Unit price perThe HydroPC 16mm Pressure Compensated Drip Line - 1.6L/h - 30cm Spacing - 400m is a 16mm pressure-compensated drip line supplied in a 400m roll, with stated emitter flow of 1.6L/h and 30cm emitter spacing.
It is designed for compatible professional nursery, greenhouse and horticultural irrigation systems where emitter spacing and flow are matched to crop layout and water demand.
Key benefits
Matching emitter spacing to the crop
This line uses 30cm emitter spacing. Select spacing according to crop layout, substrate or soil wetting pattern and the number of emitters required across the root zone.
Closer spacing increases the number of emitters operating over a given run length and therefore changes total zone flow demand.
Emitter flow & irrigation scheduling
The stated emitter flow is 1.6L/h. Irrigation duration should be based on crop demand, root-zone volume, weather and actual system output rather than a fixed run time.
Pressure compensation is intended to support more consistent emitter performance within the product operating conditions, but the complete system still needs appropriate pressure, filtration and hydraulic design.
Planning irrigation zones
Calculate the number of operating emitters or outlets and total flow demand before finalising a zone. Long runs, elevation changes and undersized supply pipework can affect pressure and irrigation uniformity.
Divide systems into manageable zones where necessary rather than exceeding the available water supply or the practical hydraulic capacity of the installation.
Filtration, flushing & commissioning
Use filtration appropriate to the water source and emitter waterways. Flush new lines before routine use where appropriate, then run the system and inspect representative outlets for expected delivery.
Maintain filters and flush lines according to water quality and system requirements. Investigate blocked emitters, leaks or damaged pipe promptly.
Installation & storage
Route lines without kinking or crushing and protect them from sharp edges and traffic. Store unused coils clean and protected from physical damage before installation.

How long is the supplied roll?
The supplied roll length is 400m. What spacing is stated?
The stated outlet/emitter spacing is 30cm. What emitter flow is stated?
The stated emitter flow is 1.6L/h. How do I know how much water the zone requires?
Calculate the number of operating emitters or outlets and their flow, then compare total demand with the available water supply and hydraulic design. Is filtration important?
Yes. Suitable filtration helps protect small emitter waterways and maintain irrigation uniformity. Should new irrigation lines be flushed?
Flush and commission lines as appropriate to the system before relying on them for crop irrigation. Can very long runs affect uniformity?
Yes. Run length, elevation, pipe size, total flow and pressure all influence system performance. How should the line be installed?
Avoid kinks, crushing and sharp edges and protect the line from traffic or other physical damage. How should irrigation performance be checked?
Inspect and, where useful, measure output at representative points across the zone and investigate meaningful differences.
The GEKA Large Alloy Rose 3/4" Female STANDARD is a GEKA watering rose designed for producing a dispersed watering pattern from a compatible lance or 3/4-inch fitting.
Professional hand watering allows growers to direct water where it is needed and adjust technique to the crop, container size and growing environment.
Key benefits
Choosing & maintaining a watering rose
Fit the rose only to a compatible lance or fitting. Select the watering pattern to suit the crop and avoid using excessive pressure that can disturb growing media, seedlings or delicate foliage.
Keep rose openings clean and remove mineral or debris build-up if the watering pattern becomes uneven.
Watering crops effectively
Water demand changes with crop size, container volume, substrate, temperature, light and airflow. Check the crop and growing medium rather than applying the same volume automatically to every plant.
Where possible, water evenly and allow appropriate drainage, adjusting frequency and volume to the crop rather than compensating for poor irrigation uniformity with excessive water.
Care & maintenance
Keep connections, valves and rose openings clean. Inspect seals and threaded fittings periodically and replace worn parts when leakage or poor operation develops.

Unit price perCover larger growing areas with fewer refills using this 8 litre pressure sprayer with application lance, adjustable spray nozzle and shoulder strap.
The AquaKing 8L Pressure Sprayer is a practical choice for growers who regularly apply foliar feeds, plant treatments or water across larger groups of plants. Its generous 8 litre tank provides plenty of working capacity while remaining portable enough to carry around greenhouses, nurseries, grow rooms and gardens.
A hand-operated pump pressurises the tank, allowing you to spray through the flexible hose and application lance without continuously pumping. The adjustable nozzle can be changed from a concentrated jet through to a fine mist, giving you control over the way liquid is applied.
An adjustable shoulder strap makes the sprayer easier to carry while working, while the lockable spray handle is particularly useful during longer applications where holding the trigger continuously would quickly become tiring.
Why choose the AquaKing 8L Pressure Sprayer?
Ideal for foliar feeding and plant treatments
With its 8 litre capacity, hose and application lance, this AquaKing pressure sprayer is particularly useful when treating more than a handful of plants. The lance lets you work around foliage and reach further into the canopy, including areas that can be awkward to cover with a small hand-held trigger sprayer.
For foliar feeding, the nozzle can be adjusted towards a fine mist to achieve controlled coverage across leaf surfaces. The adjustable output also gives the sprayer the versatility needed for general plant watering and other compatible liquid applications.
The combination of a larger tank and shoulder strap makes the 8L version particularly well suited to commercial growing areas, greenhouses and larger indoor gardens where a smaller spray bottle would require frequent refilling.
How to use the AquaKing 8L Pressure Sprayer
Add the required liquid to the tank, using the graduated markings to help measure the volume. Leave sufficient space for the tank to be pressurised and secure the pump assembly firmly before use.
Operate the pump to build pressure inside the tank. Once pressurised, use the trigger on the application lance to begin spraying and adjust the nozzle until you achieve the required spray pattern.
When applying foliar feeds or plant treatment products, always follow the application rate and safety instructions supplied with the product being used. Avoid mixing products in the sprayer unless their instructions specifically allow them to be combined.
After use, release the pressure using the pressure-release valve. Empty the sprayer appropriately and rinse the tank, hose, lance and nozzle with clean water. Running clean water through the lance helps prevent residues drying inside the nozzle and causing blockages.

