The ideal size for performance and efficiency — our 1–1½ hp Boilermaker aerators are the answer for most ponds in need of more oxygen.
The Boilermaker’s low-profile design produces a powerful “white boil” of highly aerated water without a tall spray pattern. For those focused on pond health, its superior oxygen transfer and robust water circulation make it an excellent choice.
The Boilermaker also works well as a pond de-icer in winter. The Scott Aerator Company has engineered all of its water features to eliminate the need for time-consuming, costly winterizing products and procedures. Simply leave your aerator or fountain in the water, turn off the power supply, and forget about it for the winter. Once the water thaws in the spring, restore power to the unit and you’re good to go. All components will withstand sub-zero conditions without damage.
The Boilermaker is manufactured with a stainless steel, oil-free, submersible motor, making it the most environmentally friendly water aerator on the market. There’s no oil to change, no maintenance required, and no control box needed. Like all Scott Aerator fountains and aerators, the Boilermaker is designed for both fresh and saltwater use.
