Bottom Aerators: Comprehensive Pond Aeration Solutions

Bottom aerators operate effectively in tanks ranging from 10 to 65 feet deep. The jet nozzle design maintains optimal oxygen transfer and mixing throughout the entire depth range.

All mechanical components—pumps and blowers—are located outside the tank. The optional pneumatic backflush system prevents clogging, eliminating the need to drain tanks or perform in-basin maintenance for 40+ years.

Yes, bottom aeration systems can handle solid particles up to 2.2 inches (55mm) in diameter. The robust nozzle design with 450+ Brinell hardness prevents wear even in abrasive applications.

Jet aeration systems deliver up to 5 lbs O2/HP-hr at standard conditions with an alpha factor of 0.85, providing superior oxygen transfer compared to conventional diffused aeration methods.

Yes, bottom aerators are designed for sub-zero to high-temperature operations. All aeration occurs below the surface, eliminating icing, mist, and spray problems common in cold climates.

Each system is custom-designed using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling to analyze velocity patterns and particle paths, ensuring optimal mixing with no dead zones for your specific tank geometry and process requirements.
