How to Clean Your AeroGardenTM

 Pump

Why Clean Your Pump
A clean Pump real y does help keep your garden healthy and 

productive. Cleaning removes nutrient residue and/or plant 

roots that can clog your Pump and prevent the flow of water 

and nutrients to your plants. It also reduces Pump noise.

When To Clean Your Pump
We recommend that you clean your AeroGarden Pump after 

every Garden has reached the end of its life. This will ensure 

that nutrients and/or plant roots do not clog the water flow 

in your next Garden. The most convenient time to clean 

the Pump is during the “Prepare for Your Next Garden” 

cleaning steps, which can be found in the back of any Seed/

Plant Kit Guide. 
In some instances, a planted AeroGarden may start to make 

noise. This can be a sign of residue build-up inside the Pump

If this occurs, we recommend cleaning the Pump at the time 

you notice the noise. This will not harm your plants.

A Note About These Instructions
Cleaning an AeroGarden Pump entails disassembling a portion of your AeroGarden, taking apart the Pump, 

cleaning all the Pump Parts, and then putting the Pump back together.   
We realize that not everyone is comfortable diving into the inside of an AeroGarden. If you are wary about 

taking your Pump apart, or get stuck anywhere during the process, please call Customer Service to discuss 

options for replacing your Pump.