Unit price perThe Supertif Non-Drain Dripper - 7.8L/h Straight Conic Outlet is a professional irrigation dripper with a stated nominal flow of 7.8L/h and a straight conic outlet configuration.
It is intended for compatible nursery, greenhouse and container-crop irrigation systems where individual emitters are selected as part of the complete hydraulic design.
Key benefits
Selecting dripper flow rate
The stated nominal flow for this model is 7.8L/h. Select emitter flow according to crop water demand, container volume, substrate, irrigation frequency and the number of emitters serving each plant.
A higher nominal flow is not automatically better. Short irrigation events, small containers or low-retention substrates may require a different strategy from large nursery stock or longer irrigation zones.
Outlet configuration & installation
This version uses a straight conic outlet. Match the outlet to the intended microtube, stake or downstream connection and use compatible insertion tools where required. Do not force mismatched tube or fittings onto the emitter.
Route downstream tube without kinks and avoid side-loading the dripper connection. Secure stakes or outlets so water is delivered consistently to the intended root-zone position.
Non-drain irrigation behaviour
A non-drain dripper should be considered as part of the complete irrigation zone. Line drainage, elevation changes, start-up behaviour and pressure conditions can influence how quickly individual containers receive water at the beginning and end of an irrigation cycle.
Where highly uniform short pulses are required, verify actual system behaviour across representative positions rather than relying only on the emitter's nominal flow figure.
Pressure, filtration & uniformity
Emitter performance depends on suitable operating pressure and clean water. Use filtration appropriate to the water source and irrigation system and monitor pressure where necessary across longer or more complex zones.
Periodically collect and compare output from representative emitters. Differences can indicate blockage, pressure variation, damaged pipework or installation issues.
Maintenance
Flush irrigation lines according to water quality and system requirements. Inspect emitters and downstream components for blockage or damage and replace components that cannot be restored to reliable operation.

Unit price perThe PGV 1.5" Solenoid Irrigation Valve with Flow Control is designed for automated control of compatible professional irrigation zones.
Solenoid and pressure-regulating valves allow irrigation sections to be opened, closed or controlled as part of a correctly designed nursery, greenhouse, landscape or horticultural water system.
Key benefits
Automated irrigation-zone control
Use the valve to control a compatible irrigation zone from the appropriate controller or switching system. Size the valve and pipework for the required zone flow and available pressure, and install it in the correct flow direction.
Where flow control is provided, use it for appropriate adjustment and commissioning rather than as a substitute for correct hydraulic design.
Electrical compatibility
The stated electrical designation for this version is Controller/solenoid dependent. Confirm controller output, solenoid type and wiring requirements before connection. Do not apply an assumed voltage simply because another valve in the same irrigation system uses it.
Electrical installation in wet horticultural environments should use suitable connections and protection and should be carried out in accordance with the applicable installation requirements.
Installation & commissioning
Flush upstream pipework before final commissioning where appropriate. Install the valve with adequate access for service, support connected pipework and avoid transferring pipe strain into the valve body.
Pressurise the system gradually, check for leakage and confirm that the valve opens and closes correctly under normal controller operation.
Flow, pressure & filtration
Valve performance depends on the complete hydraulic system. Available pressure, flow demand, pipe size, elevation and downstream equipment all influence operation. Use filtration appropriate to the water source and the irrigation components being protected.
Maintenance & fault finding
If a valve fails to open, close or regulate correctly, isolate the system safely and check controller output, wiring, solenoid condition, debris, diaphragm or internal components as appropriate to the valve design. Replace damaged parts rather than forcing manual operation.

