Pond aeration is an essential part of a successful pond.

Pond Oxygenator pumps are able to run numerous air stones at any one time, creating a healthy oxygen rich pond that will benefit your fish and biological filter bacteria. Your Pond Oxygenator pump is both cost effective to run, as it is low wattage design, and can be maintained with excellent value maintenance parts. Fish and other pond life require oxygen rich water in order to remain healthy, filter bacteria -essential to the breakdown of highly toxic ammonia and nitrate – also require oxygen to flourish and keep the pond free from the build-up of toxic waste. Use of an air pump will dramatically increase the level of oxygen in the pond and reduce carbon dioxide levels, thus aiding in preventing the pond from stagnating by injecting air into the water.

Location

The pump has been designed to be weather-proof, so that it is able to be instaled in most locations around the garden, or in a shed or garage, close to your chosen power supply.

The air pump should be located on a firm surface which will not vibrate and act as a sounding board, a concrete floor or paving slab would be idea

Ensure that the air pump is instaled above the pond water level to avoid back siphoning of pond water into the air pump in the event of a mains power failure. Alternatively, if the air pump can only be instaled below the pond level instal Aqua Air Check Valves into each piece of airline.

Pond aeration is especially important during:

  • Warm weather when the water holds less dissolved oxygen
  • At night when plants stop producing oxygen and begin to use it up
  • Icy weather to keep an area ice-free, preventing the build-up of toxic gases
  • When using treatments as the treatments may deplete oxygen levels in the water
