Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which kit size do I need for my pond?
A: The Pro Koi 1 (single diffuser) works well for ponds up to 1,000 gallons or smaller areas. The Pro Koi 2 (dual diffuser) is ideal for ponds up to 2,000 gallons or larger ponds where you want coverage in multiple areas. If you have a very large pond (over 2,000 gallons), you may need multiple kits or a larger commercial system. As a general rule, more aeration is better than less—your fish will thank you!
Q: Do I need to run the aerator all year, even in winter?
A: Yes! Year-round operation is highly recommended. In summer, aeration is critical because warm water holds less oxygen, and fish need more oxygen when it's hot. In winter, continuous aeration helps prevent your pond from completely freezing over, which allows toxic gases to escape and oxygen to enter. The small hole in the ice created by the bubbles can be a lifesaver for your fish. These compressors use very little electricity (23-35 watts), so the cost is minimal compared to the benefits.
Q: How difficult is installation?
A: Installation is very simple! Just connect the weighted tubing to the compressor with the included stainless steel clamps, place the weighted diffuser(s) on the bottom of your pond where you want bubbles, and plug in the compressor. The weighted components sink and stay in place without any sand bags or anchors. The entire setup typically takes 15-30 minutes. Place the compressor in a protected location (like under a deck or in a ventilated box) to keep it dry and out of the weather.
