Garden Pump Intake Filter

This is a vital modification for 3/8in line leading directly to those high-quality 8-10 dollar BLDC pumps available on Amazon and eBay. These excellent pumps perform flawlessly, but they are prone to clogging if they draw in anything larger than a few millimeters. Some plants suffered from this issue after the pump ceased functioning, however, no problems have occurred since installing these filters. To create an effective intake filter, take some bug screen from a local hardware store and cut it to a length 1.5 times the circumference of the filter as well as from the base up to where the taper begins. Roll up this material tightly and secure the top with a zip tie. Ensure that the screen extends downward into the channel surrounding the base. Pump link: https://a.co/icwkEhy
