Scott Aerator Boilermaker Surface Aerator

The Scott Aerator Boilermaker is a powerful surface aerator designed to improve water quality in ponds and lakes. It circulates large volumes of water while increasing dissolved oxygen levels, helping support fish health and reduce issues like algae growth and stagnant water.

The Boilermaker is available in ½ HP through 3 HP models, making it suitable for ponds ranging from small residential ponds to larger lakes several acres in size. Proper sizing depends on pond depth, nutrient levels, and desired circulation.

Surface aerators pull water upward and spray it into the air, allowing oxygen to mix with the water before it returns to the pond. This process increases dissolved oxygen, improves water circulation, and helps prevent stagnant conditions.

While it is not an algae treatment itself, the Boilermaker helps reduce conditions that promote algae growth by improving circulation and oxygen levels throughout the pond.

Most Boilermaker models are available in 115V or 230V configurations, depending on the horsepower selected and the electrical service available at your installation site.

The Boilermaker is a floating surface aerator that sits on a durable floating platform and is secured using mooring lines to keep it in position within the pond.

Yes. The Boilermaker uses an oil-free motor design, which eliminates the risk of oil contamination in the water and makes it safe for fish and other aquatic organisms.

Installation distance depends on the length of the power cable used with the aerator. These units are commonly installed in deeper sections of the pond to maximize circulation.

Maintenance is minimal. Periodic inspection and cleaning of debris from the unit will help maintain optimal performance and extend the life of the aerator.
