Pond Boss Forums AERATION Should I aerate? Aeration on a budget

3.5 it is kinda the same deal. At least it is not as critical so good choice on which to make homemade. I had a client one time want to save money his landscaper spend 4.5 hours fabricating a brass nozzle. The irrigation pump was used with split line. Turn off irrigation and you could route water to the nozzle. It looked pretty lame. ClLent ran it for a year and then bought a 8400 JF kasco from us. He then admitted he had spent $1,800 time he paid labor for this other system. If you want something that shoots up water I think it is doable to do on your own but again properly not as impressive. Good luck and thanks for buying a Vertex unit and supporting a PB advertiser.
