Air-O-Lator - Aquarian Professional Surface Aerator
From Surface Aerators
Surface aerators are designed to ensure quality water management for ponds, lakes and lagoons. When these devices are properly installed and maintained, aerators can ensure proper aeration thereby keeping water fresh, vibrant and healthy. Good water management means protecting water so that people, as well as the environment, do not suffer. Today’s modern surface aerators are energy-efficient, highly effective and affordable. Best of all, surface aerators can be installed with minimal disruption and in a short amount of time. If you are unsure of how much aeration you need, as a general rule, approximately one-horsepower per surface area is sufficient, depending on the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) for a lake or pond.
How it Works
Pumpage, Aeration and Mix: The high-velocity Aquarian propeller pumps an immense column of water through the device, creating constant aeration and re-aeration in a circular manner. A continuous turnover prevents stratification to depths of up to 12 feet.
Air-O-Lator equipment is manufactured either to UL, CSA, or NEMA standards. All 1/2 horsepower units are designed to plug into an outlet; conduit wiring is permitted.
Ice Melting: During the winter months, keep water areas open around docks and piers or for ducks, waterfowl, fish, and livestock with the Sling Rope De-Icing Kit. The kit pulls warm water up to the surface creating an open circular area on lakes or ponds at a rate of eight feet diameter per foot of propeller depth.
Suggested Mooring: Use approximately three feet of mooring rope per foot of water depth to allow for water level fluctuation. Tying unit to the shore is also acceptable if visible mooring ropes are not objectionable.
