Little Giant submersible pond pump 475 GPH - PE-2.5F-PW 115V, 15 ft cord, continuous-duty

The Little Giant PE-2.5F-PW is a compact, continuous-duty submersible pump that moves up to 475 gallons per hour for small ponds, fountains, hydroponic systems and water-transfer tasks.

Built for steady, long-term operation, this epoxy-encapsulated direct-drive pump balances small size with reliable pressure and starting torque. Its protected motor, debris pre-screen, and 15-foot power cord make it a practical choice when space is limited but you still need consistent flow. The unit is CSA listed for the U.S. and Canada and tailored to a range of light commercial, industrial and residential applications.

How much flow and pressure can I expect from this pump?

The PE-2.5F-PW delivers up to 475 gallons per hour at a 1-foot lift and will run to a maximum shutoff at roughly 13.4 feet. Expect modest pressure suitable for fountains, small pond recirculation, or water feature heads rather than high-pressure irrigation systems.

• Maximum flow: 475 GPH at 1 ft lift
• Shutoff head: about 13.4 ft
• Maximum pressure: approximately 5.8 PSI
• Ideal for small water features and recirculation loops

What are the electrical and motor characteristics?

This model runs on standard 115V and is built for continuous-duty operation with thermal protection for the motor. It draws about 1.4 amps while consuming roughly 80 watts, making it energy-efficient for round-the-clock tasks.

• Voltage: 115 V AC
• Power draw: ~1.4 running amps / 80 watts
• Protection: thermally protected motor and epoxy encapsulation
• Approvals: CSA listed for USA and Canada

How does the pump handle debris and maintenance?

The PE-2.5F-PW includes a pre-screen to block larger particles from reaching the impeller, reducing the chance of clogging and prolonging service life. The compact housing is simple to clean and the direct-drive design reduces moving-part complexity.

• Included pre-screen filters out grit and plant debris
• Direct-drive impeller for straightforward performance
• Small footprint simplifies access and cleaning
• Epoxy-encapsulated electrical assembly resists moisture

What are the physical dimensions and connection details?

Designed to fit into tight spaces, this pump measures roughly 5.6 inches long by 3.96 inches wide by 4.02 inches high. It uses a threaded discharge fitting to connect to tubing or piping and ships with a generous 15-foot cord to reach nearby outlets without extra extension wiring.

• Compact size: approximately 5.6" L x 4.0" W x 4.0" H
• Threaded discharge: 3/8-inch MNPT for common fittings
• Cord length: 15-foot power cord for flexible placement
• Lightweight and easy to position in small basins

Who is this for? The Little Giant PE-2.5F-PW suits homeowners, landscapers and hobbyists who need a dependable small submersible pump for statuary fountains, small ornamental ponds, water displays, hydroponic setups, or light-duty industrial water transfer. If you want a compact, continuously rated pump with a protective pre-screen and a long power cord for flexible installation, this model is built for those exact needs.
