STEP 7
SET DIFFUSER IN POND
• Set the diffuser in the pond.

Winter Application

• The aeration kit can be used during winter months where bubbles and water movement
created at the surface help to maintain a small opening in the ice for oxygenation. DO NOT
place the diffuser on the bottom of the pond during winter, as it may disrupt the natural
thermocline found in the deeper portions of the pond where the fish are overwintering.
Place the diffuser about 1 to 1.5 feet below the surface of the water.

General Maintenance

• The inlet filter should be checked annually or if the compressor makes any abnormal noises.
If operating the unit in dusty conditions, you will need to check it more frequently. The filter is
easily inspected by gently pulling off the filter cover. The sponge filter can be rinsed in clean
water and thoroughly dried before replacing.
• The compressor components can be completely replaced, as needed, to maximize
functionality. Use the Pro Air 20 Compressor Renew Kit (#61015) to refresh the compressor.
• Winter care: the Pro Air 20 can be operated through freezing winters. If not running the
compressor through the winter, it is recommended to cover the compressor or store it in a
frost-free location.

Troubleshooting

• Reduced or no air flow
– Make sure the check valve is oriented in the proper direction
– Make sure the braided tubing and membrane diffuser are not restricted
‚ Should a kinked tube or dirty membrane significantly block air flow, shut down the compressor immediately to prevent over-
heating
– Check the air inlet sponge filter for clogging and clean or replace if necessary
• The internal diaphragm may wear over time and need to be replaced. Renew the compressor using the Pro Air 20 Compressor
Renew Kit (Item #61015).
– Compressor not working
‚ The GFCI may have tripped
‚ The compressor is not receiving the correct voltage
