Quick Facts
A Note Before You Order
Select the correct motor voltage for your installation. For proper operation of a 115V motor, the distance from the main breaker to the fountain or aerator must not exceed 100 feet. If the distance is greater than 100 feet, select a 230V motor. A GFCI is required, and power must always be disconnected when swimmers are present.
Scott Aerator Gusher Fountain For Medium, Residential Ponds
The Gusher Fountain creates a tall, dense column of water in a cascading pattern designed to remain visible in windy conditions. The medium residential models are available with ¾ HP, 1 HP, and 1½ HP motors, producing spray heights from 18 to 30 feet depending on the selected configuration.
The fountain's rapid water movement helps circulate and oxygenate the pond while supporting water clarity and a healthy aquatic environment. Its stainless steel, oil-free submersible motor is designed for continuous operation with no oil changes, no control box, and no routine maintenance required. Optional light kits can also be added to extend the fountain display into the evening.
