- 💡 Note: Windmill aerators are excellent supplemental systems to electric aeration; installation in open, unobstructed areas maximizes performance and the system can be upgraded to a dual-diffuser setup in high-wind areas.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions +
Does this 4-leg windmill aerator require electricity?
No. This system is 100% wind-powered, making it ideal for off-grid properties and remote pond locations.
How much wind is required for operation?
The windmill begins producing airflow in wind speeds as low as 3–5 mph, with higher wind speeds increasing overall aeration output.
What is the difference between 3-leg and 4-leg windmill towers?
The 4-leg tower provides increased structural stability and a traditional windmill appearance while maintaining the same proven BalCam II compressor performance.
