Pond Aeration Systems
The amount of surface area an aeration system will effectively cover is greatly dependent on two factors - DEPTH and SHAPE.

The diagram below shows how much suface area is effectively aerated at various depths:

Example:
Our PA34 pond aerator would aerate only 1/8 of an acre if operated in 4' deep water, while aerating up to 1 1/2 acres if operating in 16' - 20' of water. Ponds that are irregular or odd shaped will also reduce size of aeration area — call our technical assistance department for additional help.

The deeper an air diffuser is located, the more boiling action it will create and a larger area will be aerated.

Aeration Kits for 1/4 Acre or Smaller Ponds
1/20 HP Diaphragm Air Compressor Kit
This continuous duty pump is ideal for aeration of smaller, shallower ponds. Will operate to a depth of 12', motor draws 1.5 amps and pumps .7 CFM of air.
