I install piping to science labs in universities as a commercial plumber. An engineered venturi involves say a 3/4" tee,then 4-5" further you add a 3/4" 90°. If the line continues then you just add another 3/4" tee the same distance apart. You pipe both lines going to the same location but in the beginning of both lines you install 3/4" X 1/2" tees. You glue in a piece of 1/2" pipe to join both lines together in the beginning section. This is a scientifically engineered venturi. We usually use schedule 80 pvc or sometimes schedule 80 cpvc. Interesting vid.

@SaludaGradeFarm Жыл бұрын
Good question, the only thing I can tell you is that I have perfect aeration using this system which is a dissolved oxygen level of 8. I have some systems that are 800 gallons and I run a 40 watt 620 gallon per hour pump with one 3/4” venturi. I have perfect aeration with the benefit of circulation, and it’s really cheap and virtually maintenance free. If you are running a small reservoir get an air stone. If you have a larger system, airstones get really expensive and are more of a hassle. So it really depends!
@davidstick92078 ай бұрын
Aeration is not about gas transfer from the bubbles...no matter how small they are. There simply is not enough time for gaseous transfer. Aeration occurs at the surface...and to get that...all you need is agitation. "Small bubbles" agitate the surface more effectively. But if the tank is deep...a small pore airstone has too much pressure on it to work effectively. Hope that helps

How to skip right over the PUMP that actually causes the whole thing to work
@SaludaGradeFarm Жыл бұрын
If you want to make it off grid look into the kratky method, other than that you need a pump of some kind, most hydroponic growers have a pump, either a Venturi setup like this, or an air pump kind of like a fish pump.

It depends on your setup but I run most of mine about 6-8”.

What water pump do you use?
@SaludaGradeFarm6 ай бұрын
Use a submersible pump that has at least 1 gph for every gallon of water in your system. www.amazon.com/Alpine-PAL5200-Pump-Black-Blue/dp/B001UFOD2U/ref=mp_s_a_1_15?crid=2Z8LR682LP8F1&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.7wTahFnWolwPp828KRfBhKapvK7jMukv-wug-BOqNo0sDoJMbXZAimab_zOakO5oihJcAbmhdMFEln_EKqV1yo1DEP7dxQg66irH5HmjZBpZyqo1RFXfk5VYti1uWsBjNZdcHSC2YpJPyV5oiBsvfgDdGSO4N5I4EYlX1fMbkJsNNwtCCqqXekIaVb5GXUMq4f-S0jLbwMd_tR1GTigm9Q.fMXVOCjmle5sDKL4L0QvbLlTI9b5ra8y2QFSC-HoA20&dib_tag=se&keywords=5000+gph+submersible+pond+pump&qid=1713741068&sprefix=5000+gph+%2Caps%2C99&sr=8-15 This is for a 5000 gallon system.
