Price List Kasco Products 2009

Examples of Typical Applications

Typical applications include commercial aquaculture, agricultural ponds, industrial plants, municipal waste water and backyard ponds. These units are typically selected for surface aeration when a decorative fountain pattern is neither necessary nor desired.

Auburn University has performed independent product tests and has found that Kasco's aerators’ SAE (Standard Aeration Efficiency) is at least 3.0 lbs. of oxygen per horsepower per hour of operation, making them some of the most efficient and effective units available.

All Kasco pond aerators are self-contained, lightweight units that float at the surface with a single power cord returning to shore and two or three mooring lines anchoring the unit. The units are easily installed and maintained by a single person and have proven to be an excellent choice for both continuous duty pond or lake aeration and supplemental aeration for unique applications.

Features and Benefits of Pond Aerators

• Efficient / Low Power Use: Highest efficiency design for low power consumption versus competing units. Reduces operating costs over the entire life of the unit.
• Rugged Motor: Environmentally friendly design with a hard-face internal mechanical seal and external lip seal for protection against leaks. Long-life top and bottom ball bearings. Flood oil lubricated for excellent heat dissipation.
• Corrosion Resistant: Superior dependability in salt-water or other corrosive environments. All external metal motor, float, and hardware components are of stainless steel composition and protected by a sacrificial zinc anode.
• Low Maintenance: Clean the motor housing once or twice per year and replacing the sacrificial zinc anode when visibly corroded.
• Fully Tested: ETL listed to stringent UL and CSA Safety Standards.
• Ships Easily: Via UPS
• Dependable: Backed by a two-year warranty (three-year warranty for the 2, 3, and 5HP)

Learn About Bottom Aerators

During the summer months, when water is warm, oxygen can be consumed faster than it can be replenished.  Lakes can become "stratified"; the warmer, oxygen-rich upper water laying on  top of the cool, more dense, lower oxygen deeper water.

Such conditions inhibit levels of beneficial bacteria and their breakdown of organics.  
Bottom muck accumulation increaded and excessive nutrients are readily available for
plant/algae growth.  This thermal stratification also makes conditions favorable for the
production of noxious ammonia and hydrogen sulfide gases.

Vertex bottom aeration systems create a vertical current using the rising force of millions of small bubbles to entrain the water column, "turning the lake over" and allowing oxygen to be absorbed at the lake's surface.

By moving the lower-oxygen water up from the bottom and eliminating thermal stratification, oxygen levels throughout the water column are increased.  Wide swings in oxygen are stabilized, preventing fish kills.  Our systems are also made to improve sport fisheries by allowing fish to expand their territory into formerly oxygen-deprived portions of the lake.
