The SDC line of Sicce Pumps is one of the most reliable and feature-rich pumps currently available. It can get a bit muddy looking at spec sheets, so we wanted to include videos to walkthrough the most important things to know about the SDC.

Here is a video highlighting the Key Physical Features of the SDC including Parts, Easy Disassembly, Full Plumbing Adapter Kit, 5 Year Warranty, Safety Alerts, and Multiple Use Applications.

This video provides a Complete Assembly and Installation Guide as well as a Full Controller Setup Guide.

This video showcases the SDC's Active Alert System that immediately alarms owners via mobile if there is a Temperature Spike, Dangerously Low Water Level, or Loss of Signal / Power Outtage.

Here is a Sicce Company Showcase that shares why Sicce has been trusted since 1974.

This is a funny little video we thought we'd throw in that really shows the roots of Sicce and where they come from.

Here is the Instruction Manual for the SDC Series. It's important to follow these as closely as possible as this is one of the main points that the 5 Year Warranty hinges on (along with Online Registration; see the "Warranty" tab for more info).

SDC Instruction Manual

Below is a bit more Technical Specs on the SDC Series.

SDC Technical Data

We’ll be straight up, if there was one pump brand we would recommend at Two Tides, it would be Sicce, and more specifically the SDC Series. 

We are big fans of simplicity of function when it comes to return pumps. In other words just having a pump that just works, and performs the desired outcome, consistently for years on end. The “more bells and whistles” or extreme customization mentality is better suited for something like Lighting that has a much larger immediate effect on the end look and health of your aquarium. However, some controllability is always welcomed to dial in just the right flow rate or flow pattern for our build.

Sicce has found the perfect medium between simplicity and customization with their SDC line. The pump controller is a minimalist’s dream, with very clear demonstration videos (under the “Videos” tab), while pump disassembly for cleaning takes just long enough to pop off a clip on the side of the pump. Tool-free pump maintenance. Nice one Sicce. They must have known that walking to the garage to grab a screwdriver decreases our chances of regularly servicing equipment multiple times over.

These little guys also pack a tremendous amount of head pressure into a very small comparative form factor. This means they could become the ideal solution for someone with a tank in the floor above the filtration system and the hobbyist who doesn’t have a lot of extra room to spare for a large external inline pump.

The simple safety features are also a highly appreciated addition for us personally. As we live in Florida, power outages are always the biggest roadblock with sleeping soundly at night and not worrying. Outages are practically a weekly or biweekly occurrence for us in the summertime, but the added layer of security from the alert gives us just enough time to take care of it ourselves, or call up a friend nearby to help if we are out of town. 

These pumps have already earned their spot in our systems, but more seems to be on the horizon for the future as well. Sicce has hinted at both a Neptune Apex Compatibility Update in the near future, with no changes in physical hardware (even SDC’s purchased previously will be compatible), and also a smaller sized SDC line for Nano Tanks.

All-in-all, massive kudos to Sicce for clearly listening to client feedback, and constantly developing alongside the new wave of controllable DC pumps. We’re very glad to see them continually innovating even after being well-respected in the industry for so long, and that they’re still offering their full 5 Year Warranty just like they always have to protect their craftsmenship and their clients. 

All Sicce pumps are protected by a Multiple Year Warranty ranging from 3-5 Years. These warranties are highly followed and valued by Sicce as it showcases the unmatched quality and value of their products (to our knowledge, the only other pumps that offer 5 Year Warranties start at around 2-3 times the price of the average Sicce pump).

The pumps protected under a 5 Year Warranty are as follows:

• Syncra Silent Return Pumps
• Syncra ADV Return Pumps
• Syncra SDC Return Pumps
• XStream Powerheads
• XStream-e Powerheads
• XStream SDC Powerheads
• PSK Skimmer Pumps

The pumps protected under a 3 Year Warranty are as follows:

• Voyager Powerheads
• Voyager Nano Powerheads
• Wave Surfer Pump Controller

The pump protected under a 2 Year Warranty is as follows:

• Ultra Zero Multipurpose Utility Pump

This warranty assumes that the owner has engaged in proper assembly, installation, use, and maintenance outlined in the Instruction Manual. Sicce is the ultimate decision-maker for whether their products have been used properly or improperly.

Warranty Registration

To make the potential warranty claiming process as simple as possible, we recommend that every Sicce product purchased be immediately registered on Sicce's website with your order information. This will ensure that Sicce has your info on file and can help you as quickly as possible.

Let them know what the story is, and they will walk you through the process of receiving a repaired or replaced pump. Usually this includes shipping to Sicce US's location in Coconut Creek FL, have them inspect, and decide if a repair or replacement suits the issue best (in our experience, it's usually a replacement).

If you need help claiming warranty, feel free to let us know and we can reach out to a few of our friends over at Sicce to assist.

Have any further questions that aren't answered here? We'd love to hear from you, and learn how we can help you be as successful as possible in this wonderful hobby.
