Solar Powered Water Treatment
We are the Dealer for Keeton Industries (USA) in Australia and New Zealand.
Solutions for Eutrophied Ponds:
from Algae to Clarity
Without proper aeration and treatment for lake water environments, poor quality water is likely to occur. There are many common issues that are going to frequently arise, if your water environment does not accommodate an aerating solution or any water treatment. One of the most common problems that can transpire is stagnant water. When a body of water becomes stagnant, there is generally little to no movement within that body of water. This will allow organic materials - like leaves, dirt, twigs, etc. - to break down slowly and rot, with no process for removal. Stagnant degradation is going to trap ammonia, nitrite, nitrate and hydrogen sulfide in one place, which will ultimately cause an odor, as well as aquatic animal death and sickness. A stagnant water body can, additionally, become harmful to humans, who may fish or recreate in or around the pond or lake.
Our Aeration Systems and natural Water Treatments which are designed and manufactured by Keeton Industries (USA) have a 40 year history of restoring ponds and lakes across the globe, while maintaining the reputation as one of the most reliable brands on the market today. This Industrial Aeration ensures a continuous supply of oxygen - rich air supply to the entire water column, or thermocline, with powerful and efficient compressor technology that has the ability to generate voluminous amounts of supplied air, while running cool and conserving energy.
We offer natural water treatments that work in tandem with our Industrial Aeration Systems. Bacteria and enzymes will help to eat and remove the organic material that is at the bottom of the water, within the water column. Once they are applied, their colonies begin to grow and eliminate more organic material. If the water environment contains aeration, the bacteria is going to grow even faster, while working more efficiently to knock out contaminants and clean the water thoroughly.
We are delighted to offer you a custom system design tailored to your pond, including a detailed layout that configures the aeration lines and positions the aerators for optimal performance and results.
Solar Aeration Systems
Solar aeration is perfect for any solar pond aeration or lake aeration that does not have electricity at the shoreline. Solaer® systems run off of batteries, so that means you don’t ever need electricity. If you have a pond or lake that is remotely located, you can still have a quality aeration system that will keep your water clean and clear, all year round. Most importantly, aerator is a completely “green” and eco-friendly option.
Our Solar pond aeration systems which are designed and manufactured by Keeton Industries (USA) require very little maintenance, running during the day and all through the night—even on cloudy days! Our systems use solar panels that are made from many connected photovoltaic cells. The solar panels are encased in a non-reflective, insulated pane of glass. The insulation helps to control the temperature inside the panel and keep it from over-heating.
Photovoltaic cells are made from multi-layered silicone. The top layer is treated with phosphorus, which creates a negative charge, while the bottom layer is treated with boron, which creates a positive charge. Once the layers are positioned over one another, they create an electric field between the layers, very much like a battery. When sunlight hits the solar panel, the electric field between the positive and negative layers will cause electrons to be released. Metal plates are on each side of each cell to collect the energy and transfer it to the wiring, which feeds the DC current into a power inverter, creating electricity. In the case of Solaer® aeration, energy is stored in the back-up battery supply system, housed in the cabinet for use on cloudy days and during nighttime hours.