Compact 50mm golf ball air stone for adding a steady stream of bubbles and extra aeration to hydroponic nutrient solutions.
The 50mm Golf Ball Air Stone is a simple and effective way to aerate nutrient solutions and water reservoirs. Connect it to a suitable air pump using 4mm airline and the porous stone disperses the incoming air as bubbles throughout the solution.
Increasing aeration helps keep nutrient solution moving and supplies additional oxygen to the water around the root zone. Its compact golf ball shape makes this a useful choice for individual reservoirs, DWC buckets, bubbler systems and other hydroponic setups where space is limited.
For larger growing systems, several air stones can be operated from a suitably sized air pump using an airline manifold, allowing aeration to be distributed across multiple pots or reservoirs.
Why use a 50mm Golf Ball Air Stone?
What is a golf ball air stone used for?
A golf ball air stone is submerged in water or nutrient solution and connected to an external air pump. Air passes through the porous body of the stone and is dispersed into the surrounding solution as bubbles.
In hydroponic growing systems, air stones are commonly used in nutrient reservoirs and DWC systems to increase aeration around the root zone. They can also help keep the solution moving rather than allowing it to remain completely still.
How to use the 50mm Golf Ball Air Stone
Connect a length of compatible 4mm airline to the air stone inlet, then connect the other end to a suitable air pump or air manifold. Place the air stone below the surface of the water or nutrient solution and switch on the air pump.
Positioning the air stone towards the bottom of the reservoir allows the bubbles to travel through more of the solution before reaching the surface, helping circulate and aerate the surrounding water.
When running several air stones from one pump, make sure the pump provides sufficient airflow for the complete setup. A manifold can be used to divide the main air supply between individual 4mm airline runs.

Unit price perHigh-output 70mm cylindrical air stone for increasing aeration and circulation in hydroponic nutrient reservoirs and DWC systems.
The 70mm Coke Can Air Stone is designed to disperse air throughout water or nutrient solution, helping growers maintain a well-aerated root environment. Its cylindrical shape provides a larger diffusing surface than smaller ball-style air stones, making it a useful choice for hydroponic reservoirs and systems requiring a stronger level of aeration.
Connect the air stone to a suitably powerful external air pump and submerge it in the reservoir. Air is forced through the porous body, creating a continuous spread of bubbles that helps increase dissolved oxygen and keeps the surrounding nutrient solution moving.
Coke can air stones are particularly well suited to DWC, bubbler systems and nutrient reservoirs. Several can also be run from a larger air pump using a suitable airline manifold for multi-pot or multi-reservoir installations.
Why choose a 70mm Coke Can Air Stone?
What is a Coke Can Air Stone used for?
A Coke Can Air Stone is a porous diffuser used to introduce air into water or hydroponic nutrient solution. Unlike an open airline that releases air from a single point, the porous surface breaks the incoming airflow into a continuous spread of bubbles.
In hydroponics, this makes it particularly useful for aerating nutrient reservoirs and systems where plant roots remain in or have regular contact with nutrient solution. The moving bubbles increase gas exchange and help prevent the water immediately around the diffuser from remaining stagnant.
Ideal for DWC and hydroponic reservoirs
The larger cylindrical design makes this air stone particularly useful in deep water culture systems and nutrient tanks where stronger aeration is required. It can be positioned towards the bottom of the reservoir so bubbles rise through the nutrient solution before reaching the surface.
For multi-pot systems, several air stones can be connected to a suitably sized air pump. An airline manifold can divide the main air supply into individual feeds for each reservoir or growing position.
How to use the 70mm Coke Can Air Stone
Connect the air stone to compatible airline running from a suitable external air pump or compressor. Submerge the complete porous section of the air stone in the water or nutrient solution, ideally positioning it towards the bottom of the reservoir.
Switch on the air pump and check that bubbles are being produced across the diffuser. This 70mm Coke Can Air Stone is designed for relatively high airflow and is listed for approximately 5 – 10 litres of air per minute, so the connected pump should be appropriately sized.
If bubble production reduces over time, inspect the airline and air stone for restrictions or mineral deposits. Keeping the diffuser clean helps maintain consistent airflow through its porous surface.

