Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Atlantic Typhoon Professional Aeration Kit. This supplemental
installation manual covers air pump placement, diffuser assembly and tubing connections.
For detailed air pump instructions, please refer to the Product Manual included with the
TA1800 / TA3600.
Caution
Avoid kinks and tight turns in the tubing run and take care to never fully close off the pump
outlet. Ensure that the pump can discharge sufficient air at all times, otherwise the pump
will overheat leading to diaphragm failure.
Diffuser Connections
Remove the rubber fill plug located on the bottom of the diffuser. Fill the diffuser cavity
with sand or small gravel. The additional weight will ensure the diffuser stays in place when
positioned at the bottom of the pond. Replace the rubber fill plug. Unroll the weighted
tubing and connect one end to open Tee on the diffuser. Submerse the diffuser in the
pond in the desired location and route the weighted tubing to the area the Air pump will
be installed.
Note: TADK1800 includes 20' of weighted tubing for one diffuser. TADK3600 includes 40'
of weighted tubing that can be cut to the proper length depending on the location of two
diffusers. These lengths do not have to be equal.
Air Pump Connections
In cooler weather, the air produced by the TA1800 and TA3600 is often warmer than the
ambient outside temperature. These conditions will create condensation inside the
weighted tubing. To prevent any water from flowing backwards into the air pump when
powered off, it is recommended to elevate the pump a minimum of 12" above the
surrounding grade. The tubing must immediately run at a downward slope as it exits the
compressor. Gravity will carry the moisture away from the air pump. In this installation it is
not necessary to install the check valve supplied with this kit. If the air pump is not elevated,
then the supplied check valve must be installed.
