Thomas 12 Volt 1/10hp Air Pump
Aeration improves the aesthetics and overall health of ponds and lakes, reducing the chance of having unsightly algae blooms, the accumulation of sludge and fish kills. To bring these benefits to your pond, you can either toss the water into the air, or you can toss the air into the water. Since air weighs a lot less, your energy expenditure will be less and go further with an air pump — such as this 12-volt model that runs directly off a PV module or two. The bottom-mounted diffuser delivers air as millions of tiny bubbles for better oxygenation and stirring of the pond to discourage stratification.
The Thomas 1/10 hp air pump delivers 1.4 cubic ft. per min. (CFM) at free discharge, or 0.8 CFM at 10 psi. It draws a maximum of 8.5 amps and can be driven to full output by a pair of 75-watt PV modules (sold separately below) with a linear current booster to help startup. The diffuser is properly sized to work with this pump. On site, you’ll need to supply a 2.5" pipe for the poletop mount, weather (and possibly noise) protection for the pump, wiring, small parts and weighed air line as needed by your site particulars.
All products made in USA, except LCB made in Canada.
