Big Leaf Traps

High-Capacity Filtration for External Pumps

Smart Protection for External Pumps

If you are tired of constantly emptying your pump’s basket and clogged filters, Big Leaf Traps is the saviour you need. Built for external pumps, these pond debris filters capture leaves, twigs, and other large debris before they reach your pump. This will reduce the need for maintenance, prevent blockages and maintain a steady water flow. It works perfectly for all water systems, including koi ponds, fountains, and waterfall systems.

The Big Leaf Trap combines durability with user-friendly design. Its heavy-duty construction stands up to years of demanding use, while the high-capacity basket holds more debris so you don’t have to clean as often. A clear lid allows for quick inspection, and the easy-to-remove basket makes it one of the best pond leaf traps. Designed with external pumps in mind, these pond maintenance supplies are an ideal safeguard for your water system.
