Description
Kasco water circulators provide valuable benefits to you in every season of the year.
Circulators are a great way to eliminate stagnant water and have benefits all year long.
The Kasco Marine 3400CF Circulator with Horizontal Float Mount is a 3/4 HP, 120V water circulator designed to create strong directional water movement in ponds, lakes and waterfront areas. By keeping water moving, the 3400CF helps reduce stagnant conditions, improve mixing and move floating material away from problem areas.
The 3400CF produces approximately 36 lbs of thrust and is designed for continuous-duty circulation. The included Horizontal Float Mount allows the unit to be positioned below the water's surface and anchored from shore without requiring a dock or piling.
Horizontal Float Mount Included: This package includes the Kasco Horizontal Float Mount for secure floating installation and directional circulation.

Seasonal Benefits
Summer Circulation
During warmer months, the 3400CF can be used to mix and circulate stagnant water while creating directional flow through ponds, lakes and waterfront areas. Moving water can help move floating vegetation, algae and debris while reducing stagnant surface conditions.
Spring Circulation
Spring circulation can help re-establish water movement after winter and improve mixing in areas that have remained relatively stagnant. Directional flow can also help move accumulated floating material toward areas where it is easier to remove.
Fall Circulation
During fall, continued circulation can help move leaves, floating vegetation and other organic debris away from docks, shorelines and other targeted areas before material settles or accumulates.
Cold-Weather Circulation
Water circulation requirements vary considerably with water depth, temperature and local ice conditions. Follow Kasco's installation, operating and seasonal-storage instructions for the specific application and climate.

Horizontal Float Mount
The included Kasco Horizontal Float Mount suspends the 3400CF circulator below the water's surface and allows the assembly to be anchored from shore. This provides a flexible circulation option where a dock, piling or other fixed mounting structure is not available.
- Designed for floating installation of compatible Kasco circulators.
- Three tie-down points allow the float to be securely anchored.
- Multiple orientation settings allow the direction of water movement to be adjusted.
- Stainless steel hardware provides durability in aquatic environments.
- Includes a three-year warranty on the Horizontal Float.
Installation & Use
Position the Horizontal Float so the 3400CF can create directional flow through the desired area without contacting the pond or lake bottom, shoreline, docks or other underwater obstructions.
Secure the float using suitable mooring lines connected to the float's tie-down points. Adjust the unit orientation so water movement is directed through the target circulation area.
Avoid directing strong flow downward toward loose bottom sediment where circulation could disturb the substrate.
Electrical Safety: Always follow Kasco's electrical and installation requirements. Never enter the water while the circulator is connected to power or operating.
Frequently Asked Questions
What Is Included with the 3400CF?
This package includes the Kasco 3400CF 3/4 HP circulator, power cord and Horizontal Float Mount.
How Much Thrust Does the 3400CF Produce?
The Kasco 3400CF produces approximately 36 lbs of directional thrust.
What Voltage Does the 3400CF Use?
The 3400CF operates on 120V, single-phase power.
How Many Amps Does the 3400CF Draw?
The current Kasco 3/4 HP, 120V AquatiClear specification lists approximately 6.6 operating amps.
What Does a Water Circulator Do?
A water circulator creates directional flow that helps move and mix stagnant water through a pond, lake or waterfront area.
Can the 3400CF Help with Floating Vegetation and Debris?
Yes. Directional water movement can help push floating vegetation, algae and debris away from targeted areas. Results depend on wind, natural currents, shoreline configuration and the amount of material present.
Is the Horizontal Float Included?
Yes. The Horizontal Float Mount is included with this package.
Does the Horizontal Float Require a Dock?
No. The float is secured using mooring lines, making it suitable for installations where a dock or piling is not available.
Can the 3400CF Run Continuously?
Yes. Kasco circulators are designed for continuous-duty operation when properly installed and maintained.
What Is the Warranty?
The Kasco circulator includes a two-year manufacturer warranty, while the Horizontal Float includes a three-year warranty.
