Quality materials and superior construction differentiates the Rhino over other Spindrifter type drains.
The Rhino II air drain is 4" ported, horizontal discharge
A few of the problems associated with the Spindrifter have been alleviated in the Rhino design including;
Thicker flanges and liner attachment ring that will not flex or crack
All attachments are machine fitted for extra strength with no need for gap filling
All joints are hand welded resulting in more strength than the speed welds used on the Spindrifter
3" height over the horizontal discharge port for more concrete over the horizontal discharge port (the Spindrifter requires a collar to increase the height over the drain)
Direct pipe connection into the air bladder (the Spindrifter requires you to snake an air line through the pipe)
Rhino air drains contain an air check valve to prevent water entering the air line.
Rhino drains are American made and cost less than the Spindrifter!
Most pondkeepers know that the best way to ensure clear pond water is with an ultraviolet sterilizer. Some often overlooked factors are what to do when the UV light is not doing the job anymore. Usually, this is a simple as an old lamp. Depending on the brand, UV lamps should generally be replaced about every 12-15 months of use.
