Maintenance - Maxspect Aeraqua Duo Owner's Manual

Maintenance of the Appliance
The Maxspect™ Aeraqua Duo Protein Skimmer can be completely disassembled for
EN
maintenance, cleaning and servicing. This is done in the order of the steps described below.
Due to the harsh conditions of a saltwater aquarium and resulting buildup of algae and other
organic matter, it is advisable to clean the pump to ensure the longevity of appliance.
Maxspect recommends doing a cleaning every 6 months or as necessary. If there is calcium
buildup, it may be necessary to soak these parts in a mild acid solution such as vinegar. DO
NOT use strong acids, because these may damage the components. After cleaning,
reassemble the appliance.
