About Blagdon Inpond 5 in 1 6000
The Blagdon Inpond 5 in 1 6000 is a combined in-pond solution that bundles a submersible pump, mechanical and biological filter media, a UV clarifier and decorative fountain and LED lighting features in a single unit. According to the manufacturer, the pump can move up to 1,500 litres per hour against a maximum head of 1.3 metres and is rated at 26.5 W power consumption. The filtration approach is described by Blagdon as mechanical and biological; a polymer wool cartridge is supplied as a consumable mechanical filter element and ceramic bio-media is shown as a listed spare part for the biological section. The product is supplied as a kit: Blagdon lists a water filter, pump, LED spotlight, UV clarifier intended for green-water control, fountain heads and associated extension pipes, a ball joint and a 1/2" fountain flow control among the pack contents. The product page shows an IP68 rating (submersible) and specifies 50 Hz. Cable lengths stated by the manufacturer are a 3 m mains cable and a 10 m low-voltage cable. The product listing also references replaceable consumables and spares (for example: UVC lamp, UVC quartz sleeve, transformer, ceramic bio media and impeller parts). Important manufacturer inconsistencies appear on the official page: the UV clarifier wattage is listed in different places as both 5 W and 9 W, and the page alternately states the kit includes three or four fountain heads. These contradictions are present on the official product page and are flagged in the limitations below. Several common technical details (hose/inlet diameters, external dimensions, weight, warranty term, explicit fish/koi pond volume ratings) are not provided on the product page.
Best for
Medium garden ponds (manufacturer-stated size class) where a combined in-pond pump, filter, UV clarifier and fountain/LED feature is wanted.
Things to consider
Manufacturer page contains internal contradictions: the UV clarifier wattage appears as both 5 W and 9 W in different sections of the official product page, so uvWatts is left null. The fountain head count is shown as both three and four on the same official page. Several common technical details are not provided on the product page or linked listing: inlet/outlet or hose diameters, external dimensions, weight, warranty length/terms, explicit fish or koi pond volume capacities and operating/rated pressure. Cable lengths are supplied by the manufacturer as two separate entries (3 m mains, 10 m low-voltage); because there are two different cable types the single cableLengthM field is left null and both lengths are noted in specifications. The official instruction manual is linked from the product page and may contain further definitive details; consult that PDF or the manufacturer for clarification of the UV wattage and fountain head count.
