* This pump can do a height of 1.3m equivalent of 7 aponix barrel ring segments. It provides a 5/8″ spigot to attach the hose to. This is a German model and it needs 220V and comes with a German electricity plug. It is in the end just a commodity submergible pump that can push liquid to at lease 1.3m high. You can/should use a local equivalent if your local electricity is not 220V!
You can increase the height of the barrel any time by adding more pieces / ring segments from our pieces area. If you exceed the max height your pump can push the liquid you will need a stronger pump. Please let us know if you like to go for a higher vertical barrel so we can advise on a larger pump and also provide the required number of pieces.
