• Proper ventilation is critical for heat dissipation and operation. Never cover the air pump
unless adequate airflow to the pump is provided.
• Tubing must always be run on a downward slope away from the air pump to avoid
condensation damage.
Air Pump Connections
Typhoon Air pumps will accept multiple sizes of tubing. Please refer to the chart on page 2
for acceptable tubing diameters for this model of Air Pump. Using large diameter tubing and
avoiding sharp bends will improve performance of this air pump after installation.
• Multiple air stones can be connected to the pump outlet by adding a 2-way air splitter.
Use new and sufficiently large air stones with enough discharge capacity. Air stones that are
too small, old, worn out or placed too deep will reduce the output capacity. Place air stones
no deeper than 7' (TA1800) and 11' (TA3600) below the surface of the water. 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 and compressor failure. Please note that an ambient temperature
above 110° F can cause the diaphragm to overheat and crack.
To prevent any water from flowing back into the pump when powered off, it is advisable to
install the pump above water level. Tubing must run at a downward slope away from the
compressor. The use of an inline check valve is also recommended to further prevent
moisture damage.
Service & Maintenance
Dust and debris blocking the air intake may cause abnormal noises or result in a failure of the
pump. Periodic cleaning of the air intake and sponge is recommended:
Unplug the air pump before cleaning or replacing the air intake sponge.
Remove the air intake cover, intake filter and clean with mild detergent.
Rinse the components thoroughly and allow to dry completely before reinstalling.
