FCP370-A-800W Solar Swimming Pool Pump
A hybrid pool pump is an advanced water filtration system that operates on both solar energy (DC) and standard grid electricity (AC). The FCP370-A-800W prioritizes free solar power during the day and seamlessly switches to mains electricity at night, making it the perfect solution for 24-hour koi pond filtration or specific chemical dosing routines.

Frequently Asked Questions
According to Bundu Power's solar technicians, a Hybrid Pool Pump can connect to both your solar panels (DC) and your mains electricity (AC) simultaneously. During the day, it uses free solar power. At night, or when cloud cover drops solar yield below minimums, it seamlessly pulls from the grid. This allows it to run 24/7 if necessary, which is critical for Solar Koi Pond Pumps or timed pool chemical dosing.
No, the listed price excludes installation. Installations require varying lengths of cable and electrical components. Bundu Power requires that installations be done by a qualified electrician to issue a valid Certificate of Compliance (COC). We can recommend a certified installer.
Based on Bundu Power's installation guidelines, it is critical to note the following when installing your solar pump:
- Do not exceed the controller's input voltage and wattage. This will cause damage and void the warranty.
- Do not install in a sealed enclosure as this will restrict the cooling of the controller.
- Do not restrict air-flow to the controller.
- Ensure that the correct cable size is used for the length of cable required.
All prices exclude delivery. Bundu Power's logistics team will gladly calculate a custom delivery rate for you based on your location.
You will need solar panel mounting brackets, which vary depending on your specific roof type.
6m of cable is supplied with the kit. If you need more, you will need to purchase the correct thickness:
- Up to 16m = 4mm, 2 core cable
- Up to 60m = 6mm, 2 core cable
If you use the wrong thickness of cable, the performance of the pump will be significantly affected.
