Got a pond or lake sitting far from any power line? You don't have to choose between clean, oxygenated water and being off the grid. The Solaer 1.2 runs on nothing but sunlight, keeping your water moving day and night with battery back-up that carries it through cloudy skies and after sundown. Say goodbye to stagnant water, murky clarity, and stressed fish.
Most solar aerators stop the moment the sun dips below the horizon. This one keeps working. The patented battery back-up system gives you an average of 20 hours of run time across day and night, so your water never sits still while you sleep.
Prefer even longer performance? Add the optional Lithium Ion battery upgrade to push run time up to 24 hours.
Place your panel where it can soak up sun from sunrise to sunset for the best results.

Open the attractive, sound-deadening cabinet and you'll find every component built to last, all housed together and protected from the elements.
The cabinet walls measure a full 3/4 inch thick, a far cry from the thin plastic or metal housings on cheaper units. Operational sound stays low at just 50/60 DB.
To mount the system you'll also need a 2" Schedule 40 mounting pole, which is required but not included. A Level-Aer™ equipment pad is suggested as well but is not included.
The EcoFlow™ compressor pushes a strong payload of compressed air down to two Duraplate™ diffusers that oxygenate your entire water column. These aren't flimsy plastic parts.
Oxygen is the single most important thing your fish and aquatic life need. A well-aerated pond means healthier fish, less unwanted bacteria, and no scum build-up that makes water look unappealing.
The airline connecting your compressor to the diffusers is where a lot of systems cut corners. Not here. The durable Alpine™ 1/2" weighted airline carries a lifetime warranty and measures 1/2" ID by 1" OD.
What comes in the box depends on the option you choose:
Sized for water up to 2 acres, this system suits nearly any setting where power is scarce or you'd simply rather run on the sun.
Aeration is the foundation of good water quality. It raises dissolved oxygen levels and eliminates water stratification. Changes begin the moment you start the system, though most owners see clear visible improvement in about 6 weeks.
When you first fire up any aerator, it stirs up poor-quality water and organic debris from the bottom. This can briefly increase oxygen demand and raise phosphorus and nitrogen levels. It's a sensitive stretch for the lake, but as long as the system keeps running, it works through these issues and the water turns around.
Running an aerator through winter helps the aquatic environment beneath the ice by keeping oxygen up and reducing sludge. A hole in the ice can form as a result. Never walk on the ice, as it may be weak and hazardous, and check whether local regulations require a warning sign. Need help sizing or setting up your system?
