Have a pond in a remote location without reliable access to electricity? The Solar Boilermaker Aerator is the perfect solution. Powered by the sun, this system uses a variable-speed, submersible Franklin Electric motor capable of moving up to 300 gallons per minute with the four-panel model, or up to 200 gallons per minute with the two-panel model.
Designed with efficiency in mind, the Boilermaker is one of the most eco-friendly aerators available today. Its low-profile design minimizes water display while maximizing pond health. The solar-powered motor delivers high-volume water circulation to boost oxygen transfer, which supports fish health, accelerates the breakdown of organic matter, and reduces pond muck over time. At the surface, strong water movement helps clear away algae and floating debris, keeping your pond clean and vibrant.
The Solar Boilermaker is built for daytime aeration. It automatically powers up with the sun, runs at variable speeds depending on sunlight, and shuts down at night. Unlike many solar aerators, it operates without costly, high-maintenance batteries. Its stainless steel, oil-free motor ensures long-lasting durability and minimal maintenance.
This aerator also doubles as a pond de-icer during winter months. Like all Scott Aerator products, it’s engineered to withstand harsh conditions without the need for complicated winterizing. Simply turn off the power in the fall, leave the unit in place, and restart it in spring once the water thaws. Every component is built to endure sub-zero temperatures without damage.
What You’ll Need to Provide:
- Vertical pole for the solar panel frame
- Concrete footing for the pole
- Two anchor ropes with weights or tethers for the aerator
Safe for both freshwater and saltwater use, the Solar Boilermaker Aerator is a reliable, eco-friendly way to keep your pond healthy year-round. Please disconnect power whenever swimmers are present.
