Hailea Air Pump Kits

Complete Oxygenation Kits for Hydroponic Systems

Want to keep your roots supplied with plenty of oxygen?

These Hailea Air Pump Kits give you everything you need to aerate reservoirs, hydroponic systems and individual plant containers, with the pump, airstones, airline tubing and check valves all matched together in one kit.

Good oxygen levels are essential in hydroponics. When roots sit in nutrient solution, they need constant aeration to stay healthy, active and able to take up water and nutrients properly. Without enough dissolved oxygen, root zones can quickly become sluggish, stressed and harder to manage.

Each kit is built around a reliable Hailea ACO adjustable air pump, a popular choice for growers who want strong air output, low power consumption and simple control. The adjustable flow control makes it easy to fine-tune the airflow to suit your system, reservoir size and plant stage.

Whether you’re running a small single-pot system, a larger DWC setup, IWS-style deep water culture pots or a nutrient reservoir that needs extra movement, there’s a kit size to suit your setup.

Please note: the colour of the Hailea ACO-9610 may vary, but the specification and performance remain the same.

Key Benefits

• Complete air pump kit; includes the pump, airstones, airline tubing and check valves needed to get set up;
• Improves oxygen levels; helps aerate nutrient solution and support healthier root zones;
• Ideal for hydroponics; suitable for reservoirs, DWC systems, deep water culture pots and nutrient tanks;
• Multiple kit sizes; choose from 1, 2, 4, 6 or 8 airstone options to match your setup;
• Adjustable airflow; fine-tune output using the control on the pump;
• Reliable Hailea pump; built around Hailea ACO adjustable air pumps;
• Helps support root health; better oxygenation encourages active roots and stronger nutrient uptake;
• No guesswork; the pump, tubing, stones and valves are already matched together;
• Easy to set up; simple kit for beginners and experienced hydro growers.

Why You Need It

Roots need oxygen as well as water and nutrients. In hydroponic systems, that oxygen has to be supplied through proper aeration. A good air pump and airstone setup helps keep nutrient solution moving, improves oxygen availability and supports a healthier root environment.

The Hailea Air Pump Kit makes that simple. Instead of buying a pump, airstones, tubing and check valves separately, you get a complete matched kit ready to install.

It’s especially useful for DWC and reservoir-based systems where roots are constantly exposed to nutrient solution. Adding air movement helps keep the solution active and gives roots the oxygen they need to perform properly.

Perfect for DWC, Reservoirs & Hydroponic Systems

These kits are ideal for growers using deep water culture, IWS DWC-style systems, standalone hydro pots, nutrient reservoirs and other setups where oxygenating the solution is important.

Use smaller kits for single buckets, propagation systems or compact reservoirs. Use larger kits when you need to feed air into multiple containers or spread oxygen more evenly across a bigger system.

If you’re running hydro, an air pump kit is one of those simple upgrades that helps keep the root zone more active and the system more stable.

What Each Part Does

• Hailea ACO air pump; pushes air through the airline tubing and into the airstones, helping oxygenate your nutrient solution;
• Flat airstones; sit under the surface of the nutrient solution and break airflow into bubbles for better aeration;
• PVC airline tubing; carries air from the pump to each airstone;
• Check valves; act as one-way valves to help prevent water siphoning back towards the pump;
• Adjustable airflow control; allows you to increase or reduce air output to suit your reservoir or system.

How to Set Up the Hailea Air Pump Kit

1. Place the air pump on a flat, stable surface close to your reservoir or system.
2. Where possible, position the pump above the water level to reduce the risk of back siphoning.
3. Connect the airline tubing to the pump outlet or outlets, pushing it firmly over the ridged nozzles.
4. If the airline is tight, soften the end in warm water to make fitting easier.
5. Fit the airstones to the other end of the airline tubing.
6. Place the airstones into your reservoir, DWC bucket or system container.
7. Fit the supplied check valves into the airline tubing, making sure they face the correct direction for airflow.
8. Keep airline runs as short and tidy as possible to help maintain pressure.
9. Plug in the pump and use the airflow control to set the output you need.
10. Check that each airstone is bubbling evenly and adjust positioning where needed.

Top Tip

Always use the supplied check valves and keep the pump above the water line wherever possible. This helps reduce the risk of nutrient solution travelling back through the airline and into the pump if the power is switched off.
