Are you ready to be the hero at the sandbar? Adding the ATMOS will not only revolutionize your family’s boating experience but could make you the most popular boat on the lake.
The ATMOS 12V, by Scanstrut, is a beautifully designed, built-in air station that allows you to inflate your paddle boards, towables and more: simply set the target pressure and let ATMOS do all the hard work.
Designed and engineered to thrive in the harsh marine environment, the IPX6 waterproof unit ensures you are ready to inflate (or deflate) at a moment's notice. The ATMOS has earned a variety of awards including an NMMA Innovation Award and a DAME award, and was recognized as a Top Product by [Boating Industry].
As expected, Boat Outfitters, a division of Teak Isle Mfg., were quick to release cabinets for a variety of boats for an even cleaner look. Boat Outfitters specializes in getting the most out of your on board space and the compartment for the ATMOS provides compact storage for the sun cover, 8-foot hose and the six hose attachments.
Over the years Boat Outfitters and JC TriToon Marine have worked together on some fun boat projects so it didn't come as a surprise when we discovered an ATMOS on a JC TriToon SportToon 26TT HTH Center Console at a recent boat test. It was so well-hidden under a stern bench seat that we nearly missed it.

The sun cover protects the soft touch TPE buttons and LCD display. The buttons feature a non-slip texture that provides a tactile surface, even with wet hands and the bright, wide viewing angle display means you can have a great view from any place on the boat, even on the brightest days. The display also features a helpful Live Voltage readout, so you can easily keep track of your boat's battery health.
For those do-it-yourselfers out there, note there is some flexibility with the installation. The minimum cavity depth required is 4.33 inches, and it can be installed at an angle ranging from plus 10 degrees to negative 30 degrees from vertical. The power cable length is 20 inches long with a wire gauge of 14 AWG, with no end-user serviceable parts.
When inflating a paddle board on a pontoon boat, the most stable location for the pump is usually on the deck or another flat surface. However, this location may not be close enough to the paddle board to allow for easy inflation if the standard 8-foot hose is too short. An optional longer hose that is 12 feet in length can help to bridge this distance, allowing you to move the pump further away.
The ATMOS system retails for around $400 and comes standard with six different adapters, including Boston Valve, C7 Valve, H3/HR Valve, Pinch Valves, and 805 Valve. You have everything you need to inflate and deflate your toys with ease, no matter what type of valve it has.
