What is the best way to place the unit on the bottom of the pond?
For example my pond is about 16ft deep, what is the best way to place each unit on the bottom properly? Thank you.

The base of the diffuser is designed to be filled with pea rock so it will sink to the bottom of the pond. A boat that is not easily tipped is recommenced to place the diffusers in the pond. You would then lower the diffusers to the bottom with a rope (not included).

Can this unit be powered but a solar system and how many panels will it take if it can use solar?
1 answer-
ProductExpert7· 10 years ago
This Diffused Air System can be powered by a solar powered system. Due to all of the variables in a solar system, we are not able to recommend the amount of solar panels you will need to power the air system.
