The Boilermaker is a surface aerator designed to increase oxygen transfer and circulate a high volume of water in small residential ponds. Its low-profile design produces a highly aerated white-boil effect with minimal vertical spray.
This ⅓ hp, 230-volt configuration delivers a flow rate of 300 gallons per minute and is intended for ponds up to ¾ acre. It uses an oil-free submersible motor and is suitable for continuous operation in both fresh water and salt water.
The aerator can also be used as a pond de-icer during winter. It may be left in the pond after the power is turned off and restarted after the water thaws.
