What is ID.me?
A two-diffuser linear aeration system built for shallow ponds 7' deep or less — quiet, energy-efficient, and easy to install.
Ideal for irregularly shaped or long, narrow ponds up to 3/4 acre.
Energy-efficient linear compressor keeps operating costs low year-round.
Oil-free design runs quietly enough for backyard ponds and water gardens.
Improves oxygen levels, reduces algae, and helps prevent winter fish kills.
Quick-sink tubing and weighted manifold mean no extra weights to install.
3-year warranty on the compressor, 5-year warranty on tubing and diffusers.

Shop Pond Dye →Why do I need a pond aerator, and what are the benefits?
A pond aerator increases oxygen levels, improves water circulation, reduces algae growth, prevents fish kills, and eliminates foul odors caused by stagnant water.
How do I determine the right size aerator for my pond?
The right aerator depends on your pond's size, depth, and shape. Deeper ponds require bottom-diffused aeration, while shallower ponds may benefit from a system like this one.
Can I run my aerator year-round, even in winter?
Yes! Aerators help prevent winter fish kills by keeping a portion of the pond ice-free, allowing for gas exchange. In extremely cold climates, you may want to adjust placement or reduce operation.
How loud is this aerator, and where should I place the compressor?
The KLC80 compressor runs quietly, and a sound-dampening cabinet is available if needed. Place the compressor on dry, level ground near a power source, ideally in a ventilated cabinet.
What maintenance does this aerator require?
Regular maintenance includes cleaning air filters, checking tubing and diffusers for clogs, and confirming the compressor is running properly. Upkeep is minimal.
Is there a warranty?
Yes — 3 years on the compressor and 5 years on the tubing and diffusers.
