I thought it might be of general interest to start a thread on aeration specifically designed to open a hole in ice. I am currently researching this and we have discussed it as part of other threads, but I thought that a dedicated topic might be useful for others in the future. I am thinking that an 80-120 watt linear-piston compressor might be good, like these: http://www.whatpond.com/easypro/easypro-aeration/linear-piston-compressor/combined with an inexpensive coarse-bubble wastewater diffuser like this: http://www.coleparmer.com/Product/Downflow_Coarse_Bubble_Diffuser_Celcon_3_4_NPT/EW-70025-04My thinking is low maintenance, low noise, and a reasonable start-up cost. The diffuser would go in 4' of water. Does anyone have experience with specific makes or models? Does anyone see a flaw in this system, its sizing, or have any alternative suggestions? Any success stories? Anyone know of a source for 3/4" sinking line in a 25' length? Any help or ideas are appreciated.
