Keep your Vertex ½hp or ¾hp aeration compressor running at peak efficiency with this maintenance rebuild kit. Over time, piston cups and related internal components wear out, causing reduced air flow and less effective aeration—this kit enables you to restore full performance without replacing the entire compressor.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Fits Vertex ½hp & ¾hp compressors.
Specifically designed for Vertex models in continuous use—ensures optimal compatibility. -
Everything you need.
The kit includes all necessary components (piston cups, seals, gaskets, etc.) to restore your compressor’s performance. -
Improves aeration flow and extends compressor lifespan.
As piston cups wear (typically 2 years depending on environment), you’ll notice decreased air output—even with a clean air filter. Replacing these parts restores high-flow aeration. -
Cost-effective maintenance solution.
Rather than replacing the entire compressor unit, this rebuild kit prolongs equipment life—saving money and reducing downtime.
Technical Specifications & Use
-
Application: Vertex ½hp & ¾hp compressor models used in aeration systems
-
Typical lifespan of original piston cups: 2 years.
- Simple to install with standard tools—replacement can be done in-house, minimising service delays.
Don’t wait until your compressor fails or the pond suffers from low oxygen levels. If you’re noticing reduced surface boiling, weaker air lift in your diffusers, or increased noise from your compressor, those are signs your piston cups or internal seals may be worn. Installing this maintenance kit restores airflow, improves oxygenation and supports the overall health of your pond ecosystem.
