A pond fountain adds to the enjoyment and value of a home by improving water quality and decreasing mosquito activity; it can also be a majestic centerpiece, providing distinction and splendor. In a professional setting, lake and pond fountains add a bit of tranquility while providing much-needed aeration. Floating fountains are one of the most popular solutions for pond aeration. Fountains work to increase the transfer of oxygen at the water’s surface. As water from the fountains continuously falls onto the surface, it creates turbulence and circulation that facilitate the flow of oxygen into the water column. These systems are more effective at oxygenating shallower waterbodies, however, they can be installed in deeper waterbodies to serve as a beautiful water feature. Fountains are a great way to enhance the natural oxygenation of the water column, thus creating a healthy ecosystem for your lake or pond. Floating lake fountains and aerators not only add beauty, but they also add function. They are an integral part of your overall lake and pond management. The aeration and circulation that floating fountains provide is essential to maintaining overall pond health. Properly sized lake and pond aeration systems will help to mitigate damage caused by the excessive nutrient loading that occurs through the inflow of stormwater. The beneficial microbial processes in lakes and ponds that are enhanced through well-conceived floating fountain aeration will reduce and eliminate many of the water quality problems faced by lake and pond owners.
