Adding a sub-surface aeration system is a great way to increase water quality and oxygen levels while maintaining the natural appearance of your pond. This style of aerator has one diffuser module that sits at the bottom of the pond, connected by weighted tubing, which is in turn connected to an air compressor on shore.
The compressor pumps much-needed air to the bottom of your pond, ensuring adequate oxygen levels during hot summer months. Air is pumped from the compressor through the weighted airline to the diffusers at the pond bottom. When the air reaches the diffuser, several thousand small air bubbles are created. These bubbles rise to the surface and produce an upward current. Water at the pond bottom is lifted to the surface where oxygen is replenished by the atmosphere.
The Bubble Pro Mini comes complete with one diffuser; one length of 100-foot by 3/8-inch Quick Sink weighted tubing; a 1/4-hp, rocking piston compressor; an air outlet with pressure relief valve; and all fittings and clamps required. Designed for easy installation, the Bubble Pro Mini comes with a two-year warranty.
Works great as a pond de-icer, too!
