Winter Application

• The aeration compressor 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 sponge 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 popping off the filter cover. The sponge filter can be rinsed
in clean water and thoroughly dried before replacing.
• The sponge filter and diaphragms can be replaced, as needed, to ensure maximum
functionality. Use the Pro Air 20 Compressor Renew Kit (#61015) to refresh the compressor
filter or diaphragms.
• 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 by verifying that air is able to flow freely through the tubing
toward the diffuser
– Make sure braided tubing is not kinked or restricted
 Should a kinked tube or dirty membrane significantly block air flow, shut down the compressor immediately to prevent
overheating
– Check the air inlet sponge filter for clogging and clean or replace if necessary
– Compressor not working
 The GFCI may have tripped
 The compressor is not receiving the correct voltage
