Installing a sub-surface aeration system is the perfect way to increase your pond's or lake's water quality and oxygen levels while maintaining its natural appearance. Sub-surface aerators utilize air diffuser modules that sit at the bottom of the pond and are connected by weighted tubing to an air compressor that is on shore. The air compressor pumps much-needed air to the very bottom of the pond to de-stratify the water column and infuse oxygen into the water. The membrane on the diffuser module breaks the air into tiny bubbles, which are released into the pond. As these bubbles rise to the surface, they carry the low-oxygen water up to the surface, where it mixes with the oxygen-rich surface water. The continual mixing causes the water column to de-stratify, and allows harmful gases to be released into the atmosphere.
The Bubble Pro sub-surface aerators also work great as pond de-icers. The general rule of thumb for de-icing with a diffuser: You will achieve a 2 foot wide circular opening for every foot of depth the diffuser is placed at. For example if placed at a depth of 1 foot, the diffuser will provide an opening approximately 2 feet in diameter. If placed at a depth of 5 feet, the air diffuser will achieve a 10 foot circular opening. Of course, this is an very general rule as temperatures will go up and down throughout the winter, and wind chills can play a key role as well. The agitation of the diffuser pushes warm water from the pond bottom to the surface. That warm water coupled with the water movement helps open up an area above the air diffuser.
The Bubble Pro is designed for easy installation. These aerators come with a 2 year warranty on the motor and a five-year warranty on the tubing and diffusers.
