Supplying oxygen, at depth, in ponds and other water bodies helps to keep the natural aerobic bacteria active and promotes a healthy aquatic ecosystem. Aerobic bacteria in water works to break down decomposing organic material, which is the number one nutrient source for unwanted aquatic vegetation. When there is no available oxygen to support this bacteria, a pond can turn anaerobic, and that is when aquatic weeds will take hold.

BioBoosts employ a honeycomb-like matrix inside of the diffuser that traps the oxygen that they receive in the water for a longer period of time than traditional diffusers. In addition, the air inputs in the diffuser produce thousands of nano-bubbles that bounce around on their way out of the diffuser, getting smaller and multiplying. This large number of tiny bubbles provides maximum oxygen transfer; more small bubbles mean more surface area, which means better aeration. This design makes the BioBoost diffusers effective in as little as 2' of water depth.

In addition to the increased oxygen transfer, the sheer size of the diffuser helps to spread the oxygen over a larger area and create more surface agitation. The exterior membrane will also promote the growth of a biofilm, allowing for the propagation of additional beneficial bacteria to help keep the pond healthy.

Arbourdale's pond experts can design a system specific to your pond, including a diffuser map for optimum aeration.