Unit price perLarge 100mm cylindrical air stone for powerful aeration and circulation in hydroponic nutrient reservoirs and DWC systems.
The 100mm Coke Can Air Stone is a large porous air diffuser designed to introduce a continuous supply of bubbles into water or hydroponic nutrient solution. Its substantial cylindrical surface provides plenty of area for dispersing air, making it particularly useful in larger reservoirs and systems that need vigorous aeration.
Connect the air stone to a suitably powerful external air pump and position it below the surface of the nutrient solution. Air passes through the porous diffuser and emerges as bubbles, increasing aeration while helping to keep the surrounding solution moving.
The 100mm version measures approximately 100mm high by 50mm in diameter, giving it a larger diffusing body than the 70mm Coke Can Air Stone. It is a useful choice for DWC systems, bubbler systems and larger hydroponic nutrient reservoirs.
Why choose a 100mm Coke Can Air Stone?
What is a 100mm Coke Can Air Stone used for?
A Coke Can Air Stone is submerged in water or nutrient solution and supplied with air from an external pump. The porous body breaks the incoming airflow into bubbles rather than releasing air from a single open airline.
This makes the 100mm version particularly useful for hydroponic nutrient tanks and DWC systems where continuous aeration is needed around submerged roots. Its larger cylindrical body also makes it a practical option for bigger reservoirs where a small air stone may not provide the desired spread of bubbles.
Ideal for larger hydroponic reservoirs
At approximately 100mm high and 50mm in diameter, this is a sizeable air diffuser designed for use with a suitable high-output air pump. Positioning the air stone towards the bottom of a reservoir allows bubbles to rise through more of the nutrient solution before reaching the surface.
Several Coke Can Air Stones can also be incorporated into a larger aeration system. A suitable airline manifold allows one sufficiently powerful air pump or compressor to supply individual air stones across several reservoirs or growing positions.
How to use the 100mm Coke Can Air Stone
Connect the air stone to compatible airline running from a suitable external air pump or compressor. Place the air stone in the nutrient tank or reservoir, keeping the porous diffuser submerged and preferably positioned towards the bottom.
Switch on the air pump and check that bubbles are being produced through the diffuser. Coke Can Air Stones require a substantial air supply, with current UK hydroponic listings specifying approximately 5 – 10 litres of air per minute, so use a pump capable of providing the required airflow.
If the air stone is being used as part of a multi-outlet system, remember that the pump's total output is shared between all connected diffusers. The air pump therefore needs to be sized for the complete aeration setup rather than for a single air stone.
Over time, deposits can restrict the porous surface and reduce bubble production. Keeping the diffuser clean and checking the airline for kinks or blockages will help maintain consistent performance.

Unit price per50m roll of porous 4mm bubbler tubing for creating custom-length air diffusers and an even wall of bubbles in hydroponic reservoirs.
This 4mm Bubbler Tubing gives growers a flexible alternative to conventional air stones. Instead of carrying air to a separate diffuser, the porous tubing releases air through its surface, producing bubbles along the length of the tube.
Supplied as a 50m roll, it can be cut and arranged to suit different reservoir shapes and aeration layouts. This makes it particularly useful for custom hydroponic systems, larger nutrient tanks and applications where you want to spread aeration across a wider area rather than concentrate it around a single air stone.
The tubing has a 4mm internal diameter and approximately 9mm external diameter. Connect it to a suitable air supply, close the far end and position the porous section within the reservoir to create your own air diffuser.
Why choose 4mm Bubbler Tubing?
What is bubbler tubing used for?
Bubbler tubing is a porous air diffuser supplied in flexible tube form. When connected to an air pump, air passes through the walls of the submerged tubing and creates a fine, even spread of bubbles.
Because the tubing itself acts as the diffuser, growers can create aeration layouts that follow the shape of a reservoir or cover a wider area than a small individual air stone. It is particularly useful for DIY hydroponic systems and custom reservoir setups.
Bubbler tubing or an air stone?
A conventional air stone concentrates aeration around a fixed diffuser. Bubbler tubing allows the diffusing area to be extended along a chosen length, giving you more freedom over where bubbles are produced within the reservoir.
This makes bubbler tubing a useful option for long tanks, larger reservoirs and unusual layouts where several fixed air stones would otherwise be needed to spread aeration across the available space.
How to use 4mm Bubbler Tubing
Cut the bubbler tubing to the required length for your reservoir or aeration layout. Connect one end to a compatible airline supply from a suitably sized air pump, using the appropriate connector where required.
Seal the opposite end with a compatible stop end so that the incoming air is forced through the porous wall of the tubing. Position the bubbler tubing below the surface of the water or nutrient solution, then switch on the air pump and check that bubbles are being produced along the required section.
Longer lengths of bubbler tubing place greater demand on the air supply, so the connected pump should be sized for the amount of tubing being operated and the level of aeration required.

