PerformancePro Cascade High RPM

The PerformancePro Cascade High RPM is a compact, high-head external pond pump purpose-built for waterfalls, stream features, and fountain systems. With 1.5-inch ports and head pressure ranging from 55 to 86 feet, the Cascade pushes water to heights that most small-port pumps can't reach — delivering 2,400 to 8,760 GPH across six models.

The Cascade line runs at 3450 RPM with ODP (Open Drip-Proof) motors, making them well-suited for covered pump houses or sheltered installations. Models range from 1/3 HP to 2 HP, with all six offering dual 115V/230V wiring. The 1.5-inch ports match common waterfall and stream plumbing, so integration into existing systems is straightforward.

Where the Cascade shines is in water feature applications — tall cascading waterfalls, elevated stream heads, and multi-tier fountain designs where head pressure matters more than raw volume. If your pond's primary pump handles filtration and you need a dedicated feature pump that can push water uphill, the Cascade High RPM is engineered for exactly that job.
