ASSEMBLY STEP 1 Place the Reservoir with the lid and hatch cover where it will be used on a level surface. Line the inside of the Reservoir grommet with a thin coat of the Silicon Grease. Insert Drain Valve into grommet using a twisting motion. note: this opening is the lower of the two STEP 2 Attach the Pump Inlet and the Filter Outlet Assembly to the TNC Pump. Position the filter to the side to avoid splashing the pump with water when cleaning the filter.
ASSEMBLY & HELPFUL GUIDELINES STEP 6 Center the Growing Chambers with the Drain Level Tube inserted into the Drain Overflow Hole and the other end on the SnapStand. The level of the water in the Growing Chambers is controlled by the height of the Drain Level Tube. Keep the Drain Level Tube access covered after adjusting the water level. STEP 7 Cap off the unused end of the Filter Outlet Assembly and the end of one of the manifold for the standard setup.
HELPFUL GUIDELINES PLANTING To prepare a seedling or a plant for transplanting, remove all soil and/or organic material from around the roots. Plants must be sturdy with established roots before transplanting into the AeroFlo. Choose seedlings because it’s more difficult to successfully transplant older plants. If your plant has been growing in soil or peat moss, gently remove the plant from its pot and carefully rinse as much soil as possible from the roots before transplanting.
TROUBLE SHOOTING If white salt deposits form on the clay pebbles: 1. Try using a milder nutrient solution and topping off with plain water only. 2. Occasionally drain your system, refill with plain water and run the pump overnight. After the overnight rinse, empty reservoir and refill with fresh nutrient. If plants are not growing well and you suspect “hard” water: 1. Use FloraMicro Hardwater in place of FloraMicro. 2. Try distilled or purified water.
