How can a fountain benefit my pond?

Not only can a floating fountain add beauty to your pond, it can also help to aerate the water, increase oxygen levels, and deter the establishment of aquatic weeds and algae.  The more water moves, the more oxygen it contains which helps keep the ecosystem healthy.   A lake or pond that experiences little movement will result in thermal stratification (different temperature layers).  At the bottom of a lake or pond, it is very cold and oxygen depleting bacteria can grow and absorb all of the oxygen from the environment.  This puts stress on fish and other aquatic organisms.  A fountain can help to stir up these layers to prevent stratification.
AQUA DOC carries many types of fountains from Aquamaster, Kasco, Aqua Control, and Otterbein.  Each of these brands offers a variety of spray patters that can keep your lake or pond healthy and beautiful. 
The Aquamaster fountain system is our top selling brand.  Aquamaster offers a wide variety of spray patterns.  All of their nozzles are interchangeable (except Captiva) which allows you to customize your fountain whenever you want.  These fountains create beautiful scenes while improving water quality.  Aquamaster fountains are built for performance and longevity, while being energy efficient.  Aquamaster fountains, 1-5 HP, have many great features such as:
·         High efficiency stainless steel impeller system.
