Fountains
and Aerators are used to keep a consistent level of oxygen throughout your lake
or pond. These products significantly increase oxygen levels allowing
beneficial bacteria to function. The purpose of the beneficial bacteria is to
consume excess nutrients which cause algae.
Fountains
and Aerators also destratify your waterway by turning over the entire water
column and cooling your water. A stagnant body of water is hot on the surface
and forms layers with the coolest temperatures on the bottom. During the hot
summer months, algae quickly grow in stratified bodies of water.

with dissolved oxygen problems, we have an aerator or fountain that will meet
your needs! Fountains are not only decorative,they also increase water

growth.
