{"product_id":"bubble-pro-max-xl-subsurface-aerators","title":"Scott Aerator Bubble Pro Max XL Subsurface Aerators","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Bubble Pro Max XL sits at the top of Scott Aerator's subsurface aeration line, configured with four double diffusers and a three-quarter-horsepower compressor for the largest ponds and small lakes in the range. The compressor is installed on land and feeds four separate weighted airlines, each running out to a diffuser resting on the bed. Because every component is either on the bank or on the bottom, the water surface stays completely open.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAir pushed from the shore unit reaches each diffuser and leaves as a tight column of bubbles. On the way up those bubbles entrain the oxygen-poor water sitting near the bed and lift it to the surface, where it sheds accumulated gases and takes on oxygen before settling back down. With four diffuser stations the pond gets this turnover at four separate points, which matters on a large body of water where a single plume would leave most of the bottom untouched.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRated coverage climbs with depth because a deeper water column lets each bubble do more work on its rise. Scott Aerator puts the XL at roughly one acre in water 5 to 8 feet deep, two acres from 9 to 12 feet, and four acres between 13 and 16 feet. Each of the four hoses carries its own control valve, so airflow can be divided unevenly when the diffusers end up at different depths.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn cold climates the XL also functions as an ice-prevention system. Continuous operation through winter keeps water moving upward at each diffuser, holding openings in the ice so gases do not accumulate beneath a sealed surface. The compressor is sold on its own or with a deluxe lockable steel cabinet for installations where the shore-side equipment needs to be secured and protected.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour double diffusers for bottom placement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour 100-foot lengths of 3\/8-inch quick-sink weighted airline tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree-quarter-horsepower rocking-piston air compressor in either 115 V or 230 V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eValved air outlet assembly with four individually controlled hoses and a pressure relief valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll fittings and clamps required for assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe deluxe lockable steel cabinet is a separate option and is not part of the base system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Scott Aerator","offers":[{"title":"115 volts","offer_id":67834117488831,"sku":"44150","price":2359.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"230 volts","offer_id":67834117521599,"sku":"44150.23","price":2379.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/1967\/6351\/files\/bubble-pro-4-max-xl-feature.jpg?v=1793483693","url":"https:\/\/adventuremotion.com\/products\/bubble-pro-max-xl-subsurface-aerators","provider":"Adventure Motion","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
