MAINTENANCE
1.) Before performing any maintenance or cleaning, always unplug the unit from the power
source.
2.) Compressor Diaphragm: Over time the compressor diaphragm can become worn. This
will greatly reduce the air output of the unit. We recommend to replace the diaphragm
once a year. Replacement Diaphragm Kit #120920. *PondAir™ 4 requires two kits.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If you have loss of airow, check the following:
• Has the air ow regulator been adjusted? Make sure that the air ow regulator hasn’t been
turned down.
• Is the air lter blocked? This can happen if the compressor is placed in a dusty area.
• Are there leaks or blockages in the airline? Check the airline for any signs of leaks or
clogging.
• Is the airline kinked? Make sure there are no kinked restricting air ow.
• Are the air stones clogged? Over time air stones can become clogged and may need to be
cleaned or replaced. (Item #160261)
• If all of the above has been checked and you still have reduced air ow, they more than
likely the diaphragm will have to be replaced.
