Your control panel is included

Before you order

Questions our techs answer every week

Only the three-phase models. The 3.3AF and 5.3AF include a CA-3235 panel. Every single-phase model - 2400AF, 3400AF, 3400HAF, 4400AF, 4400HAF, 8400AF, 3.1AF and 5.1AF - ships without one.

If you are buying single-phase, budget for a control panel separately.

Size on surface acreage and average depth. As a working rule from our own installs, plan on roughly 1 to 1.5 HP per surface acre for meaningful oxygen transfer.

Send us your acreage and depth and we will confirm before you order.

Voltage. Both are 3/4 HP single-phase, but the 3400AF runs on 120V and the 3400HAF on 240V. The same applies to the 4400AF and 4400HAF at 1 HP.

The H prefix is the tell. Check the supply at your power source before ordering - it is a different unit, not a plug swap.

Depth decides it. Surface aeration works the top few feet and covers a wide area per horsepower. Diffused aeration lifts the entire column.

Under about eight feet a surface unit is usually enough. Deeper than that, look at diffused aeration.

Two years on the 2400, 3400 and 4400 series. Three years on the 8400AF and every 3 HP and 5 HP model.

Because we are an authorized dealer running our own repair centre, warranty work stays in Canada.

A surface aerator is not a de-icer, but paired with a thermostat panel it can keep water moving as temperatures drop.

If ice prevention around a dock is the actual goal, a purpose-built de-icer is the right tool.

Brandon

I highly recommend the Fountain Depot. Ryan and his team are incredibly knowledgeable and timely. We sought a floating fountain and underwater lights for our client, and Ryan delivered precisely what our client was desiring. The Fountain Place continues to maintain the fountain, and we have had zero issues.

Matt J

I have had the pleasure of working with Ryan from Fountain Depot for the past year +. He designed and rebuilt our fountain from the ground up. They are a very knowledgeable team of guys. Our condo community could not be happier with the job they did for us.
