Description
Aquarian Quantum 20HP Surface Aerator
The Aquarian Quantum 20HP surface aerator is designed to perform two basic functions:
- Create a large continuous air/water interface to transfer atmospheric oxygen to the liquid being aerated
- Mix the liquid contents and keep degradable solids in suspension
The Aquarian Quantum surface aeration system for ponds & lakes produces a large volume of water. It produces 3400 gpm for a five horsepower unit up to 8300 rpm for a 20hp unit. The Quantum diffuser redirects the water column from the propeller to an omni-directional pattern that is propelled at right angles to the water surface from the unit outward. As the redirected water flow from the diffuser is propelled through the air at a tremendous velocity, oxygen is being added at a substantial rate.
A sizable induced flow creates maximum directional flow. Â In addition, it maximizes the dispersion of aerated water within the basin being treated.
All Season Performance! With over 95% of the weight of the aerator beneath the liquid surface of your pond, the Quantum surface aerator is guaranteed not to capsize due to ice or turbulence.
NOTE: Other cable lengths and sizes are available. Call for pricing.

When to Use a Surface Aerator
Surface aerators are your go-to solution when your pond or lagoon needs a breath of fresh air. Use them when you notice algae taking over, or when foul odors start creeping in—they’re great at clearing up both! If your fish seem sluggish or unhealthy, a surface aerator can boost their vitality by oxygenating the water. It’s also a smart choice if your pond is on the shallow side, as they’re designed to work best in these conditions. Whether your pond is a cozy backyard oasis or a sprawling lagoon, a surface aerator is your secret weapon for keeping it clean, clear, and full of life.
How Our Surface Aerator Works
The Quantum diffuser channels water from the propeller into an omni-directional pattern, shooting it outward at right angles to the water’s surface. This innovative design, featured in the Aquarian Quantum surface aeration system, generates a significant volume of water flow, ranging from 3400 gallons per minute for a five-horsepower unit to 8300 gallons per minute for a 20-horsepower unit. As this redirected water rushes through the air at high speed, it adds oxygen to the water at an impressive rate.
In addition to aerating the water, the increased surface movement helps to mix it thoroughly, reducing floating debris and anaerobic zones in the bottom water and sediment surface. Over time, this reduction in sediment can lead to decreased algae and weed growth, contributing to a clearer and fresher pond while minimizing odors.
