Important Safety Information
1.
The AEROTOWER is an Aeroponic growing system. Do not stand on the AEROTOWER and take care to keep
children from playing on the AEROTOWER.
2.
Follow the safety instructions. Do not attempt to plug or unplug the pump in rainy or damp conditions.
3.
When draining the AEROTOWER, do not allow the drainpipe to drain over an electrical outlet or extension
cord. Do not overfill the AEROTOWER, which would allow water to run out of the electrical cord opening in the
reservoir.
4.
Do not place the AEROTOWER where there is the potential for high winds, such as high-rise balconies.
5.
Wear rubber gloves when mixing pH up or pH Down, FRUTEE Grow, Micro or Bloom, in order to protect your
hands.
6.
Use a large stirring paddle or spoon to mix the nutrients and pH adjusting chemicals in the reservoir. DO NOT
USE YOUR HANDS. The solution may be alkaline or acidic and may cause skin irritation.
7.
Read and follow all safety instructions on the pH Down and Nutrients Labels / user guide.

Where to locate your AEROTOWER
Extremely important for a productive AEROTOWER
1.
Full sun or high light level for a minimum of 5-6 hours is a requirement, if you desire highly productive food
crops. If you live in a location with intense summer heat, it can be helpful to have some shade, starting mid-
afternoon into the evening. Choose a location for your AEROTOWER that meets these requirements.
Vegetable crops can grow at lower light levels; however, they are less productive as the percentage of shade
increases. Many flowers and ornamental crops do fine under shade all day. Read seed labels to determine
proper light levels.
2.
Always Use clean and Low TDS (Less than 50 ppm ) water.
3.
An electrical outlet nearby is preferred over a long extension cord. ALWAYS select a waterproof connection
when using outdoor extension cords.
4.
Place an AEROTOWER on dolly, doormat, or similar product under the reservoir if you are placing the
AEROTOWER on a deck or patio. This will reduce the heat transferred into the reservoir from the deck or patio
during hot weather.
5.
Always select a site for the AEROTOWER that is level.
NOTE: Your AEROTOWER
MUST be level to work properly.

How to Assemble It
1.
For the AEROTOWER to operate properly, make sure the nutrient reservoir is level.
2.
Assemble Aerotower as per Video.
3.
CAUTION:
DO NOT plug the pump in until you have filled the reservoir with the nutrient solution and water.
4.
To avoid electrical shock, form a loop with the cord on the outside of the reservoir near the outlet, preventing
water from flowing down the cord and reaching the outlet.
5.
Place the pump towards the side of the reservoir.
6.
NOTE: If the net pot is not pushed all the way in, the new seedling will not get watered.
7.
Once your reservoir is filled with Nutrient and cold water, the access port lid and shower cap lid can both be
firmly pushed into place.