4mm Bubbler Tubing FAQs
What is bubbler tubing?
Bubbler tubing is porous tubing designed to act as an air diffuser. When connected to an air pump and submerged, air escapes through the tubing wall to create bubbles along its length.
Does bubbler tubing replace an air stone?
Yes, it can. The porous tubing itself acts as the diffuser, so a separate air stone is not required at the end of the bubbler section.
What size is this bubbler tubing?
The tubing has a 4mm internal diameter and approximately 9mm external diameter. This product is supplied as a 50m roll.
Can I cut bubbler tubing to length?
Yes. One of the main advantages of bubbler tubing is that it can be cut to create an aeration section suited to the reservoir or hydroponic system being built.
Do I need to seal the end of bubbler tubing?
Yes. The far end should be closed with a compatible stop end so that the supplied air is forced through the porous tubing rather than escaping freely from the open end.
Can I use bubbler tubing in a hydroponic reservoir?
Yes. It is particularly useful for hydroponic reservoirs because the tubing can be positioned to distribute bubbles across a wider area of nutrient solution.
Is bubbler tubing suitable for DWC?
Yes. Bubbler tubing can be used as a diffuser in DWC systems where continuous nutrient solution aeration is required.
What air pump do I need for bubbler tubing?
The required pump capacity depends on the length of bubbler tubing being operated and the aeration required. Longer diffuser runs need a greater air supply than short sections, so the pump should be sized for the complete setup.
Can I make a custom-shaped air diffuser with bubbler tubing?
Yes. Its flexible format makes bubbler tubing useful for creating custom aeration layouts within reservoirs where a conventional fixed air stone may not provide the desired coverage.
200m roll of clear 4mm airline tubing for connecting air pumps and manifolds to air stones, diffusers and hydroponic aeration equipment.
This 4mm Clear Airline Tubing provides the link between your air pump and the equipment doing the aerating. Supplied on a generous 200m roll, it is ideal for building larger hydroponic aeration systems, replacing old airline or cutting multiple individual runs for pots and reservoirs.
Use it to carry air from a compatible air pump directly to an air stone, or connect it to the outlets of an airline manifold when one larger pump is supplying several aeration points.
The long 200m roll is particularly useful for commercial grow rooms, propagation areas and multi-pot hydroponic installations where numerous lengths of airline are needed from one central supply.
Why choose 4mm Clear Airline Tubing?
What is 4mm airline tubing used for?
Airline tubing carries air from an external air pump to an air stone, diffuser or other aeration accessory. In hydroponic systems, this allows growers to position the pump away from the reservoir while delivering air directly to the submerged diffuser.
It can also be used with compatible airline manifolds. A larger incoming air supply is divided at the manifold, with individual lengths of 4mm airline then running to separate air stones or aeration points.
This makes a 200m roll particularly practical for DWC systems, nutrient reservoirs, propagation setups and larger multi-pot installations where many separate airline runs are required.
How to use 4mm Airline Tubing
Cut the airline to the length required for your installation. Push one end securely onto the compatible outlet of your air pump or manifold and connect the other end to an air stone, diffuser or other suitable aeration accessory.
Route the tubing neatly between the air supply and reservoir, avoiding sharp bends, crushing or kinks that could restrict airflow. For multi-pot installations, cut individual runs from the roll and connect them to the corresponding outlets on the manifold.
When planning a larger system, remember that longer airline runs and multiple air stones increase the demand placed on the pump. The air pump should therefore provide enough total airflow for the complete installation.

Unit price per150mm flat ceramic air stone for producing a wide spread of fine bubbles across hydroponic nutrient reservoirs and DWC systems.
The 150mm Round Flat Ceramic Air Stone provides a simple way to increase aeration and movement throughout a hydroponic nutrient solution. Its broad, porous ceramic surface releases air as many small bubbles, spreading aeration over a much wider area than a compact ball-style air stone.
At 150mm or 6 inches in diameter, the disc sits flat at the bottom of a reservoir or tank. Connect the 4mm inlet to a suitable air pump using compatible airline and the incoming air is distributed through the porous ceramic body.
It is particularly useful for DWC systems, hydroponic nutrient reservoirs and other growing systems where continuous aeration helps keep the solution moving around the root zone.
Why choose a 150mm Flat Ceramic Air Stone?
What is a flat ceramic air stone used for?
A flat ceramic air stone is a submerged diffuser that takes air from an external pump and distributes it through thousands of small pores. Instead of releasing air from a single open airline, the ceramic surface produces a broad spread of bubbles across the reservoir.
The 150mm disc format is particularly useful where you want aeration distributed across a wider area. Its low, flat shape allows the air stone to sit at the bottom of the tank while bubbles rise through the nutrient solution above it.
Ideal for DWC and nutrient reservoirs
In deep water culture systems, roots spend extended periods in nutrient solution, making active aeration an important part of the setup. A flat air stone positioned beneath the root zone creates a continuous stream of bubbles while helping keep the nutrient solution moving.
The 150mm size is also well suited to standalone nutrient reservoirs and other hydroponic tanks where a broader diffusing surface is preferred to a small individual air stone.
How to use the 150mm Ceramic Air Stone
Connect compatible 4mm airline to the inlet on the side of the air stone, then connect the other end to a suitably sized external air pump. Place the ceramic disc flat at the bottom of the reservoir and keep the porous section submerged.
Once the pump is switched on, air passes through the ceramic body and bubbles rise through the surrounding water or nutrient solution.
Keep the airline free from kinks and restrictions. For added protection against water travelling back towards the pump when it is switched off, the air pump can be positioned above the water level or a suitable non-return valve can be incorporated into the airline.

