Ok guys you have maybe convinced me
So can you please give me some advice on a do it yourself system design.
pond is a valley dammed up thus shape like slice of pie. max depth 20ft avg depth 10ft. size 1.2surface acres.
I will run 230V 30amp electric to pond.
I want to use a gast rotary vane compressor as they seem to be the least PIA and last longest if taken care of.
Disc diffusers vertex or matala 9 inch? I was thinking about using a set of 2 difussers at 18ft deep end towards dam and another set of 2 diffusers at about 10ft towards shallow end. So what do you guys say? will that get it done?
what size gast the 1/4hp or the 3/4 better?
I got a design from a company that wants to sell me a 1/2 hp rocking piston compressor (which I do not want) and use 3 aeration stations 2 deep end at 18ft and 1 station shallow end 10ft.
I am more than capable of the self installation and building of a pump house, electric, etc.
