Default Damned pump finally died..

Our Gargoyle pump finally died.

Would is be better to wait for spring sales, or does anyone know who has
sales in the fall?

I want to replace that pump, and also get a above ground pump/uv filter
system as well.

We're already getting low 50s night temperatures here in NC...

sale as well as mag drive danners at reduced costs........

I would buy their pump, but as to their plants, you may be ahead of
the game looking up some of my posts regarding my and others
experiences with them....Short answer....poorer than poor.

Yeah I DID read those posts.. but if they are 80% off or so, 1 outta 4 would
be a deal.

I've had a in pond pump, and I'd like to get a bigger one, and split the
flow to the gargoyle spitter, and a smallish waterfall if possible.

I've posted a few times looking for a out of pond pump/uv filter combo, and
got some good leads as well..

My pump just died too, and actually this is the time of year that all kinds
of garden/outdoor stuff is on sale, and I found NO sales on pumps--just bit
the bullet and bought one--helps keep the pond from icing over too later in
the winter.
