Tube Diffuser 4' Ring Quantity of 3 Heavy Duty Aeration Bubble 1/4" THICK 16"dia

Description

Listing is for a TOTAL OF 3 RINGS
NEW 4' ( 16" Diameter ) Heavy Duty 1/4" thick wall - RING Tube Diffuser tubing with ""T"" fitting 1/2"x1/2"x3/8" and 2 clamps.
Tube measure 4' long when straight.
This is a very Thick Walled Diffuser tube and should be used as - 1 diffuser for any size pump 1/3hp and below or tee'd off with any pump larger than a 1/2hp and above up to 4 or 5 pieces ( would recommend a valved manifold to accomplish the correct air pressure to each diffuser )
This tubing looks similar to soaker hose, but - This is not soaker hose - this tube is made specifically for  Aeration ( air pressure to create thousands of bubbles ) and not for water ( similar to a water pressure bubble drip line ).   Although it may look similar it is not the same thing.
We have lots of other diffuser choices but they are considerably more expensive.
This is one of the least expensive options to get diffused aeration in a body of water.
This is not self sinking or weighted tubing
- you will need to weigh it down for it to sink.  If attached to self sink tube or PVC it normally will stay below the water but can still float - in which case you will need to weight it down.
NOTE - picture is for representation only - actual item may vary in style or color
THESE come with Hose clamps to hold the tubing to the TEE Fitting.

Aero-Tube™ aeration tubing is the heart of Colorite’s aeration technology and is extremely simple to use. Among the benefits of Aero-Tube™ technology are a major reduction in energy costs, significantly higher oxygen transfer rates, higher dissolved oxygen (DO) levels, and an improved bottom line. By combining Aero-Tube™ aeration tubing with an efficient clean air blower, you can create a high efficiency, low cost aeration system
This tubing is made for this application and perfect when combined with our aeration supplies in our store - which we have for sale also - check out our store for aeration kits, compressor and aeration parts, pieces and any and all accessories you might need!
We are your one stop for any compressor or aeration supplies!!
We ship 5 days a week - we are a business - most items ship same day or day after excluding holidays and weekends.
Subsurface aerators are a great solution for many of our customers, especially since Deep Aire subsurface aerators do not require electricity  to be in a pond. We broke down all you need to know about one of our best pond aerators to help your pond stay clean and healthy.
Subsurface aerators, or diffused aeration systems, are designed as an alternative source of aeration, taking oxygen to a pond’s lowest depth along the bottom. Diffused air systems utilize an air compressor, located on the shore, that delivers oxygen through a hose to a special diffuser lying on the pond bottom.
A submersible aerator or large pond aerator like this one keeps the pond or lake clean and healthy without a large spray pattern. A Deep Air subsurface aeration system is perfect if you’re looking for something that requires no above surface water spray, surface obstructions, or installations that prohibit the use of electricity in the water.
PERFECT FOR
Ponds on golf courses
Ponds in public places
Any body of water that needs to regulate water aeration
Anyone wanting an aerator but not a big spray pattern
Body of water installations that prohibit the use of electricity in the water
Recreational bodies of water like lakes or swimming areas.
PERKS
No electricity required at the water’s edge. Your compressor needs electricity, but the compressor can be located wherever you desire.
No floating object on the water surface enabling you to go boating or fishing
Lower maintenance and service costs due to no moving parts in the water
Safer swimming. These systems do not require electricity to be in the pond.
Eliminates thermal stratification, making it ideal for deep-water applications
One compressor aerates one long, narrow pond, or two small ponds
Improves water quality and clarity
Low operating cost.
HOW IT WORKS
These Units are a subsurface aeration system with a piston type air compressor, air hose, and an air diffuser. Designed to improve oxygen levels and destratification in deep bodies of water.
The shore mounted rocking piston compressor produces compressed air through a air tube to a membrane diffuser located on the bottom of the pond. The compressed air is released into the water through the membrane diffuser releasing thousands of fine bubbles, which rise to the surface. As the bubbles of air rise, oxygen is transferred into the water. Simultaneously, as the bubbles rise, water is pulled upward, creating a flow of water from the bottom of the pond to the surface.
THINGS TO CONSIDER
When selecting a subsurface aeration system, consider the shape, surface area, and depth of the pond. The amount of surface area the diffused system will effectively cover is dependent on the depth of the shape of the pond. The area of coverage increases the deeper the diffuser is located in the water.
The shape of a pond also affects the number of diffusers needed. An irregular shaped pond, (i.e. kidney-shaped), rectangular, or one with an island or peninsula, will require multiple diffusers to adequately disperse the oxygen.
