The Boilermaker is a high-performance surface aerator designed to maximize oxygen transfer and water circulation, making it one of the most effective solutions for improving pond and lake health. Available in motor sizes ranging from ⅓ hp up to 3 hp, it’s suitable for everything from small ponds to large lakes.
Its low-profile design produces a powerful, high-volume “white boil†effect—rapidly circulating and oxygenating water without a tall spray pattern. This makes it the perfect choice if water quality and ecosystem health are your top priorities.
Built to perform year-round, the Boilermaker also functions as an efficient de-icer during the winter months. Thanks to Scott Aerator’s durable engineering, there’s no need for costly or time-consuming winterization. Simply shut off the power in the fall, leave the unit in place, and restart it in the spring—every component is designed to withstand freezing conditions without damage.
Each unit is powered by a stainless steel, oil-free, submersible motor, making it environmentally friendly, maintenance-free, and simple to operate. There’s no oil to change, no control box required, and no complicated upkeep.
Every Boilermaker comes standard with 70 feet of heavy-duty, 12-gauge submersible power cord, with longer lengths available to fit your needs. Larger motor sizes and voltage options are also available for specialized applications such as landfill operations.
Important Safety Note: A GFCI is required. Always disconnect power when swimmers are present.
