Which diameter to choose?

The diameter is chosen based on the outlet of your air pump, valve or diffuser. The hose should fit snugly: too wide and it will leak; too narrow and it will split.

For the length, measure the route from the pump to the edge, add the depth of the pond and the distance to the diffuser location, then allow a few metres of spare hose. Enter this number of metres in the quantity.

Installation

1. Cut the hose cleanly with a utility knife for a watertight fit.
2. Push it fully onto the outlet of the pump or valve; for larger diameters, add a hose clamp.
3. Unroll it without kinks to the diffuser: being weighted, it will sink and stay at the bottom on its own.
4. Turn on the pump and check that there are no leaks or kinks.

Recommended with
