Submersible Pumps for Cellars, Fountains and Gardens
Submersible Pumps for Cellars, Fountains and Gardens · Technical Overview
The published range covers three products for distinct scenarios. The Aqua Mini 400 is a compact 0.37 kW (0.5 HP) pump at 230 V with stainless steel body, impeller and shaft, a 1"¼ discharge and a performance of around 9 m³/h maximum flow and 7 m manometric head — ideal for domestic drainage, irrigation from shallow wells, water transfer and filling small circuits. The Baby Battery series, powered by 12 V or 24 V DC, is the choice for power-outage emergencies, remote installations, boats and vehicles — it can run from a car battery or a backup battery bank, without relying on the mains. The PVT series, with an integrated grinder, is designed for off-grid dwellings without sewer connection, where fibrous domestic matter must be cut before pumping the effluent.
The Baby Battery and PVT series are also presented — alongside the full domestic and industrial drainage range — in the main Drainage Pumps category, where they can be compared against vortex, twin-channel and single-channel alternatives. When the installation justifies automation, the AC versions can be commanded by a JOVAL Electrical Control Panel with digital protection against dry run and overload.
Frequently asked questions
-
What is a small-format submersible pump used for around the home?
For domestic utility tasks — draining a flooded cellar, emptying ornamental fountains for cleaning, transferring water between tanks, irrigating a garden from a shallow well, or feeding small garden circuits. They differ from industrial drainage pumps in their compact size and their use with clean water.
-
What is the difference between the Aqua Mini 400 and an industrial drainage pump?
The Aqua Mini 400 is a compact 0.37 kW stainless-steel pump built for clean or lightly soiled water up to around 9 m³/h and 7 m head. Industrial drainage pumps are larger, more powerful and fitted with impellers able to pass solids and fibres.
-
What is a Baby Battery 12/24 V DC pump used for?
For scenarios with no mains power available — power outages, remote installations, boats, vehicles or emergency situations. It can run from a car battery or a backup battery bank, allowing immediate pumping without depending on the grid.
-
Is the PVT series for the same application as the Aqua Mini?
No. The PVT integrates a grinder and is built for off-grid dwellings without sewer connection — it cuts fibrous matter (sanitary textiles, food-waste fibres) before pumping the effluent. The Aqua Mini 400 is for clean or lightly soiled water, not sewage.
-
Can these pumps be automated with a control panel?
Yes. The AC models (Aqua Mini 400 and PVT) can be commanded by a JOVAL Electrical Control Panel with digital dry-run and overload protection. The Baby Battery is designed for direct DC operation without external automation.
