Solar panel on my fence. Otherwise the pump totally submerge and needs to be

I have found it still moves the water when submerged but gives you the fountain when exposed

It will only bubble slightly if submerged in water. Top needs to be clear.I love this pump & bought two

The pump can, yes. The solar panel should be outside of the water and facing the sun for best performance. Be aware of how gunky your water is, the pump intake can become blogged with moss and slime and prevent it from working...

It is supposed to be fully submerged. I bought it for an Aquafarm and it fits perfectly.

The top inch or so should be kept out of the water. If the upper part gets wet, it won't hurt it, but it should not stay completely underwater

I have never had a situation where it was completely submerged. I would suggest you contact irobot the manufacturer.

to my knowledge it says you can submerge the entire heater, and make sure to read the intructions carefully as well.

It is not fully submersible. The water level can't be over the gray ring at the top.

No, I would not consider submerging this item in water! The case is not a water tight sealed enclosure.

It's plastic, so I'm certain you could submerge it, but I wouldn't have any idea if it would be effective, although I would have to imagine it would be.

Yes it is fully submersible. I haven't had mine for too long bit it works great. I have it in a 60 gallon tank and it keeps it at exactly the temp I need

Yes and no. You can pour a glass of water and shake it off. Doesnt soak through. You cannot submerge it for an hour and expect the same.

No there is no problem with water draining out completely. This is a large one bowl design that replaces many two small bowl designs, so the existing piping more than likely will be on one side.

Yes it is. You have to give the top a good tug to get it off, so dump as much water out of it as you can or you will get wet!

I found out that if you unscrew the cap just a little, enough to let the air in or to seep out, but not totally unscrew it then blow into the top (with the cap still on), it will blow up better & not leak air. You just tighten it once you have it where you want it. If you totally take off the top, it will be harder to get the top back on before it leaks out too much air.

After looking up the IP rating system for this item, I would not recommend submerging it. It is only rated to a 5 and for submersion it would need to be an 8.

In my opinion it should go on the bottom. If it was on top, water may get into it. Also being on the bottom will allow for any condensation to drain out.

no.. if you put a container on the top the water will just flow out ... to big an opening

water yes... but do not submerge, operate in the rain or under running tap. It's designed to work on all terrains.... In water it will take on a little water to balance and settle more to move around better in the water. when it's out of the water you have to drain properly and let it dry for a while. Do not use it near the beach or salt water as it may rust screws and other metal pieces. I love love this toy.... I'm going to be buying more of this. It's very versatile and can take some knocking around.
