May 2, 2008 – Vol.13 No.6 Outdoor Water Solutions (OWS) Offers Windmils to Aerate Small Ponds and Lakes. The wind powered systems can replace electrically powered aerators used to improve pond ecosystems. Owners of the more than 10 million small ponds and lakes located in the United States face challenges ranging from unpleasant odors to excess algae, fish kills, disease-carrying mosquitoes and reduced livestock growth. These problems are often caused by a build up of nutrients which causes excess algae and an increase of muck and organic matter on the pond floor. Aeration is the key to improving the ecosystem as it adds vital oxygen back into the water, helping to break down excess nutrients and restore it to a healthy state. According to the company, adding oxygen-rich bubbles to aerate the water goes a long way to eliminating problems. OWS has developed its ‘Bal-Cam’ technology to significantly increase the amount of air produced with a single diaphragm compressor utilizing a balanced camshaft system. The windmill itself is based on traditional designs.
“We are aggressive about combining Mother Nature’s water and wind resources with our state-of-the-art technology to arrive at solutions that help people,” said John Redd, OWS president. “Our goal is to bring environmentally sound solutions to outdoor water issues, while ‘Working with Nature.’ Aeration is a relatively unknown solution for outdoor water problems; our goal to educate the market on the benefits of aeration and pond management,” added Redd. “Our focus is to deliver products that help improve water to benefit livestock, horses, fish and the environment, and improve the recreational uses of pond and lake water.” (5/1/08)
