STEP THREE: Excavate Trench and Place Airline(s)
STEP FOUR: Connect Airline(s) to the Compressor Manifold
STEP FIVE: Partially Backfill Airline Trench
1. Using your shovel, dig a trench from the cabinet to the pond's edge. This trench
should be a minimum depth of 8" to protect the airline. We recommend having utility
lines marked before you begin digging.
2. Place airline into the trench from the aeration cabinet to the pond's edge.
Option A:
Use EasySet™ weighted airline. There must be a separate run of airline for each
diffuser that will be installed. Leave remaining airline coiled at the pond's edge.
Option B:
Use Direct Burial airline. There must be a separate run of airline for each diffuser that
will be installed. Join multiple sections of direct burial airline using 5/8" connector kits.
First, slide two hose clamps onto one section of airline. Next insert the 5/8" insert
adaptor half way into one section of airline and then insert into next the section of
airline. Using a flathead screw driver, secure one of the hose clamps onto each half of
the insert adaptor (see image on the left).
Option B with Remote Manifold:
Use 1" Direct Burial Airline or PVC Pipe. Only 1 run of airline is required from the
cabinet location to the pond's edge. See Remote Manifold Kit Manual or watch the
installation video at airmaxeco.com/RemoteManifold for more information.
Option A & B:
Insert a male adaptor into the weighted airline and secure with a hose clamp. Then
attach a male Cam-lock end. Repeat for each diffuser line. (see image on the left)
Next, place the junction box into the hole over
top of the airline ends. Then join each line to the
female locking end of the Cam-lock from under
the cabinet*. Place the cabinet over the junction
box. Open the aeration cabinet by unscrewing
the 4 lobed thumb bolts. Gently lift the cabinet
top and lay on its side next to the base. Use your
level to make sure the cabinet is sitting secure
and level.
Option B with Remote Manifold:
Refer to the Remote Manifold Kit Manual or watch the installation video at
airmaxeco.com/RemoteManifold for more information.
Note: You may choose to fill in with small stone or gravel under the cabinet and in
the junction box. This allows for a firm base for the cabinet and for drainage.
Backfill the airline trench in a few areas to temporarily keep the airline in place until
installation is complete.
