At Heathland Fountains & Aerators, we provide specialist lake aeration systems designed to improve water quality, restore balance, and support aquatic life. Whether you’re managing a private lake, estate water, fishery, or golf course feature, our tailored aeration solutions help keep your lake clear, healthy, and oxygen-rich all year round.
Lakes, especially larger or deeper bodies of water, are prone to oxygen depletion and thermal stratification during warmer months. When water forms layers, the lower section becomes cooler but oxygen-poor, while the upper layer remains warmer and oxygen-rich. This lack of circulation causes:
By installing a lake aeration system, you actively mix and oxygenate the entire water column, helping to create a balanced, self-sustaining ecosystem.
We offer a full range of surface and subsurface aeration systems, ensuring the right fit for your lake’s size, depth, and purpose:
Surface-mounted aerators circulate and oxygenate water directly at the surface. These are an excellent choice for lakes that require visible water movement and aeration, while also improving water clarity and reducing stagnation.
Installed on the lakebed, diffused aerators pump air through diffusers, releasing fine bubbles that rise and circulate water from bottom to top. This is highly effective for deeper lakes where complete mixing and oxygen distribution is essential.
A sustainable option for remote or off-grid lakes. Solar aerators provide reliable oxygenation without the need for mains electricity, making them cost-effective and eco-friendly.
Diffused air aeration systems release air from the bottom up, improving circulation and oxygenation throughout the water column.

Q: Why should I aerate my lake?
A: Aeration prevents oxygen depletion, reduces algae growth, and helps remove harmful gases that build up in stagnant water. It also creates a healthy, balanced environment for fish and other aquatic life.
Q: What type of aerator is best for deep lakes?
A: For deeper lakes, diffused aeration systems are the most effective. They release fine bubbles from the lakebed, circulating water from bottom to top for complete mixing and oxygen distribution.
Q: Do solar-powered lake aerators work effectively?
A: Yes. Solar-powered aerators are a reliable and eco-friendly solution for lakes in remote or off-grid locations. They reduce energy costs while maintaining healthy oxygen levels throughout the waterbody.
Q: What are the benefits of lake aeration?
A: Lake aeration improves oxygen levels, supports healthy fish populations, reduces algae and unpleasant odours, prevents harmful gas build-up, and helps keep your water clear and balanced year-round.
