Maintain peak performance in your pond’s aeration system with the Airmax PTFE Non-Stick 6" Replacement Membrane. Specifically engineered for Airmax ProAir™ Diffusers, this membrane is the professional choice for DIYers looking to extend the life of their compressors.
Advanced PTFE Non-Stick Technology
Standard rubber membranes often struggle with mineral "scaling"—a process where calcium and bio-solids bond to the diffuser surface. The Airmax PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) coating prevents this buildup. By keeping the micro-slits clear, the membrane ensures your system maintains maximum oxygen transfer with minimal resistance.
The Importance of Genuine Airmax Replacements
- Protects Your Compressor: Reduced backpressure prevents the motor from overheating, a common cause of premature failure in pond systems.
- Consistent Aeration: Ensures a uniform bubble pattern for better vertical circulation and gas exchange.
- Ease of Integration: Designed for a perfect fit on existing Airmax ProAir series diffuser bases.
