From the manufacturer


  • Simple and fast way to remove debris and decaying organic matter
  • Different nozzle head options for every pond and pool application
  • Debris collection bag for discharge
  • Clear Extension tube (1.6 ft.) for easy visual inspection
  • Compact design and built-in handle allow for easy movement and transportation

PondoVac Classic Pond, Pool and Wet Vacuum

For over 10 years, the OASE PondoVac Classic has been cleaning ponds of sludge and large debris. Automatic activation and emptying are possible through an intelligent technology which senses when the collection tank is full, stops the motor, and then resumes once the tank is empty.

The debris collection bag also attaches to the discharge hose of the vacuum so you can recycle the vacuumed water and capture the debris which can then be used as a natural fertilizer. Compact design and built-in handle allow for easy movement and transportation. The PondoVac Classic includes four nozzles to cover all applications. Also included is a clear extension tube (1.6 feet long), which allows easy visual inspection to monitor operation.

Alternating Suction and Discharge

The PondoVac Classic uses a single chamber suction system that automatically alternates between suction and draining. This means that the vacuum fills with material cleaned out from the pond then once the chamber is full, discharges its contents automatically without taking the time to stop and empty it manually.

Extremely Powerful Motor

The PondoVac Classic utilizes a 1200 watt motor that has a maximum suction height of 6 feet. That means you can use the PondoVac Classic to reach areas of the pond up to 6 feet deep and have full functionality. Cleaning a deep pond has never been easier.

Multiple Attachments for Multiple Jobs

The PondoVac Classic comes standard with a multitude of nozzle attachments. Nozzles range from cleaning through gravel to flat surfaces and even removing string algae. There are no problems that the PondoVac Classic can't handle.

Customers like the ease of cleaning with the pond vacuum. They mention it does a nice job cleaning debris and algae, and it works without a problem. The catch bag is fairly easy to clean, and the vacuum is effective at getting detritus off the bottom of the Pond.

"...The vacuum did a nice job cleaning debris and algae. The hose did not clog with leaves. However it does not remove string algae from a object...." Read more

"...Easy setup and use, easy clean-up, very nice suction (we can always use more...) and, in the end, worth the price I was finally willing to pay...." Read more

"...I don't have to turn this on and off. It automatically stops vacuuming and releases it out of the draining hose...." Read more

"great for cleaning a pool!!!..." Read more

Customers have mixed opinions about the value of the outdoor living product. Some say it's well worth the money, while others say it’s an overpriced shopvac with a cheap discharge bag.

"...very nice suction (we can always use more...) and, in the end, worth the price I was finally willing to pay...." Read more

69 customers mention44 positive25 negative

Customers are mixed about the suction of the outdoor living product. Some mention that it has great suction power, and the sucker time is not bad. However, others say that the sucction is not that strong, the bag to filter out the return water does not attach very well, and that the newest model has a shorter suction hose and electric cord.

"...Easy setup and use, easy clean-up, very nice suction (we can always use more...) and, in the end, worth the price I was finally willing to pay...." Read more

"...of the drainage hose but it is just a drawstring which seldom stays on the drainage hose...." Read more

"...The vacuum had good suction and only once did I have to clear debris from a nozzle. It easily took up silt and debris until the pool was empty...." Read more

"It is easy assemble and use, the suction working good!" Read more

64 customers mention27 positive37 negative

Customers are mixed about the water flow of the product. Some like that the water gets redistributed back in the pond, it's good at emptying the collected water every 5-10 seconds, and it watered their yard when it releases the water. However, others say that it will drain a pond very quickly and that the container has to be drained carefully to make sure the drain hose does not come off.

"...you are filling at the same time vacuuming as this vacuum can really drain a pond fast." Read more

"...That mucky water is great fertilizer. It's light weight and can be easily stored in a large plastic trash bag.I do have a question...." Read more

"...three suction/discharge cycles their bag is full and starts leaking muck back into the pond...." Read more

"...It is ongoing work through the year to maintain it, but the pond has a waterfall feature and it is really nice to have in the summer, spring, and..." Read more

56 customers mention33 positive23 negative

Customers are mixed about the quality of the pond cleaner. Some mention it has a nice quality build, is reasonably durable, and is awesome equipment. However, others say that it's still a back breaking job, the internal filter bag ripped the first 30 seconds of using it, and the extension wand pieces are very flimsy. The brush handle is floppy and makes it difficult to use. Overall, the quality is not very solid.

"I've been through two of these and am totally displeased. Construction seems solid, quality good and it initially appears to have strong suction...." Read more

"...The hose did not clog with leaves. However it does not remove string algae from a object...." Read more

"...Holds very well and removes easily. Got mine from McMaster-Carr, but Amazon might have it too...." Read more

"...As I was cleaning out the tank, I also found the drainage hose was full of pebbles and soon to be clogged up; so, I cleaned it out as well...." Read more

37 customers mention7 positive30 negative

Customers have negative opinions about the size of the pond pump. For example, they say the hose is too short to reach a reasonable distance, the outlet hose has a small diameter, and the discharge hose could be a little longer. Some mention that the drain tube is not long enough. Overall, customers are not happy with the size and weight of the product.

"...The main thing I wish was different is the drain tube - just not long enough really, I wish it was about 6-8 foot longer...." Read more

"...into the pond through a filter bag, but not the supplied one - it’s too small...." Read more

"...If I have any complaint at all, the discharge hose could be a little longer). After about 40-60 seconds the motor turns back on and back to sucking...." Read more

"...The small filter bag is next to worthless for a pond with a lot of debris as it is much too small and does not stay attached to the drain hose...." Read more

The Little Vacuum That Could
5 Stars
The Little Vacuum That Could
The local pond cleaning place charges $200.00 an hour to drain and clean my 500 gallon back yard pond. Last year it took them three hours and I’m sorry, but that’s just too much for my blood to empty a pond and scrub up some slime and debris. This vacuum did the thick. I first thought if I used the filter bag that I could just vacuum up all the silt and debris and filter it back into the water. I filled up multiple bags of gunk and debris, but to get rid of the silt I eventually had to empty the pool. We cover the pool with a net each winter but a lot of junk will still get in. Ok, the delay between filling and dumping was not ideal, but it gave me time in between cycles to change out the various attachments if I wanted. The vacuum had good suction and only once did I have to clear debris from a nozzle. It easily took up silt and debris until the pool was empty. After sponge scrubbing the algae and assorted slime, we hosed it down, emptied that hose water, and then refilled the pond. A few things: we bought de-chlorinator for the water to use before we put the fish back in. We caught the fish with a net and put them in a bucket filled with the original pond water. I used a portable solar powered oxygen pump to aerate the water for the two hours they were in the bucket (you can find an aerator cheap on Amazon). I also watched two YouTube videos. The first was on the vacuum itself produced by the manufacturers, and another was about general pond cleaning, which plants work best, and general pond care information. Our pond came with the house when we bought it two years ago. It is ongoing work through the year to maintain it, but the pond has a waterfall feature and it is really nice to have in the summer, spring, and fall so we try our best to keep it clean and well running. Five stars because this unit did exactly what it was advertised to do. Nothing more, nothing less. Spending the $200.00 for this was much better than paying $600.00 for a single pond-cleaning service.
