Review: Good pairing for laser cutter air assist - I got this to use in conjunction with my K40 laser cutter as the air driver for an air assist nozzle. It puts out a lot of air - more than enough to keep the nozzle clear and to keep things from flaming up on the bed. Things I like: - The air splitter it comes with is metal and the valves work reasonably well, so you can change the air output easily without worrying about breaking things - Puts out a lot of air - Seems ok so far in continuous operation for multiple hours Things to be aware of: - If you turn it on without having the air hose connected, it's really loud. With the air hose connected it's still fairly loud and I wouldn't recommend it for indoor use in a place where noise might be an issue. I'm using it in a garage so it's not a problem at all. Be sure to place it properly on its rubber feet as well or else it will vibrate whatever it's on quite a lot. - As others have noted, it does get hot during operation, so be sure you have some ventilation for it. Review: Fully pleased after finding trick to make it much quieter - tl; dr: pleased with pump, came with metal 6-valve air tap, only 15 watts when connected to air stones, *much* quieter with long hose connected to air *inlet* to move sound away from pump. We just set up a small garden pond and after a week or so green moss started forming on the rocks and the water got cloudy. Aeration was a common cure so we ordered this pump, some tubing, and air stones. I had never used an air pump or done a pond, and was concerned this would be noisy, but didn't want to get a smaller type of pump because I wanted a lot of aeration and didn't want to do regular diaphragm replacement as the smaller ones require. Plugging it in for the first time inside, with nothing connected, my heart sunk as it was very loud. It also measured around 25 watts on my Kill-A-Watt meter, even though it's advertised as only 18 watts. It turns out that this is the wrong way to evaluate it. With hoses and air stones connected it only uses 15 watts, and is quieter. I placed it outside next to the pond and it filled it with bubbles, and caused lots of circulation as well. It came with a nice metal 6-valve tap, and I was only using three of them (two air stones, and one bare air tube with its valve turned down). The pump was still somewhat noisy though. I noticed the air inlet and read about the noise coming from that, so I connected it to an old garden hose (no water in it) so that it drew air from the end of the hose that was far away, and the pump became almost silent! I was pleased that this last nagging issue had been solved, and my concern over the noise put to rest. Unfortunately it didn't make any change in our pond's green moss growth situation, but definitely not because the pump has any shortcomings. This is one reason I got a powerful pump, so that if the moss didn't reduce, I would know for sure that it wasn't due to a lack of aeration. We only ran this for a few weeks (24 hours a day in Texas summer) so I can't say much about its long-term reliability. Zero problems during our use of it. ## Features - Widely used to provide oxygen in aquariums, fish farms and hydroponic systems - Includes chrome air manifold with 6 adjustable flow outlet valves - Cylinders and pistons are made of premium materials, making the pump strong and durable - Comes with two output nozzles fittings 1/4” and 3/8” - This pump is 120 volt and is ETL listed ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B002JLJC0W | | Best Sellers Rank | #74,437 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) #168 in Aquarium Air Pumps | | Brand | EcoPlus | | Brand Name | EcoPlus | | Color | Silver | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 2,538 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00870883005627 | | Included Components | Air pump, tubing, 6 valve manifold, 1/4” and 3/8” nozzles | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 6.8"L x 5.9"W x 5.7"H | | Item Type Name | For Aquarium, Fish Tank, Fountain, Pond & Hydroponics | | Item Weight | 2.45 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Hawthorne Hydroponics, LLC | | Material | Aluminum | | Material Type | Aluminum | | Maximum Pressure | 290 Pound per Square Inch | | Operation Mode | Automatic | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Product Dimensions | 6.8"L x 5.9"W x 5.7"H | | UPC | 870883005627 | | Warranty Description | 1 year manufacturer's | ## Product Details - **Brand:** EcoPlus - **Color:** Silver - **Item Weight:** 2.45 Pounds - **Material:** Aluminum - **Product Dimensions:** 6.8"L x 5.9"W x 5.7"H ## Images ![ECOair 1 Commercial Grade Air Pump 793 GPH - 18 Watt Single Outlet with 6 Valve Manifold - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61bofwHKxgL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is this pump repairable? Where can parts be purchased?** A: All you need is thin flat rubber or nitrile sheet. Take the old diaphrams apart and make new with the rubber sheet. I've only had one of these pumps that I couldn't get to work, they are solid and reliable. I bet I run mine for a year on average before I start to notice the airflow drop some, then I know it's time to clean it out real good and replace the rubber diaphrams. You can find several nice vids that show it barney style on Youtube. I hope that helps! **Q: What is the size of the hose fitting, and to what depth is there usable air flow? Can it pressure a stone at 4 feet?** A: The threaded connection is very small, smaller than 1/8" MIP (could be metric), so I could not find a fitting at my hardware store. To have the best airflow, I connected a 5/16 ID hose to the fitting (this fit better than 1/4"), and then put a 1/2" ID hose on top of that so most of the length of the tube was 1/2", so there was very little pressure drop. I did the same thing on the manifold side. In my opinion, 1/4" is too small, and it causes too much back pressure. **Q: Is this 110 volt** A: Yes, the electrical power for this pump is 110 V. **Q: Has anybody figured out how to stop pump from over heating** A: It run's warm to hot that is why it shape is of a heat sync , I keep a small fan on mine and it has been running almost 1 1/2 years non-stop,they are pretty durable.. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good pairing for laser cutter air assist *by R***E on July 7, 2016* I got this to use in conjunction with my K40 laser cutter as the air driver for an air assist nozzle.

I realize that when it conked on me we were having severely hot weather. It's been running just fine now and puts out a good amount of air, I haven't check the liter flow lately but it seems to be working fine. The key to this pump is to shut it down on extremely hot days and it will probably work fine for years. It's a good buy for the money. I was all set to write a rave review for this air pump! It came with a very nice heavy duty manifold (which was a pleasant surprise) and appears to be well made...and the price is very reasonable. When I first plugged it in, I was blown away at the amount of air it produced and when I put the liter flow gauge to it...I was even more impressed! I mounted it to a nice piece of wood then found the ideal place to keep it near my pond, I plugged in 2- 5" stones and all was great! Then about an hour later, I was walking by the pond and I noticed one of the stones wasn't producing any air and the other was very slow. So I reached down to pick up the pump and it was hot enough to burn my hand. I unplugged and took it in the house and let it cool down. After about 30 minutes I plugged it back in and ran the flow meter and it was running about 19 LPM (about half of what I had before) I checked the intake to make sure nothing had gotten in there but it was clean. I have it running in my pond again at the moment but I'm sending this thing back. If it conks after only an hour it will leave me high and dry somewhere down the road. Apparently this type pump has a poor track record of overheating so...I'm going to have to find something different. I loved this pump...for about an hour...so sad! ## Frequently Bought Together - EcoPlus ECOair 1 Commercial Grade Air Pump 793 GPH - 18 Watt Single Outlet with 6 Valve Manifold - Compost Tea Aerator - The BubbleSnake : 5 Gallon Bucket Aerator - Compost Tea Brew Bag : Made to Last in The USA (5 Gallon Bucket Sized (9"x14")) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/2134105-ecoair-1-commercial-grade-air-pump-793-gph-18-watt](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/2134105-ecoair-1-commercial-grade-air-pump-793-gph-18-watt) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
