I think it works even with lower pressure, you just have to wait more fore the bubbles to come out.

Help please, no CO2 from UP inline atomizer

Indeed the UP atomiser needs 1.8 and above to run properly!

My inline (not UP but exactly the same design) runs at 40psi. Anything lower and I can't get my BPS over 4. After the solenoid clicks on the BPS in the bubble counter is rapid, then it levels out at 6-8 bps when the CO2 starts diffusing about 3 minutes later.
I clean using a super mild bleach solution, like 1ml to a gallon or thereabouts.... I usually go by the odor. If it's too strong, you'll know it. With a pipe cleaner. I do this once a month.
I noticed that if you let it run for a week or two, then let it dry completely out, then reuse it in that condition without cleaning, the bubbles are big (not micro). A quick clean and soak sorts it out though.
