ensure the pump provides the required flow.

5. How much electricity does the Atlantic TT9000 pump use?

The Atlantic TT9000 is rated at 120 volts, 5.1 amps, and 587 watts according to the manufacturer's product catalog. Actual energy consumption depends on operating conditions and daily running time. Use a properly protected GFCI circuit and follow the manufacturer's electrical safety instructions.

6. What are the inlet and outlet sizes of the Atlantic TT9000?

The Atlantic TT9000 features a 2-inch MIPT inlet and outlet connections listed as 2-inch FIPT and 3-inch MIPT options in the manufacturer's catalog. Confirm the required connection and compatible fittings for your plumbing setup before purchasing or installing the pump.

7. How long is the power cord on the Atlantic TT9000?

The Atlantic TT9000 comes with a 20-foot power cord, providing flexibility when positioning the pump in a suitable pond or pump chamber. Keep electrical connections protected from water and use the required GFCI protection.

8. Does the Atlantic TT9000 have a clog-resistant pre-filter?

Yes, the TT9000 features a large pre-filter with generous intake openings designed to resist clogging. Its three-vane hybrid impeller helps maintain water flow and handle solids. Regularly inspect and clean the pre-filter to prevent debris buildup and maintain performance.

9. Is the Atlantic TT9000 suitable for hard-water environments?

The Atlantic TidalWave3 TT-Series is designed with increased resistance to fouling in hard-water environments. Regular cleaning remains important to help prevent mineral deposits and debris from affecting water flow and pump performance.

10. What are the dimensions of the Atlantic TT9000 TidalWave3 Pump?

The Atlantic TT9000 measures approximately 11 inches long, 7.25 inches wide, and 8 inches high. Its compact design helps it fit into suitable pond pump chambers and water-feature installations while providing high-volume water circulation.

11. How do you clean and maintain the Atlantic TT9000 pump?

Disconnect the power before cleaning or servicing the pump. Remove debris from the pre-filter and inspect the rotor, impeller, and cooling screen according to the manufacturer's instructions. The TT9000 volute requires removal of five screws for access. Never operate the pump without being fully submerged, and store it indoors when removed for extended periods.

12. What warranty comes with the Atlantic TT9000 pump?

The Atlantic TidalWave3 TT-Series includes a three-year limited manufacturer's warranty. The warranty is subject to the manufacturer's terms and exclusions, including improper use, running the pump without full submersion, and failure to use a dedicated circuit. Keep your proof of purchase and consult the current warranty documentation for complete details.
