For complete aeration systems, deluxe vertical tank mount, double aeration kit, and other aeration supplies, please see our main Aermax systems page.

Note: These pumps are not designed to inject fluids. Ozone can be used under certain conditions, but wet ozone will erode the aluminum pump body. Use with ozone will void the warranty.

This page features parts for high capacity, full-vent aeration systems. Parts on this page are compatible with the Aermax systems we sell, and will interchange with parts from many water aeration systems.

We don't list venturi valves (“micronizers”), passive air vents, small aeration tanks or other parts used with low-cost aeration systems, but we can usually provide them if you call.

General Pump Information

• Weight: Around 8 lbs.

• Water resistant (can be operated in a somewhat moist room atmosphere, but should not be used outdoors).

• Withstand temperatures of 40 to 100 degrees Fahrenheit if there is not excessive moisture.

• Noise Level: Approximately 50 decibels.

• Life Expectancy: 20,000 to 25,000 hours before bearings need replacement.

• Materials: Body and most parts are aluminum. Valves are stainless steel, and the compression cup is Teflon. Pumps have 16-gauge wire.

• Compression Technology Used: Rocking Piston with Induction (not commutator) motor.

• Injection Output: 0.38 cfm @ 0 psi. 0.15 cfm @ 50 psi.

• Maximum Pressure Output: 100 psi, but recommended maximum operating pressure is 70 psi.

• Normal Air Pump Cycle: 5 to 10 psi of well pump setting. For example, if the well pump is set at 30-50 psi, the air pump might run at 30-35 psi.

• Recommended Maintenance: Replace Teflon compression cup every 12,000 hours. Replace bearings every 20,000 to 25,000 hours. The motor is self-lubricating. Do not oil.

Air Pumps

In general, the standard air pump handles treatment systems with service flow rates up to 15 gpm. All pumps include an air intake filter.
