Description
The EasyPro EPS1300 Eco-Clear Submersible Pump is a compact, energy-efficient pond and waterfall pump rated at 1,400 GPH maximum with a 14.5-foot maximum head, drawing just 55 watts on a 30-foot cord. Housed in a protective outer housing that shields the motor from debris, the EPS1300 uses a ceramic impeller capable of passing solids up to 3/8-inch in diameter — significantly larger than most pond pumps at this flow range, making it an effective choice for ponds with natural bottom material and moderate debris loads.
The adjustable direction outlet accepts 1”, 1.25”, or 1.5” step barb fittings plus a 1.5” PVC adaptor for rigid-pipe connections. The EPS1300 is also the pump component of EasyPro’s Eco-Clear complete pond filtration kits (ECK13U, ECK13UDX), compatible with the EC1300 and EC1300U Eco-Clear pressurized filters. Backed by a 3-year warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the EasyPro EPS1300 "Eco-Clear" technology different?
The EasyPro Eco-Clear series uses a permanent magnet motor in a design EasyPro describes as "asynchronous mag-drive" — combining the high-torque capability needed for solids-handling with the energy efficiency of a magnetic-drive architecture. At just 55 watts for 1,400 GPH, it delivers approximately 25.5 GPH per watt, which is exceptional for a pump designed to pass debris up to 3/8 inch in diameter. The epoxy-sealed motor is 100% oil-free and fish-safe.
Can the EPS1300 handle solids and debris without clogging?
Yes. The EPS1300 features a ceramic impeller designed to pass solids up to 3/8 inch in diameter — significantly larger than the typical 1/8" to 1/4" tolerance of standard pond pumps. The protective outer housing acts as a pre-filter, intercepting larger debris before it reaches the impeller. This makes the EPS1300 well-suited for ponds with natural bottom substrate, leaf debris, and moderate organic loads. For best performance and longevity, install in an EasyPro skimmer or pump vault with a debris screen for oversized material.
What is the maximum head height for the EPS1300 1,400 GPH pump?
The EasyPro EPS1300 has a maximum head height of 14.5 feet. At typical residential waterfall heights, the actual flow will be lower than the maximum 1,400 GPH — consult the performance curve chart in the product gallery for flow rates at specific head heights. For maximum flow efficiency, use 1.5” or 2” tubing on the discharge run and minimize elbows to reduce friction losses.
Is this pump safe for koi ponds and water gardens with fish?
Yes. The EPS1300 uses an epoxy-sealed, oil-free motor — completely fish-safe for freshwater ponds from day one. The permanent magnet design has no shaft seal that could wear and allow oil contamination. The quiet operation is also beneficial for koi, which can be stressed by excessive vibration or noise from pump installations. For freshwater use only — not for saltwater or high-chemical water. A GFCI-protected outdoor outlet is recommended.
What plumbing fittings are included with the EPS1300?
The EPS1300 includes an adjustable direction outlet assembly with:
- Step barb fitting compatible with 1”, 1.25”, and 1.5” flexible tubing or kink-free hose
- 1.5” PVC adaptor for connection to rigid PVC pipe (use with rubber coupling, not included)
The primary outlet is 2”. The outlet direction is adjustable, allowing installation flexibility in skimmer boxes, pump vaults, and direct pond placement without additional elbows. The 30-foot power cord provides ample reach for most landscape layouts.
How do I winterize the EasyPro Eco-Clear submersible pump?
In climates with freezing winters, remove the EPS1300 before hard freezes arrive:
- Remove the pump from the water and disconnect the power cord
- Open the lid and rinse the housing, foam pre-filter, and ceramic impeller with fresh water
- Remove mineral scale from the impeller with a mild white vinegar solution and a soft brush
- Store in a frost-free indoor location, ideally submerged in a bucket of clean water to prevent the internal seals from drying out
What is the warranty coverage for the EasyPro EPS series?
The EasyPro EPS1300 is backed by a 3-year limited manufacturer’s warranty from EasyPro. This warranty reflects the pump’s design for continuous duty operation — ceramic impeller for wear resistance, epoxy-sealed motor for durability, and a protective housing designed for real-world pond debris loads.