Does this air stone need an air pump?
Yes. The ceramic air stone is a diffuser and requires a suitable external air pump to supply the airflow.
Is an air pump or airline included?
No. The air stone is supplied separately, so a suitable air pump and compatible 4mm airline are required to create a complete aeration setup.
Can I use more than one 150mm air stone?
Yes. Multiple air stones can be incorporated into a larger aeration system provided the connected air pump has sufficient output. A suitable manifold can be used to divide the air supply between separate airline runs.
Why use a flat air stone instead of a small ball air stone?
The larger flat ceramic surface spreads bubbles across a wider area, making it useful when you want broader aeration across the bottom of a nutrient reservoir rather than a concentrated stream from a smaller diffuser.
100mm flat ceramic air stone for creating a wide spread of fine bubbles in hydroponic nutrient reservoirs and DWC systems.
The 100mm Round Flat Ceramic Air Stone provides effective aeration without taking up unnecessary space in the bottom of a reservoir. Its broad porous surface disperses air as many small bubbles, helping oxygenate the nutrient solution while creating useful movement within the tank.
Measuring 100mm, or approximately 4 inches, across, this compact ceramic disc sits flat on the bottom of a reservoir. Connect it to a suitable external air pump using compatible airline and air is forced through the porous stone before bubbling through the surrounding solution.
It is a practical choice for DWC buckets, hydroponic nutrient reservoirs and other systems where continuous aeration is required around the root zone.
Why choose a 100mm Flat Ceramic Air Stone?
What is a flat ceramic air stone used for?
A flat ceramic air stone acts as a submerged diffuser. Air supplied by an external pump is forced through the many pores in the ceramic body, creating a spread of small bubbles rather than releasing the air from one open airline.
As those bubbles rise through the reservoir they create movement in the nutrient solution and increase aeration. The flat disc design also keeps the diffuser low in the tank, allowing bubbles to rise through the water from near the bottom of the reservoir.
Ideal for DWC and hydroponic reservoirs
The 100mm size is particularly useful for DWC buckets and individual nutrient reservoirs where a compact diffuser with a broad bubbling surface is required.
For larger hydroponic installations, several ceramic air stones can be positioned in separate pots or reservoirs. A suitably sized air pump and manifold can then distribute air between the individual diffuser lines.
How to use the 100mm Ceramic Air Stone
Connect suitable flexible airline between the ceramic air stone and an appropriately sized external air pump. Place the air stone flat at the bottom of the reservoir, keeping the porous ceramic section submerged.
Switch on the pump and air will pass through the porous surface, producing bubbles throughout the surrounding nutrient solution. Positioning the diffuser low in the reservoir gives those bubbles more distance to travel before reaching the surface.
Keep airline runs free from kinks and restrictions that could reduce airflow. Positioning the air pump above the water level helps protect it against water siphoning back through the airline if the power is switched off.

Unit price per150L hydroponic nutrient chiller with digital temperature control for keeping reservoir temperatures stable when growing conditions heat up.
The Hailea HC-150A Nutrient Chiller gives growers active control over the temperature of recirculating water and nutrient solution. Rather than allowing reservoir temperatures to rise with the surrounding grow room, solution is pumped through the chiller, cooled and returned to the system.
Designed for systems with a nominal water refrigeration capacity of 150 litres, the HC-150A operates with a recommended flow range of 250 – 1,200 litres per hour. Its digital controller lets you set the required temperature, while the integrated refrigeration system automatically cools the circulating solution as needed.
The HC-150A is particularly useful for DWC and other recirculating hydroponic systems during warmer conditions. Keeping nutrient solution temperatures under control helps maintain a more stable root-zone environment when grow room and ambient temperatures begin to climb.
Why choose the Hailea HC-150A Nutrient Chiller?
Why control hydroponic nutrient temperature?
Reservoir temperature can rise quickly in warm grow rooms, particularly during summer or when pumps, lighting and other equipment are adding heat to the growing environment. A nutrient chiller gives you a controlled way to remove that heat instead of relying solely on the ambient room temperature.
Water also holds less dissolved oxygen as its temperature increases. Keeping the root-zone solution within an appropriate temperature range therefore helps growers maintain conditions that are more favourable for oxygen availability and healthy root development.
For hydroponic systems where roots spend significant time in nutrient solution, including DWC and recirculating DWC, that extra control can become particularly valuable during prolonged periods of warm weather.
What systems can the Hailea HC-150A be used with?
The HC-150A can be incorporated into hydroponic systems and standalone reservoirs where nutrient solution can be continuously circulated through the chiller.
Typical applications include DWC and recirculating DWC systems, nutrient tanks and other active hydroponic systems where a circulation pump can move solution from the reservoir through the chiller and back again.
How the Hailea HC-150A works
A separate water pump draws nutrient solution from the reservoir and sends it through the inlet of the HC-150A. The solution passes through the chiller, where heat is removed, before returning through the outlet to the reservoir or recirculating system.
The HC-150A should receive a water flow of approximately 250 – 1,200 litres per hour. Correct circulation is important because the refrigeration performance of the unit is affected by water flow as well as reservoir volume, ambient temperature and other sources of heat within the installation.
The chiller itself releases the heat removed from the nutrient solution into the surrounding air, so it should be installed in a well-ventilated position with sufficient space for heat to dissipate.
A circulation pump and connecting pipework are required to create a complete installation and are supplied separately.

