Here is a Bill Cody quote: "A common time to stop aeration is when the water gets 50F or high 40's or near these temps. Then the pond usually fully circulates especially if it receives some wind action. Fall circulation stops when ice cover forms and water is typically 39F from about 14"-20" to the bottom."

You can still run your air in the winter, but you'll need a diffuser in shallow water (1-3 feet typically) to avoid super cooling your pond.
