Cascade 5000

CasCade 5000 – Brand Review & Overview

CasCade 5000 is a high-output floating pond fountain and aerator package designed as a “large pond” workhorse for residential, farm, and light commercial water features. Sold as a complete system with pump, float, nozzle, and power cord, it is aimed at owners who want a dramatic display pattern while also pushing thousands of gallons of water per hour for better circulation and oxygenation.

At the heart of the CasCade 5000 is a 1 HP, 115‑volt pump that plugs into a standard household outlet and delivers a flow rate in the neighborhood of 5,600 gallons per hour, paired with an “unsinkable” solid polystyrene float and a two‑tier decorative nozzle. In typical setups it throws a spray up to roughly 16 feet high and 20–25 feet wide, making it suitable for ponds up to about 1–2 acres in surface area, and many packages offer options like longer power cords, 230‑volt versions, timers, and multi‑light LED kits for nighttime display.

The CasCade 5000 line targets pond owners who want a balance of price, performance, and ease of installation: the unit ships largely pre‑assembled, can be deployed in minutes with simple mooring or an anchor, and is backed by a limited warranty through pond‑specialist dealers. If you are looking for a single fountain system that both enhances the look of a larger pond and provides meaningful surface aeration without stepping into very high‑priced commercial gear, the CasCade 5000 is positioned as a value‑oriented, widely adopted choice.
