- Overview
Scott Aerator's fully programmable oscillator attachment is a great time-saving option for our dock-mounted Aquasweep or De-icer. We pre-program the Oscillator to rotate your dock-mounted unit in 20-degree increments every 20 minutes. You set it for any radius you want, up to a full circle. The speed and the degree of motion can easily be adjusted to your requirements. The Oscillator will help keep larger areas free from ice when used with the Dock Mount De-Icer, and will assist in moving more bottom debris when used with the Aquasweep. The Oscillator can be added to in-place Aquasweep and De-Icer models. Comes with a two-year warranty. Requires 110-volt power.
As exciting as purchasing a new fountain can be, it can also be confusing.
The most important thing to consider is whether your pond meets the minimum depth requirements.
Above, in the product description, you will find a size chart, and on the far right is the "Min-Depth" specification.For example, if it indicates "32 inches", that particular horsepower fountain needs to be positioned in a body of water with a depth of 2.67 feet.
Once we've established this, we need to ensure that the display size won't be too large for it. We reccommend atleast allowing a 10 FT minimum between the fountain's spray and your pond's edge.
In our product descriptions, we've carefully included a size chart to help determine the right horsepower for your pond size.
Ultimately, once you have your depth measured, or if you already know your ponds depth, choosing a size is very easy
We recommend using at least 1 horsepower per acre for your fountain. This amount will give you adequate display size and aeration for your pond.
Feel free to opt for a larger fountain if you prefer!
Just make sure there's at least a 10-foot distance between the fountain's spray and the edge of your pond.
If there's no power source by your pond yet, it's best to get a licensed electrician to set one up for you.
Once you've got the power sorted, installing our fountains is quite simple. They just float in the middle of the pond, anchored with nylon rope and cinder blocks on two sides. Then, they plug into the power source on the pond's edge with a submersible cord.
Many customers choose to DIY their fountain installation to save on costs, but it all depends on what resources you have available.
