4. Налаштування

1. Розміщення насоса: Place the aerator pump in a dry, elevated location near your pond, protected from rain and direct sunlight. Ensure it is above the pond's water level to prevent backflow.
2. Connect Airline Tubes: Connect one end of each 30ft vinyl airline tube to the air outlets on the pump.
3. Install Check Valves: Install the check valves inline on each airline tube, between the pump and the air stones. Ensure the check valve is oriented correctly to allow air flow away from the pump and prevent water from flowing back into the pump if power is lost.
4. Attach Air Stones: Attach an air stone to the other end of each airline tube.
5. Position Air Stones: Carefully place the air stones into your pond. For general aeration, position them at a suitable depth to ensure even oxygen distribution. For winter ice prevention, refer to the 'Operation' section.
6. Підключення живлення: Once all connections are secure and the pump is safely positioned, plug the power cord into a GFCI-protected electrical outlet.

Подвійна функціональність

This aerator serves two primary functions:

1. Оксигенація: The pump effectively adds oxygen to your pond, which is crucial for the health of fish and plants. Increased oxygen levels also promote beneficial biological processes that help maintain water quality. This unit is ideal for ponds up to 1,000 gallons.

2. Disrupt Ice Formation: During colder months, continuous operation of the pump keeps the surface water moving, helping to prevent the formation of solid ice. This creates a vital breathing hole for your fish, ensuring they have access to oxygen even in freezing conditions.

   IMPORTANT: During winter, move the air stones to HALF your maximum pond depth to avoid ice formation and ensure proper aeration without overcooling the deeper water where fish may hibernate.

6. Технічне обслуговування

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and efficient operation of your AquaMiracle Pond Aerator.

• Заміна повітряного фільтра: The pump is equipped with an air filter to ensure clean air intake. Check the air filter pads periodically (e.g., monthly) and replace them when they appear dirty or clogged. Two replacement air filter pads are included in the kit.
• Air Stone Cleaning: Over time, air stones may become clogged with algae or mineral deposits, reducing airflow. Remove and clean the air stones as needed by scrubbing them with a brush or soaking them in a mild acid solution (e.g., vinegar) to remove buildup. Rinse thoroughly before reinstallation.
• Airline Inspection: Periodically inspect the airline tubes for kinks, cracks, or blockages. Ensure they are free from debris that could restrict airflow.
• Очищення корпусу насоса: Wipe down the exterior of the pump housing with a damp тканиною, щоб видалити пил і бруд. Не використовуйте агресивні хімікати або абразивні засоби для чищення.
