Tunze 9001 not foaming properly
Hey Roger,
Quick question. I've had the 9001 set up for almost 1.5 years now with no issues. I've had it apart a couple of times for cleaning. Every so often, it will stop foaming. Jiggling the airline fixes it. Sometimes. I've taken it apart during these episodes to make sure the airline was pushed in all the way and it is. Do you have any other ideas on what I might check? I don't really see what else could be causing it. Thanks.

My best guesses would be either:
The impeller cover the air hose attaches to is not attached to the motor and is loose and free to move. The air hose has some salt creep at some point and moving the hose loosens the clog.
