The Vertex Air 2XL Package Comes with 200' Weighted Tubing. These package systems include 100 ft. of weighted tubing per air station and is a super-efficient, affordable and safe system for circulating up to 16,380 GPM. (circulation rates test results) In a typical lake with 8 foot depths, an Air 2XL™ can aerate approximately 4 acres depending on dissolved oxygen demand and other factors. A 1/2 hp piston compressor, housed in our rustproof outdoor cabinet, feeds two bottom mounted AirStationXL™ Diffusers each utilizing Vertex’s MicronBubble™ technology. The majority of bubbles are only 500 to 1000 microns in diameter. As bubble size decreases, oxygen transfer rates increase dramatically. The rising force of millions of bubbles circulates the entire water column, entraining bottom water up to the surface allowing vital oxygen to be absorbed. Oxygen levels are increased and kept constant throughout the entire lake, preventing drastic O2 swings that can lead to fish-kills. With no electricity in the water, Vertex’s aeration systems are safe for any type of water recreation. Our self-cleaning AirStationXL™ Diffusers allow for years of high performance, reliability, low maintenance and are covered under our five-year warranty. ( System less tubing $2,110.00 )

Available Options:
Each AirStationXL™ consists of four self-cleaning, 9" diameter flexible membrane diffusers of EPDM compound with 100% rebound memory. Each diffuser station is equipped with a vacuum-formed HDPE base; sonic spot-welded to provide unit integrity. Base unit (17.25"L x 13.25"W x 3.35"D) has a hollow chamber design for the addition of gravel ballast and a lipped design to prevent settling into soft bottom sediments. Independently tested pumping rates provide confidence that system design will successfully provide specified oxygen transfer to the water body.
Built for continuous 24/7 operation and equipped with proprietary Vertex SafeStart™ technology, allowing auto restart under maximum rated pressure without motor damage. Super-duty Brookwood™ compressors incorporate upgraded rotors, stators, valve plates, bearings and capacitors and are thermally protected, oil-free, and require no lubrication; just periodic cleaning of included washable air filter. Extended duty cycle is approximately 24 to 36 months for compressor maintenance, about 2 to 3 times the duty cycle of ordinary piston and rotary vane compressors.
Cabinet is constructed of aluminum with gray electrostatically bonded powder coating. Equipped with a stamped ventilation grill, engineered fan plenum, directional exhaust and an integral cooling fan producing 290 CFM to guard against excessive compressor operating temperatures. Cabinet comes equipped with Class “A” GFCI Protection on both the compressor and fan circuits. Two-year warranty on all cabinet components including compressor, cooling fan and GFI. Five-year warranty against cabinet rust and corrosion.
Our weighted tubing uses common PVC insert fittings joined with PVC solvent eliminating the need for expensive hose clamps saving time and labor during installation. Due to our tubing's heavy construction (approx. 50 lb. per 100’ section) it is available in easy to handle 100’ sections. Compared to most companies five year or less guarantees, our 15 yr. warranty assures you that this tubing is the most durable self-weighted tubing available.
