Lake Fountain Installation Maintenance and Repair

The addition of a water feature to a waterway in a residential or commercial property not only increases the natural beauty of that waterway but in addition, provides numerous biological benefits.  Fountains and aerators improve aquatic ecosystems by improving water circulation and increasing dissolved oxygen levels in waterways.  The movement and oxygenation of water in an aquatic ecosystem is important because these processes limit the growth of algae and help sustain fish and other aquatic animals.  Subsequently, the increase in fish health and quantity… and the decrease in algae results in less organic residue, improved water clarity, reduced odor, and the attraction of waterfowl. 

As Florida’s #1 distributor of Aqua Control fountains, Palm Beach Aquatics Lakes & Wetlands is able to provide you with the most efficient and durable fountains and display aerators on the market today.  All of our models can be equipped with underwater lighting and other features such as; interchangeable nozzles, adjustable jet patterns, light sequencers, and wind sensors to limit evaporation.

Lake and Pond Aerator Systems

Aeration Reduces Pond Muck - Not only is muck unpleasant to see or feel between your toes, but it can also give your pond a bad odor and provide habitat for leeches. Aeration combats muck and by increasing the dissolved oxygen and circulating the water, encouraging the colonization of beneficial aerobic bacteria that can consume, reduce and prevent muck build-up.

Aeration Improves Water Quality - Muck accumulates not only in the bottom of the pond but can also be suspended throughout the water body giving your pond a murky appearance. By reducing muck and excess nutrients, increasing oxygen, and circulating the water, you will improve your water quality and clarity.

Aeration Boosts Dissolved Oxygen - Without oxygen, your pond will go into an anaerobic state. Anaerobic bacteria are not as efficient at breaking down organic material as their aerobic counterparts and produce gas, giving the pond a rotten egg smell. Incorporating aeration into the pond increases the amount of dissolved oxygen in the water, keeping your pond functioning as an aerobic system.

Aeration Eliminates the Thermocline - Aeration circulates and mixes water to eliminate stratified layers of warmer, surface water and the colder, deeper water, to create an oxygen rich environment throughout your pond.
