Description
No Penetration. No Excavation. Just Reliable Performance.
The Rhino Retro Bottom Drain is the ideal solution for ponds that were built without a bottom drain—or for situations where penetrating the liner or concrete just isn’t an option. Whether you’re working with a pre-formed pond, an existing liner, or concrete flooring, the Rhino Retro provides professional-level bottom drainage without invasive installation.
Designed by Aquadyne with the same durability and craftsmanship found across the RHINO product line, this over-the-liner drain is made from heavy-duty PVC and built to last. Available in both 2″ and 3″ models.
Simple Installation, Lasting Results
Just fill the ballast chamber with sand, small stones, or another inert heavy material to weigh it down, and then connect a suction hose or rigid plumbing to the side port. Place it in the deepest part of the pond, and your filtration system is instantly more effective at removing suspended solids and debris.
In colder months, the drain can be easily relocated to shallower areas to preserve warmer water at depth—helping your fish overwinter in peace.
Why Install a Retrofit Bottom Drain?
Without a bottom drain, ponds often accumulate leaves, sludge, and organic waste, requiring full clean-outs multiple times a year. This not only stresses your fish and disrupts your pond’s ecosystem—but it adds unnecessary maintenance to your routine.
A good bottom drain is the first and most important step in maintaining a clean, healthy, and low-maintenance pond.
Key Features:
-
Perfect for existing ponds – No need to penetrate liners or concrete.
-
Stable and weighted design – Ballast chamber holds the drain securely in place.
-
Heavy-duty PVC construction – Won’t crack, warp, or damage your liner.
-
No injection molded parts – Built for long-term durability, not cost savings.
-
Easy to relocate – Great for seasonal adjustments or cleaning.
Protect your pond, your fish, and your time.
Choose the Rhino Retro Drain and enjoy professional-grade performance—without tearing up your pond.
