FAQs

What size hose does this Eheim Outlet Pipe fit?

This outlet pipe is designed for hoses with a 16/22 mm diameter.

Can this outlet pipe be used with filters from other brands?

While it may physically connect, it is specifically designed and optimized for Eheim filters with 16/22 mm hoses. Compatibility with other brands is not guaranteed.

How does the broad jet discharge benefit my aquarium?

The broad jet discharge creates significant surface movement, which enhances gas exchange, increasing the dissolved oxygen levels in your aquarium water.

How often should I clean the outlet pipe?

It is recommended to check and clean the outlet pipe monthly, or more frequently if you notice a decrease in water flow or visible algae buildup.

What is the purpose of the bent shape?

The bent shape allows the outlet pipe to be conveniently hung on the aquarium's edge or fixed at an optimal angle above the water surface using a suction cup.

Does this product come with suction cups?

Yes, the angled design allows it to be hung on the aquarium ledge or fixed at the ideal angle with a suction cup above the water surface.

Troubleshooting

Weak water flow from the outlet pipe

Check the hose for kinks or blockages. Ensure the filter media inside the Eheim filter is clean and not clogged. Verify that the outlet pipe itself is not obstructed.

Outlet pipe not staying in desired position

Ensure the suction cup is clean and adhering properly to the aquarium glass. If the suction cup is old or damaged, replace it. Adjust the angle of the pipe for a more stable fit.

Excessive splashing or noise

Adjust the angle of the outlet pipe to reduce the height from which the water falls. Submerging the end of the pipe slightly deeper can also reduce noise and splashing.
