• 

Check filter monthly. 

• 

Clean or replace intake filter when filter minder shows a 

red band. 

• 

Reset by pushing the small button on the minder top.

• 

Failure to maintain clean air filter will lead to excessive 

heat and premature failure of the compressor.

•

TROUBLESHOOTING

“Compressor and fan are not running.”

• 

Ensure the power cord is connected. Check if the user supplied GFCI circuit is tripped. Reset as 

necessary

“The fan is running but the compressor is not”

• 

Inspect the compressor and capacitor wiring and connections.

“The compressor and fan are running, but there are no bubbles coming out of any diffusers”

• 

Check for leaks in line connections and at the compressor. Check connections for tightness.

“The compressor and fan are running. There are bubbles coming out of some diffusers, but not all of them.”

• 

The valves in the cabinet may need to be balanced. There may be a clogged diffuser that needs to be 

cleared. The compressor may be due for a rebuild.

“The compressor stops and restarts” 

• 

Ensure the fan is working properly. Capacitor may need replacement.

Please contact Kasco or your distributor if any problems persist.

In climates where temperatures fall below freezing, Kasco recommends insulating the air lines from the 

compressor cabinet to a minimum of 3 feet into the water (use low water level for reference). Prevent ice 

buildup in the lines by using closed cell polyurethane foam to insulate. Ice buildup can block the flow of air 
to your diffuser and cause damage to your compressor.
