Description
The North Star Fountain Aerator enhances ponds and lakes with its elegant, trumpet-shaped design while providing powerful aeration, debris reduction, and effective algae control.
Our commercial-sized North Star models boast impressive water movement, ranging between 700 and 800 gallons per minute. This creates a robust surface current, facilitating oxygenation and the removal of algae and debris. Suitable for commercial, residential, and municipal use, the North Star stands out both in daylight and at night with optional lighting. Light sets can be ordered and installed at your convenience, either immediately or at a later time.
The Scott Aerator Company has engineered all of its water features to eliminate the need for time-consuming, costly winterizing products and procedures. Simply leave your aerator or fountain in the water, turn the power supply off, and forget about it for the winter. Once the water thaws in the spring, re-establish power to the unit and you’re good to go. All of the components will withstand sub-zero conditions without damage.
GFCI required. Always disconnect power when swimmers are present.
