Kasco Robust-Aire 1 Rocking Compressor Kit - NO Cabinet

Kasco Robust-Aire 1 Rocking Compressor Kit - NO Cabinet

The Kasco Robust-Aire System 1 is a premier diffused aeration solution designed for backyard ponds, lakes, and industrial applications. This specific "No Cabinet" option provides a cost-effective choice for users who already have a protected structure or ventilated enclosure for their equipment. By pumping compressed air from a shore-mounted compressor to a diffuser at the bottom of the water, the system creates a continuous curtain of bubbles that improves oxygen levels and prevents winterkill.

All Robust-Aire systems are built for long-term, continuous duty and are capable of operating in deep water environments. The system is available with an optional remote manifold, allowing the compressor to be installed up to a mile away from the water’s edge.

Key Features:

• Continuous Duty Aeration: Designed to run 24/7 to maintain optimal oxygen levels and water health.

• Oil-Less Compressor: Features a 1/4 HP Teich-Aire rocking piston compressor that requires no internal lubrication.

• Versatile Mounting: This "No Cabinet" version includes a universal mounting platform and cooling fan. It must be protected from the weather while allowing for adequate ventilation.

• High-Efficiency Diffuser: Includes a self-weighted stainless steel base with a check valve and integrated rope tie-offs for easy positioning.

• SureSink Weighted Tubing: Includes self-weighted tubing that stays firmly on the pond bottom without the need for additional weights.

• Winter Protection: Effective at preventing winterkill and providing waterfowl protection by maintaining open water in freezing temperatures.
