Pond Boss Forums AERATION Systems questions 1/3 or 1/2?

Installed the refurbed compressor, Brookwood 106 1/2 HP today. Got a pressure gauge for it. It's running 2 of the Vertex XL2 stations, one with 200 ft of hose and the other with 100 ft of hose.

It's running at 6 PSI, nicely.

When I hooked it up to the line with the airstone on it, the pressure relief valve popped off at 10 PSI, as the hose was filled with water. I then took the airstone off, attached the second XL 2, and the pressure went to 6. With the one XL 2 and the airstone on, the pressure was running about 7 or 8.

The bottom weighted hose is awesome, and can't wait to put it in our other pond. Hope to get 2 more XL 2's for that pond next year.

THANKS TED!
