Installation and commissioning of the aeration kit:

1. First, you need to choose a place for the air blower. We recommend placing the air blower as close to the water body as possible. This will avoid greater air flow losses. The air blower can operate outdoors, but it must be protected from direct precipitation and severe cold. Install the air blower in a sealed box (metal, plastic, or wooden). The box does not need to be insulated, but it is necessary to leave openings for air to enter inside. If there is a gazebo, sauna, or other structure near the water body, install the air blower there. In both cases, ensure a safe and reliable power supply for the air blower.
2. Hose. Use a 10 mm inner diameter PVC or rubber pressure hose purchased from us or your own (the hose must have a cord. Do not use very soft, easily kinked hose). We recommend using a hose no longer than 25 m. Attach one end of the hose to the air blower outlet nozzle and tighten it securely with the supplied clamp. Attach the other end of the hose to the check valve and also tighten it well with a clamp. The check valve is already connected to the diffuser in the set. If you use the aeration kit also in the warm season, you can remove the check valve from the system. In this case, connect the hose directly to the air diffuser. This will avoid additional pressure losses. The system is ready.
3. Immersion of the air diffuser. We recommend immersing the diffuser as deep as possible (just do not exceed the maximum allowable immersion depth). The higher the water column above the diffuser, the better the air bubbles and the oxygen in them dissolve in the water, causing mixing of various water layers. The ring-shaped air diffuser is lighter than water. To immerse it, tie a synthetic rope at the hose connection to the diffuser, and attach a weight to the other end of the rope (recommended weight 0.5 - 1 kg). Immerse the prepared diffuser with the weight into your chosen place in the water body. The weight will settle on the bottom of the water body, and the diffuser will rise as much as the length of the rope allows. The recommended minimum rope length between the weight and the diffuser is 10-15 cm. This way, the diffuser will not stir up bottom sediments or cloud your water body while operating. By adjusting the rope length between the weight and the air diffuser, you can regulate the immersion depth of the diffuser. Other immersion methods can be found, but this one is the simplest and works perfectly.
4. Connect the air blower to the power supply and the aeration system will start working. If there is no need to aerate 24/7, purchase a timer and set the desired operating mode. The aeration system is designed to work both continuously and intermittently. Enjoy using it.
