WINTER OPERATION

DANGER

Operating in freezing conditions on an ice-covered water garden will cause open water areas, even in freezing conditions. Also, the ice thickness around these open areas will be much thinner than the ice over the remainder of the pond. Injury or fatality may result from falling through the ice. Airmax strongly recommends that this danger of thin ice around the diffuser site be clearly posted at frequent intervals. Owner assumes all responsibility for operating KoiAir Mini Aeration Kit during winter months. If you choose to turn off your system for the winter, do the following:

• Unplug the system and remove the diffuser(s), airline(s) and compressor.
•  Store in a dry area protected from the elements such as a garage or basement (climate control recommended).

INSTALLING YOUR KoiAir Mini AERATION SYSTEM

1. D ecide on a location for the KoiAir Mini compressor. It’s important to elevate the compressor a few inches above ground level, making sure the compressor is above the pond’s water surface. If power is not available at the pond’s edge, the compressor may be located at the power source and extra airline can be added (up to 100 ft) to reach your desired diffuser location.
   NOTE: It is recommended that the compressor be covered and not exposed directly to the elements. This can be accomplished by purchasing a small TrueRock™ cover (Item #510330). If you decide to use your own cover, make sure it will keep water from coming in direct contact with the compressor and that there is plenty of ventilation.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR KoiAir Mini AERATION SYSTEM

| KoiAir Mini

(for ponds up to 4,000 gallons)

---|---
A **High Efficiency Compressor| KA20: 17 Watts @ 115 Volts
B ****EasySet ™ ****Weighted Airline| Includes 15’ of weighted airline.
C ****KoiAir Weighted Diffuser| **

(1) PTFE Diffuser (4’ Max Depth)

D **Hose Clamps**| (2) Squeeze Clamps, (1) Rubber Coupler

Attach the 2.25” rubber coupler to one end of the weighted airline, then connect the rubber coupler to he outlet on the compressor. Hold in place with the 2 squeeze clamps provided. Find a location in your water garden to place the diffuser. Do not exceed the max depth rating of 4 feet when placing your diffuser. Depths in excess of this rating will greatlyreduce airflow to the diffuser and cause excess strain on the compressor reducing its life expectancy. Before cutting the airline to desired length, be sure to compensate for the depth of the pond. After cutting the airline, connect the end of the airline to the diffuser (no clamp is necessary). Place diffuser in pond at desired location and turn air system on. In case of extreme temperatures (hot or cold), it is recommended to relocate diffuser from the deepest point of your pond.

MAINTENANCE SAFETY

• Always use parts that are supplied or approved by Airmax. Use of other parts may result in poor performance and could create a hazardous situation.
• Always unplug the system from the outlet and refer servicing to a qualified electrician under the following conditions:\
  1. When the power cord is damaged or frayed.
  2. If the compressor is producing unusual noises or odors.
