What is the difference between Weighted and non-weighted airlines?
Depending on where you’re using the airline, you’ll want to choose between a weighted or non-weighted option. If you’re running an airline above ground, a non-weighted airline should do the trick. However, if you’re running an airline from the shoreline to your Airstone or rubber membrane, a weighted airline is a must to keep it under the water. Investing in a weighted airline will save you the hassle of getting a non-weighted one to work underwater.
Another important tip is to bury your airline when running it from your aeration system to the water’s edge. This will protect it from accident, landscaper equipment, or animal cuts. It’s a headache to deal with a damaged airline, so take precautions and bury it. Don’t worry about burying it too deeply – 4-6 inches is enough. If you’re worried about extra vulnerability, you can even encase it in PVC before burying it.
