Eco-Purge, Biofilm Removal Product
If you are noticing that your diffusers are releasing fewer and fewer bubbles then it is likely a biofilm is forming a coating that is restricting airflow by blocking the perforations. Benefits Eco-Purge is a natural organic product specially designed to clean Bubble Tubing® and other items placed in water that are clogged by biofilm or other deposits. Active in fresh and salt water. Safe for aquatic fauna and flora. Technical Specifications Eco-Purge is designed to clean the biofilm that forms in the tubing of air lines and diffusers in aeration systems. Biofilm grows slowly, it is an organic or mineral biofilm that limits the effectiveness of the system. It forms naturally and develops more or less quickly depending on various factors such as temperature, water quality, hardness, pH, air pressure, to name a few.To counter this problem, we offer a product that eliminates these deposits while respecting the natural environment: Eco-Purge. Specifically formulated for this application, it penetrates and breaks down biofilm. The cleaning and descaling power of the product decreases with the temperature. From 15°C and above, we can expect a powerful and rapid cleansing. Below this temperature, a longer contact time or a higher concentration of the product must be expected. We guarantee that the product has been manufactured under strict quality control standards that ensure optimal product quality. SDS (PDF) Dosage, Application and Storage DOSAGE: 250 ml to 500 ml per 30 m of Bubble Tubing® to clean. The dosage may vary depending on the level of dirt accumulated on the products to be cleaned and the temperature of the water in which the product is applied APPLICATION: 1. Mix well before using. 2. Turn off the aeration system. 3. In each air line, pour a minimum of 250 ml to 500 ml per 30 m of Bubble Tubing® to clean. 4. Let stand for 10 to 15 minutes. 5.

The beneficial and natural bacteria will help reduce the build-up of organic matter in the septic tank and are safe to use. Technical Specifications The ¼HP air pump is very quiet, consumes little energy (3 amps) and makes a maximum of 30 PSI while providing an air volume of 1.24 CFM. The compressor must be placed in a location that is sheltered from the weather and where there is good air circulation because no cabinet is sold with this system. It is important to protect the compressor from bad weather. The diffuser and the air supply hoses are heavy enough to sink to the bottom of the water without the need for ballast. The air pushed from the compressor will travel through the Torpedo feeder line to the diffuser. The diffuser will let the air escape in fine micro-bubbles of oxygen that will move up the water column. The oxygen and circulation created will help maintain the health of your pond.

Piccolo Air Diffuser
Our expertise in aeration comes from our many years of experience in the field of air diffusion technologies. This small diffuser requires little pressure to operate. We are the only retailer in Canada to offer the Piccolo diffuser. Benefits The piccolo is a small diffuser requiring little pressure to operate. It can be placed at different depths depending on the need, ideal for small ponds with little depth or with various depths. Here are the advantages seen when using bottom aeration: Circulation of the entire water column in relation to the depth of the diffuser and the volume of air injected; Elimination of thermal stratification (generally prohibited in the case of natural trout lakes); Increase in dissolved oxygen levels, which stimulates the natural aerobic digestion process, thus reducing the thickness of organic silt and the accumulation of sediment; Prevents fish kills during winter by increasing the oxygen available in their habitat; Reduces mosquito populations; Eliminates foul odors from unwanted gases; Reduces organic bottom sediments by avoiding sediment anoxia; Sequestration of phosphorus in sediments; Preservation of a healthy aquatic ecosystem. Technical Specifications This small diffuser is used in our S.A.S., Mini-Air and CanadianAir aeration systems. It is very suitable for ponds that are rather round or tank-shaped. Diffuser Type: Ballasted diffuser base using a porous pipe as the diffusion medium. Optimal CFM: 0.9 Bubble size: Fine Minimum pressure: No restrictions 1 year warranty Piccolo Tech Sheet (PDF) Piccolo Assembly Guide (PDF)

Our cabinets are safe, well ventilated, secure, and provide noise reduction. Contact us if you have any doubts about which model to choose! Technical Specifications Rocking Piston Compressors Twenty years ago, it was rare to see anyone using the rocking piston compressor (also called oscillating piston compressor) for aeration of ponds and lakes. Gradually they became the heart and soul of aquatic aeration systems. Rocking piston compressors operate without oil, are economical, powerful and efficient. They are divided into 2 groups: single piston and double piston compressors. The single piston is ¼HP or ⅓HP, while the double piston is ½ HP or ¾ HP. The air pressure is 25 to 50 psi or 1.72 bar to 3.45 bar. As a general rule of thumb, the more pressure the compressor develops, the less air flow is available. The air flow rate is between 2 and 8 CFM, or 0.06m³-0.23m³ per minute. The common brands are Thomas and Gast, but they can now be found on the market under different names such as: Sweetwater, Brockwood, Matala, Stratus and Tech-Aire reciprocating compressors. They all share the same principle of operation and work perfectly with many types of diffusers.These compressors are sold in Kasco Marine's Robust-Aire systems and are also used in CanadianAir Aeration systems.Piston Compressor Data Sheet (PDF) Teich-Aire owner's manual (PDF) Warranty : 3 years Warranty is void if: The compressor is not maintained properly according to the maintenance recommendations supplied in this manual. The system is damaged by unauthorized tampering. Here is the procedure to claim a repair under warranty: Click Here Installations We know our way around pumps, boosters and compressors, and we work with manufacturers to offer the best in the industry. Currently, most small systems are often diaphragm or rocking piston compressors, while medium to large systems use rotary or screw compressor models. Contact us to discuss your aeration system so that we can help you find the most suitable compressor. Make sure your compressor is well protected under a structure or one of our cabinets. We strongly recommend to use a compressor cabinet from us versus rigging up a home made alternative. Our cabinets are safe, well ventilated, secure, and provide noise reduction.

Electromagnetic Diaphragm Compressors (Secoh)
Secoh JDK compressors are perfect for small ponds (6 ft deep max), small basins and septic tanks. Benefits Electromagnetic diaphragm compressors are often referred to as linear air pumps. Most people would recognize them as aquarium air pumps; they look like a toaster. They use an electromagnetic system that oscillates the diaphragm and creates a steady flow of air. They are simple but very durable and this is the quietest way to create air pressure. But silence brings limitations and they provide no more than 4-5 PSI pressure for larger models and most operate at a maximum of 2-3 PSI. With the right type of air diffuser, they are ideal for shallow water gardens. We have sold many diaphragm pumps over the years and the most common comment that comes up is that people are drawn to their quiet operation. However, they can sometimes be wrong about the true depth of their water basins. Picking the wrong compressor can lead to its diaphragms wearing out faster and causing it to break constantly. Trust our salespeople to provide you with the right system. CanadianPond.ca offers you a wide choice of compressors for aeration. It is possible to make energy efficient choices while avoiding compromises. Technical Specifications Electromagnetic (linear) diaphragm compressors use an electromagnetic system that oscillates the diaphragm and creates a steady flow of air. They are simple but very durable and this is the quietest way to create air pressure. These compressors are sold as a complete aeration kit: see our SAS aeration system.
