Shelby, Sue Cruz is a sales person for Vertex.
You have a large pond/lake - if so why do you need aeration?
Wind action is good aeration for larger bodies of water IMO.
I would talk to Todd Overton, who is experienced with large water bodies.
IIRC, Overton is also a Vertex dealer, but you would get the perspective of a fisheries biologist.

There are options available for aeration that I have experience, either bottom diffuser system or surface aeration, each very effective based on need, single or in combination.

I have Vertex bottom diffuser products that I am very pleased with to prevent stratification and Kasco surface aeration for maximum oxygenation.

My aeration experience is both good and bad with a 2 acre pond, but not qualified to address aeration needs for your larger water body.
