Multicolor Floating Fountain

A floating Aerating Fountain is the perfect solution when you want to enjoy the aesthetic brilliance of a decorative fountain and balance that with superior oxygenation to improve the health of your pond or lake. Not to be confused with decorative fountains, a floating Aerating Fountain is designed and engineered to give you the best of both works. Lakes and ponds have many different functions; they collect sediment and runoff during rain storms, they operate as fishing spots for angling enthusiasts and they serve as beautiful ecosystems for communities to enjoy year-round. But when left unmanaged, they can develop physical and chemical imbalances that may jeopardize the lifespan of the waterbody and the wellbeing of the surrounding ecosystem. When imbalances do occur in a lake or pond, one of the initial strategies recommended by professionals to help restore balance and prevent future problems is the introduction of an aeration system. Depending on the unique goals and characteristics of the lake or pond, two types of aeration systems may be considered: floating fountains and submersed diffused aeration. A bathymetric study can help identify the unique depths and contours of your waterbody and determine the most effective system placement. Floating fountains: this type of fountain, as well as achieving a pleasing aesthetic effect, allows the pond and lake aeration. The method is simple, as it is aided by the jets which break up into small spheres of water, making contact with the atmosphere and returning with a film of air, falling back into the pond to transfer the air which surrounds them to the rest of the water. Additionally, the splashes which the falling water creates generate a wave motion on the surface, aiding the breakage of the superficial film formed by dust, pollen and CO2, thus increasing the pond aeration. Shallow lakes and ponds can benefit from floating fountains, which encourage surface aeration by spraying water into the air in a variety of aesthetically-pleasing patterns, depending on nozzle type. Beneficial oxygenation occurs when the water splashes back down onto the pond, allowing for submerged gases to escape at the surface. Surface aeration is very effective in shallow waterbodies because all of the oxygen transfer occurs near the surface. However, it�s not as effective in lakes and ponds more than six feet deep because oxygenation cannot be achieved in greater depths near the sediment.
