Scott Aerator Solar Skyward Fountain

The Solar Skyward Fountain uses high-efficiency solar panels to power a floating fountain pump, allowing it to operate without grid electricity. During daylight hours, it produces a beautiful vertical spray pattern while circulating and oxygenating the water.

By default, the fountain operates when sufficient sunlight is available. However, optional battery backup systems can store solar energy, allowing the fountain to run during low-light conditions or at night depending on configuration.

This fountain is ideal for small to medium-sized ponds, typically up to about 1/2 acre, depending on depth and desired visual impact. For larger ponds, multiple units may be recommended.

Yes, the Solar Skyward Fountain improves water circulation and increases oxygen levels at the surface, which can help reduce conditions that promote algae growth. For full water column treatment, it may be paired with a bottom diffused aeration system.

Installation is straightforward and does not require electrical work. The system includes: Floating fountain unit, Solar panel assembly, Mooring lines. Most installations can be completed in a few hours with basic tools.

Solar panels can typically be installed onshore within a reasonable distance (often up to 100+ feet depending on setup). Placement should ensure maximum sun exposure for optimal performance.

Maintenance is minimal. Periodic cleaning of the pump intake and solar panels is recommended to maintain peak efficiency. Routine inspection of mooring lines and connections is also advised.

The Skyward Fountain is designed to produce a striking vertical display. While the primary pattern is fixed, performance can vary slightly depending on sunlight intensity and system configuration.

Yes, the fountain is completely safe for fish and aquatic life. It operates without electricity in the water and helps improve oxygen levels, which benefits the overall health of the pond ecosystem.