Hailea HC-150A Nutrient Chiller FAQs
What size reservoir is the Hailea HC-150A designed for?
The HC-150A has a nominal water refrigeration capacity of 150 litres. Actual cooling performance is also influenced by ambient temperature, water flow, pumps, lighting and other sources of heat within the installation.
What flow rate does the Hailea HC-150A need?
Hailea specifies a water flow range of 250 – 1,200 litres per hour for the HC-150A. A suitable separate circulation pump is required to move nutrient solution through the chiller.
Does the Hailea HC-150A include a water pump?
No. The HC-150A is the refrigeration unit itself. A suitable circulation pump and connecting pipework are required to move nutrient solution from the reservoir through the chiller and back into the system.
Is the Hailea HC-150A suitable for DWC?
Yes. The HC-150A is well suited to DWC and recirculating DWC installations where nutrient solution temperature needs to be actively controlled.
Can the HC-150A be used with a standalone nutrient reservoir?
Yes. A pump can circulate solution from the reservoir through the chiller before returning the cooled solution to the tank.
Why use a nutrient chiller in hydroponics?
A nutrient chiller allows the temperature of the root-zone solution to be controlled independently of warmer ambient conditions. This is particularly useful during summer and in indoor growing environments where equipment can add heat to the reservoir.
Does warmer nutrient solution contain less dissolved oxygen?
Yes. The amount of dissolved oxygen that water can hold decreases as water temperature rises. Managing reservoir temperature therefore forms an important part of maintaining a well-aerated hydroponic root zone.
Does the HC-150A need ventilation?
Yes. The chiller removes heat from the circulating solution and releases that heat into the surrounding environment. It should therefore be positioned where there is adequate airflow around the unit rather than enclosed in a poorly ventilated space.
What are the dimensions of the Hailea HC-150A?
The HC-150A measures approximately 420 x 248 x 365mm and weighs 15kg.

Designed to provide high airflow at low pressure, the ET40 is particularly well suited to hydroponic aeration. Connect it to a suitable air manifold and the output can be divided between multiple airline runs, allowing one pump to supply several air stones or diffusers around a growing system.
The ET40 combines a robust, compact and weatherproof housing with Charles Austen's energy-efficient Green Drive technology. It can be used for continuous-duty applications, making it a practical choice for DWC systems and nutrient reservoirs where reliable aeration is required around the clock.
Why choose the Enviro ET40 Air Pump?
What is the Enviro ET40 suitable for?
The ET40 is particularly useful when a standard small air pump no longer provides enough airflow for the system. Its 40L/min output makes it suitable for larger hydroponic reservoirs, DWC and recirculating DWC systems, bubbler systems and installations using multiple air stones.
Rather than using a separate pump for every air stone, the ET40 can supply a compatible manifold. The manifold divides the incoming air into individual outlets, with airline then carrying the air to separate diffusers around the system.
This approach makes the ET40 a practical central air supply for larger grow rooms and multi-pot systems where reliable aeration needs to be distributed across several points.
How to use the Charles Austen ET40
Position the ET40 in a stable, well-ventilated location and connect its air outlet to suitable air distribution equipment. The pump has a 14mm connection and is supplied with an elbow connector for straightforward installation.
For multi-air-stone hydroponic systems, connect the main pump outlet to a compatible air manifold. Individual lengths of airline can then be run from the manifold outlets to air stones or diffusers positioned within the nutrient reservoir or individual DWC pots.
Keep airline runs as direct as practical and avoid kinks or restrictions that could reduce airflow. Where several diffusers are being operated together, distributing the air evenly helps maintain consistent aeration throughout the system.
Charles Austen recommends servicing Enviro pumps at least every 18 months. ET-series service kits are available to replace the appropriate service components and help keep the pump performing reliably.

The Hailea ACO-9602 is a compact twin-outlet air pump designed for growers who need reliable aeration without moving up to a larger multi-outlet unit. With two individual air outlets and a combined maximum airflow of 7.2 litres per minute, it is ideal for running a pair of air stones or providing aeration at two points within a hydroponic system.
A variable flow control on top of the pump allows the overall output to be adjusted to suit your setup. This makes the ACO-9602 a flexible option for smaller DWC systems, propagation setups and nutrient reservoirs where the required airflow can vary.
The pump uses an oil-free diaphragm design together with multilevel sound suppression and vibration damping. With a rated noise level below 40dB and power consumption of just 5W, it provides efficient continuous aeration without the size or power demand of a larger air pump.
Why choose the Hailea ACO-9602 Air Pump?
Ideal for two air stones and smaller hydroponic systems
The ACO-9602 is particularly well suited to growers who want to operate two air stones from one pump. Each outlet can feed a separate airline, allowing aeration to be divided between two DWC pots or two positions within a nutrient reservoir.
It can also be used where a single reservoir benefits from having two diffusers positioned apart from one another, helping distribute aeration across a wider area rather than concentrating it in one position.
With adjustable airflow from approximately 0.8 – 7.2 litres per minute, the output can be reduced when maximum airflow is not required.
How to use the Hailea ACO-9602
Position the pump on a firm, dry and level surface above the water level of your reservoir. Connect compatible 4mm airline to one or both outlets, then attach an air stone or suitable diffuser to the opposite end of each airline.
Place the air stones into the nutrient solution before switching on the pump. Once running, use the control on top of the ACO-9602 to adjust the overall airflow until you achieve the required level of aeration.
Keep the airline free from kinks, tight bends and other restrictions that could reduce airflow. If the pump has to be positioned below the water level, fit suitable non-return valves in the airline to help prevent water siphoning back towards the pump when it is switched off.
Check your airline and air stones periodically and clean or replace components when deposits begin to restrict airflow. Keeping the air path clear helps the pump maintain consistent performance.

