Year-Round Pond Aeration for Optimal Water Quality

The Atlantic Typhoon Air Pump delivers reliable, energy-efficient aeration for ponds and water gardens throughout all seasons. Engineered with a durable diaphragm design and heat-dissipating aluminum housing, this professional-grade pump maintains maximum dissolved oxygen levels during summer while providing critical gas diffusion in winter to prevent toxic buildup and maintain ice-free zones.

Built for longevity, the Typhoon features replaceable diaphragms and an accessible air filter that extends motor life by reducing particulate contamination. The aluminum housing actively radiates heat to protect internal components, while the easy-clean filter makes preventive maintenance simple.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which model do I need?
The 30 LPM suits ponds up to 2,000 gallons with depths to 7 feet. The 60 LPM is for ponds 2,000-5,000 gallons or depths to 11 feet. Consult a pond professional for precise sizing.

Can I run multiple diffusers?
Yes. Use manifolds or splitters. The 30 LPM typically supports 1-2 diffusers, while the 60 LPM can power 2-4 diffusers depending on depth and type.

How often should I clean the air filter?
Inspect monthly and clean every 2-3 months under normal conditions. More frequent cleaning may be needed in dusty environments.

Where should I install the pump?
Install in a dry, well-ventilated location protected from weather and positioned above water level. A covered pump house, garage, or weatherproof enclosure is ideal.

Can I use this for winter aeration?
Yes. The Typhoon is designed for year-round operation, including winter aeration to maintain ice-free zones and allow gas escape.

When does the diaphragm need replacement?
Signs include reduced airflow or unusual noise. With proper maintenance, diaphragms typically last 2-3 years. Replacement parts are available separately.

Is the pump weatherproof?
No. The pump must be installed in a dry, protected location and is not designed for direct weather exposure without proper housing.
