The Atlantic Water Gardens MD1500 TidalWave Mag Drive pump is a compact, energy-efficient submersible unit engineered for small ponds, fountains, waterfalls and other garden water features. Built for reliable continuous operation, the MD1500 delivers high flow at modest head heights while keeping maintenance simple with a removable pre-filter and tool-free volute access.

  • High performance: Up to 1,560 GPH maximum flow (model MD1500) with strong mid-range performance for small to medium features.
  • Reliable power: Designed for 110–120V operation with a 20' power cord for flexible placement (use GFCI-protected circuit).
  • Compact, serviceable design: Oversized ceramic shaft and replaceable impeller assembly reduce wear; quarter-turn volute and removable pre-filter make cleaning fast.
  • Plumbing-ready: Oversized male threaded inlet (1½") and 1" outlet; includes 1"–1½" outlet adapter to fit common kits and check valves.
  • Durable construction: Non-corrosive composite housing and sealed magnetic-induction motor for long service life in freshwater installations.
  • Included accessories & warranty: Pre-filter and 1"–1½" adapter included; backed by a five-year limited manufacturer warranty on the MD-Series (impeller/rotor exceptions apply).

Installation notes: operate the MD1500 fully submerged in fresh water only; avoid saltwater, sewage, flammable or corrosive liquids. For best results, place the pump on a stable, level surface, keep the pre-filter free of debris, and follow the included MD-Series manual for start-up, troubleshooting, and winterizing. Regular monthly inspection and cleaning of the pre-filter and impeller will help maintain rated performance and extend pump life.
