EcoPlus Eco Air 2 Air Pump | 2 Outlets, 3 W, 126 GPH, Oil-Free

Inside the EcoPlus Eco Air 2

This two-outlet pump moves 126 GPH of air while drawing only 3 W from the wall. That is roughly 8 litres a minute, shared between the two outlets. Each outlet feeds its own airline, so one pump can serve two containers or two stones in one tank. It runs oil-free, so there is no lubricant to service and nothing to drip into the nutrient solution. EcoPlus uses durable cylinders and pistons built for continuous duty. The pump measures about 7.8 x 5.3 x 3.5 in and weighs roughly 1.45 lb. Its small footprint fits on a shelf above a pair of buckets or on the edge of a bench. At this wattage it can run around the clock for very little power. The pump carries a one-year warranty. Tubing and air stones are added separately, so each line can be matched to its container.

Setting Up an EcoPlus Air Pump for Two Containers

An ecoplus air pump with two outlets is a tidy way to oxygenate a pair of 5 gal DWC buckets from one plug. It also suits a small cloning tub with two stones, or a reservoir that needs bubbles at both ends. Keep the pump above the waterline, or fit a check valve on each line, so water cannot run back during a power cut. Cut both airlines to similar lengths, which helps the two stones bubble evenly. Sit each stone on the floor of its container so the bubbles rise through the full depth of water. Leave a drip loop in the power cord below the outlet. A rubber pad or folded towel under the pump keeps hum from carrying through a hollow shelf. Clean the stones when the bubble pattern turns uneven, because salt and mineral buildup slowly chokes airflow. Inspect the tubing at each reservoir change for kinks, splits and algae. Root zones need the most oxygen in warm weather, since warm water holds less of it. Run this way, it gives two small systems steady air for crop after crop.
