EasyPro Alumina Airstones
Professional-Grade Alumina Air Stones for Superior Pond Aeration
EasyPro Alumina Airstones are three times stronger than traditional white silica air stones, delivering exceptional durability and performance for pond and water garden aeration systems. These professional-grade diffusers produce finer bubbles with no increase in pressure, maximizing oxygen transfer efficiency.
Available Sizes
- 2" Disc - Compact diffuser ideal for small ponds and aquariums
- 3" Disc - Medium-sized diffuser perfect for moderate aeration needs
- 4" Disc - Large diffuser for robust aeration in bigger ponds
- 6" Disc - Extra-large diffuser designed for maximum coverage in large ponds
Key Features
- Three Times Stronger: Alumina construction is significantly more durable than white silica air stones
- Finer Bubbles: Produces smaller bubbles for increased aeration efficiency with no increase in pressure
- Reinforced Inlet Fittings: Fittings are set into the body of the diffuser, making them much less likely to break or twist loose
- Self-Weighting: Higher density means the air stones stay in place without additional weights
- Cleanable: Can be cleaned with muriatic acid or chlorine to restore performance

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which size air stone do I need?
A: Choose based on your pond size and aeration requirements. The 2" disc is ideal for small ponds and aquariums, 3" for medium ponds, 4" for larger ponds, and 6" for maximum coverage in large or commercial installations.
Q: How are these different from white silica air stones?
A: Alumina air stones are three times stronger, produce finer bubbles, have reinforced inlet fittings that won't break or twist loose, are self-weighting, cleanable, and more resistant to ozone degradation.
Q: Do I need an air compressor?
A: Yes! Air stones must be paired with an air compressor or air pump to function. The compressor forces air through the porous material to create the bubbles that aerate your pond.
Q: How do I clean these air stones?
A: Clean with muriatic acid or chlorine to remove mineral buildup and restore bubble production. Follow safety precautions when using cleaning chemicals, rinse thoroughly, and allow to dry before reinstalling.
Q: Will these sink on their own?
A: Yes! The higher density alumina material is self-weighting, so the air stones will sink and stay in place without requiring additional weights.
