Air supply

9 blade blower

The air suply for my original Fish House was a 125w 9 vein blower. This was changed for a more economical diaphragm pump.

Diaphram pump

After I refurbished the Fish House in 2004 I changed the air suply from the 9 vein blower to a Hi-Blow twin diaphragm pump. This produces slightly more preasure and volume and at 45w it is fare more economical to run.
