Description
Revolutionize Your Water Bodies with Can-Air® Diffused Aeration System for Ponds, Lakes and Dugouts in Canada
The Can-Air® SS diffuser offers the same reliable aeration system as the Can-Air® diffuser, but with a slightly smaller stainless steel base, which is self-weighted for easy installation
- Durable Stainless Steel Base
- No gravel needed in the base to sink it - just lower it into the water
- Easy to assemble and install
- 100% designed and assembled in Canada
- No electricity in the water. This can be especially important where swimming is allowed.
- No floating equipment at the surface. Boating is not hindered, and the lake's natural beauty can be enjoyed.
- Can-Air® Aeration will improve water quality by slowly moving water over the pond's bottom substrate. Phosphates are reduced by up to 95% in many cases.
- These systems can effectively de-stratify and aerate deep lakes with much lower equipment costs and energy consumption. Can-Air® systems are the most efficient and cost-effective on the market.
- 38% more diffuser area than most systems out there.
- Low maintenance. Most maintenance and inspection may be conducted onshore. Rocking piston compressors require less internal maintenance than other compressors, and parts are always available.
Our compressors and the associated cooling fans are available in 120v or 240v.

Installation
Can-Air® SS Aeration System Manual
Can-Air® SS Diffuser Installation
If there is no aeration currently in your fish pond, the diffuser should be lowered roughly half the depth, and then slowly lowered to the bottom over the next few weeks at a rate of 2 feet every other week until it is at the pond bottom.
If the diffuser is lowered to the bottom right away, you risk stirring up toxic gases that could kill your fish. Lowering it slowly over time will eliminate this risk.
This system comes standard with our mounting shelf; cabinets can be ordered separately. Two of these systems can be mounted in back-to-back cabinets (preferred). Can-Air® systems with one, two, three, or four diffusers can be housed in one post-mounted cabinet. Two of these systems can be mounted in back-to-back cabinets (preferred).
**NOTE** For warranty to be valid, all systems sold with no cabinet must be:
- Out of the elements (snow, wind, dust)
- Be kept off the ground (on a shelf or post)
- Have a cooling fan blowing hot air AWAY from the compressor (any little 12v barn fan will work)
