Will this blow my sand in a 20G long. Right now I have a power head that is creating my sand to get blown into a mountain and is creating spots at the bottom of the tank to not have sand there. Not sure if I should try this one or go with the 240.

I don't think it will move your sand unless you point it right down at it it should be fine just pointing out but if you are worried about it go with the smaller one

I think xl has more uses per cartridge. I've used xl instead of the regular 240 ever since I had to buy new in for my machine

I would go with the 300 for that application. I have the 300 for my 60gal and it works great.

Sorry but you'll need a 36 gallon tank with a sufficient compressor to boot to run an air sander like this. The small Porter Cable compressor is good for about 10-15 seconds the first time you pull trigger and decreases to almost nothing within a minute or two. Don't fell bad I made the same assumption and mistake

Never tried it, but as long as the connection point is the same as a 20# tank, it should work fine. Your 'burn' time would obviously be shorter.

Not without another adapter. They prob make a 240 version maybe check amazon.UK. you also may be able to workaround with DC adapter. It comes with this and I use it with a litheon backup battery from anker available from amazon. With the backup battery I get the full 20watt RMS. This thing has big sound and nice full bass for its size. Thanks TJ

If you will put the thicker sock like filter inside the mesh filter the sand will not penetrate . I do that and it will pick up the smallest of debris , this is my second year using the blaster, I really like it for small pools . Hope this helps . Happy blasting

This is very strong on our 125. We run it on the lowest setting or it is too much flow. We run a mixed tank. I would suggest the lower powered one as this is one high-powered wave maker. Love the 10 minute suspend for feeding and it is very quiet. Just afraid it would be too much for a 75.

This is just a vacuum head, so it all depends on your pump's power. But sand shouldn't be an issue even for a weak pump. It will clog your filter quickly though.

It is sort of like a dust buster mounted on a stick. I have not tried it with sand but to be safe you might want something with a more powerful motor.

How you plan to use it would make the difference, it is designed to be used on boat bilges. in almost all circumstances boat bilge blowers are loud, due to size and volume of air delivery requirements. This one is substantially quieter, smoother than the Attwood and other cheap models. Also has a thicker shell construction making it possible to utilize an "insulated" flex tube both too, and from, with at least one slow bend to dampen actual motor noise. To answer he "Q", DB wise I have Two in my bilge (07 Sea Ray, twin 5.0 liter MPI V-8's and 5.0 KW Kohler generator) at a real calm Idle entering or leaving the slip I can easily hear the blowers over the engines and genny. By them selves they put out around 68 DB at the helm, hatch closed venting out both sides at rear approx. 8 ft away. In the engine room, about 72DB +/-, Anything over an absolute idle, they cannot be heard over engines, even with the engine room hatch open. This depends on which direction the intake hose is pointed in relation to the meter/mic. Also note the more and tighter the bends to reduce noise the less efficient the air flow Hope this helps.

Not sure about the size since I haven't used it since November. Just can't remember how big tank is. Would use the pre-mix the first time and then mix my own, otherwise it becomes expensive. Just be careful about getting the oil/gas mix pretty accurate. The blower seems sensitive to that, but I've been quite happy with it. Also, if you do flood the engine, wait a while before starting it again. Good luck.

Generac lists this answer on their website as a spec sheet. As the generator can run on either 20 or 30 lb tanks I'll provide both answers. Luckily I don't have first hand data for this question.20 lbs = 4.75 hrs @ half load30 lbs = 7 hrs @ half loadYou can follow this link and select "Spec Sheet" and get the answer direct from them along with other data.http://www.generac.com/Portables/LPSeries/LP5500/

Christian, This heater is the very best we've owned, but it will not operate on a 20lb. portable tank in my opinion. We had tried a 40lb. tank from the local propane dealer many years ago with a different heater and it worked, but not well.....took an entire day to heat the pool and used so much propane [because of the lower pressure of a portable] that it was totally consumed in two days' time. We have a large [permanent] 80lb. unit now like the ones that people use for small home heaters and propane cooking stoves.....one fill lasts almost all Season and the heater runs like a champ.

I have a 125g and the 1400-1500 was too powerful. I exchanged it for the 1050 and it works great. The 1400 was blowing my fish and sand everywhere. I would say the 550 would be plenty.

yes. you can use a power head. a very good deal on power heads is to go to wal-mart and buy there. whisper brand. 130 gph. you should know this- make shure your gravel is uniform in size. if the gravel gets under the plate, it will get sucked into the power heads intake.
