{"product_id":"hp-bubble-pro-max-compressor","title":"Scott Aerator ½ hp Bubble Pro Max Compressor","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis EasyPro half-horsepower rocking-piston compressor is the air source used in the Bubble Pro Max subsurface aeration system, sold here on its own. It is built for round-the-clock duty, which is what pond aeration demands: the unit is expected to run continuously rather than cycle on and off, so the internals are specified for sustained load instead of occasional use. It also pairs with other subsurface setups, making it a straightforward replacement or upgrade for an existing diffused-air system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe compressor runs oil-free, so there is no crankcase oil to monitor or change and no risk of oil carrying downstream into the airline. Like all shore-mounted aeration compressors, it keeps the electrical side of the system entirely out of the pond — only air travels down the tubing to the diffusers, which is why diffused aeration is favoured where swimmers, livestock or fish are involved.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAir delivery is rated at 4.3 CFM against the back pressure of a 10-foot water column, which is the figure that matters when sizing a compressor to diffuser count and pond depth. The unit is offered in two voltage builds: a 115 V version drawing 3.6 amps and a 230 V version drawing 1.8 amps. Choosing between them generally comes down to what service is already available at the shoreline equipment location.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConstruction is geared toward long service intervals. The castings are die-cast aluminum, which keeps the unit light enough to handle and mount without special equipment, and the cylinder is hard-coated to resist wear from continuous piston travel. Bearings are permanently lubricated, and the piston seal — the part that eventually wears in any rocking-piston design — is made to be swapped out rather than requiring a whole new compressor.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Scott Aerator","offers":[{"title":"115 volts","offer_id":67834440614079,"sku":"44060","price":879.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"230 volts","offer_id":67834440646847,"sku":"44061","price":899.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/1967\/6351\/files\/compressor-02-quarter-hp-iso-1920px.jpg?v=1793492813","url":"https:\/\/adventuremotion.com\/products\/hp-bubble-pro-max-compressor","provider":"Adventure Motion","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
