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 reaches 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.
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).