Unit price perHigh-output 60L/min air pump supplied with a 10-way manifold for powerful aeration across DWC systems, nutrient reservoirs and multiple air stones.
The Hailea ACO-9820 is a high-capacity diaphragm air pump designed for hydroponic systems that need serious amounts of aeration. Producing up to 60 litres of air per minute, equivalent to 3,600 litres per hour, it provides a central air supply for larger reservoirs and multi-pot growing systems.
Unlike the smaller ACO-96 series pumps with individual outlets built into the casing, the ACO-9820 has a high-output main connection and is supplied with a 10-way manifold. This divides the pump's airflow between multiple airline runs, making it straightforward to operate a bank of air stones from one pump.
Hailea's Super Silent design combines double damping, noise absorption and anti-vibration features to reduce operating noise. The oil-free diaphragm system provides clean compressed air, making the ACO-9820 particularly well suited to hydroponic nutrient aeration.
Why choose the Hailea ACO-9820 Air Pump?
High-output aeration for DWC, RDWC and nutrient reservoirs
The ACO-9820 is designed for systems where several aeration points need to operate from one powerful central air pump. Its 60L/min output makes it particularly useful for larger DWC and recirculating DWC installations, commercial propagation systems and sizeable nutrient reservoirs.
The supplied 10-way manifold allows the total pump output to be divided between multiple airline runs. Individual lines can then feed separate air stones positioned in DWC pots or at different points around a reservoir.
Airflow is shared between the connected outlets rather than 60L/min being delivered through every outlet. The actual airflow reaching each air stone will also depend on factors such as airline length, water depth and the resistance created by the diffuser.
How to use the Hailea ACO-9820
Position the ACO-9820 on a firm, stable surface above the water level of the reservoir. Connect the supplied manifold to the main pump outlet, then connect the required lengths of compatible airline to the manifold.
Attach suitable air stones or diffusers to the opposite ends of the airline and position them in the nutrient solution. Keeping airline runs reasonably direct and free from kinks helps minimise unnecessary resistance and maintain good airflow.
The 60L/min rating is the pump's total maximum airflow. When using the 10-way manifold, this air supply is distributed between the outlets being used. The number and type of air stones, depth of nutrient solution and resistance through the system will determine how that airflow is divided in practice.
Periodically inspect the pump, manifold, airline and air stones. Diffusers that become blocked with deposits can increase resistance and reduce effective airflow, so regular cleaning or replacement helps maintain consistent aeration.

The Hailea ACO-9810 is a high-output diaphragm air pump designed for hydroponic systems that need considerably more aeration than a standard multi-outlet aquarium-style pump. Delivering up to 30 litres of air per minute, equivalent to 1,800 litres per hour, it provides a strong central air supply for larger reservoirs and multi-pot growing systems.
The ACO-9810 is supplied with a 6-way manifold, allowing its main air supply to be divided between several separate airline runs. This makes it particularly useful for DWC and RDWC systems where multiple pots or air stones need to be aerated from a single pump.
Hailea uses a double air chamber, oil-free diaphragm system together with vibration and sound-reducing features. The result is substantial airflow and pressure while maintaining a rated operating noise level below 40dB.
Why choose the Hailea ACO-9810 Air Pump?
High-output aeration for DWC, RDWC and nutrient reservoirs
The ACO-9810 is a strong choice when one central air pump needs to supply several aeration points. The supplied 6-way manifold allows separate airline runs to feed individual DWC pots, air stones or diffusers positioned throughout a larger nutrient reservoir.
Its 30L/min capacity also makes it useful for applications where smaller multi-outlet pumps do not provide enough airflow. Alongside hydroponic nutrient aeration, it can be used for propagation systems and other horticultural setups requiring a dependable continuous air supply.
The 30L/min rating is the maximum total airflow from the pump. When several manifold outlets are used, this airflow is shared between the connected lines rather than each outlet independently producing 30L/min.
How to use the Hailea ACO-9810
Place the pump on a firm, stable surface above the water level of your reservoir. Connect the supplied manifold to the main pump outlet using the connecting hose, then attach compatible airline to the manifold outlets you intend to use.
Connect suitable air stones or diffusers to the opposite ends of the airline and position them in the nutrient solution. Keep airline runs as direct as practical and avoid sharp bends or kinks that could restrict airflow.
Airflow from the pump is divided between the connected manifold outlets. Airline length, water depth and the resistance created by individual air stones will all influence the amount of air reaching each diffuser.
Inspect the manifold, airline and air stones periodically. Mineral deposits and other blockages in an air stone can increase resistance and reduce aeration, so cleaning or replacing restricted diffusers will help maintain consistent performance.
