A Note Before You Order

This unit is available in 115 volt or 230 volt configurations. The 115 volt version plugs directly into a standard outdoor outlet. The 230 volt version requires a dedicated 230 volt circuit, and if you do not already have one nearby, you will want to add the deluxe outdoor breaker panel option below. Confirm what power is available at your pond before selecting a voltage, and give us a call if you are not sure which setup fits your site.

Frequently Asked Questions

Question	Answer
How is this different from a display fountain?	This unit is built for oxygen levels, not a spray pattern. It keeps a natural water surface while still moving air through your pond
Can it be used for deicing in the winter?	Yes, it is commonly used to keep open water underneath boat lifts through the winter months
Which model do I need, the 275 or the 412?	The 275 Series (1/2 HP) suits smaller ponds, while the 412 Series (3/4 HP) is built for larger ponds and small lakes that need more oxygen turnover
Do I need an electrician to install this?	The 115 volt version plugs into a standard outdoor outlet. The 230 volt version needs a dedicated circuit, so we recommend an electrician for that setup, especially if you are also adding the breaker panel
What does the Bottom Draw Tube actually do?	It lets the unit pull water from as deep as 10 feet, turning it into a bottom aerator instead of just a surface unit
How long of a power cable can I get?	Cable lengths run from 50 feet up to 250 feet, so you can place the unit well away from your power source if needed
What size pond is this rated for?	Sizing depends on pond depth, shape, and how much oxygen turnover you need, not just surface acreage. Reach out and our team will help you match the right model to your water
Can I add lighting after I purchase?	Yes, the White LED and Remote Control Color Changing LED options can be added at the time of order or afterward
