Having a high-quality and properly sized aeration system is essential for a balanced aquatic ecosystem. Natural occurrences or even simply, stormwater can throw off your ecosystem and add excessive nutrients to your water. By having a fountain aerator in place, you’ll be able to mitigate the damage and reduce water quality issues.
Reducing Excessive Algae Growth
Your pond or lake environment will be greatly improved upon adding a fountain aerators. Aerators help remove phosphorus from the water, thus greatly reducing the growth of algae. Your system may also move algae spores to deeper parts of your lake or pond, providing less sunlight and time for the algae to spread.
Less Bottom Sediment
Organic matter decomposes much more slowly under low oxygen conditions, and this leads to a buildup of bottom sediment in your waterbody. Proper aeration will help to reduce the overall accumulation of organic sediment on the bottom of your lake or pond, potentially prolonging or preventing the need for future dredging.
Better Environment for Your Ecosystem
Having an aerator in your pond or lake helps to promote an oxygen-rich aquatic environment which offers a healthier habitat for fish and aquatic life. The continuous circulation of water provided by an aerator also helps to reduce mosquito activity.
