As the winter months are quickly closing in on the Midwest and many surrounding areas it is important for pond owners to take the right measures in maintaining the health of his or her pond during the cold season. There are many different pond maintenance products offered by Sanco Industries that will help keep a pond healthy throughout the winter. Pond aerators are one product that is recommended to keep in a pond all year long.

Pond aerators are extremely effective in introducing healthy amounts of oxygen into pond water. Sanco aerators sit on the bottom of the pond floor with weighted airline ran to a pump on the shore. It is important that the aerator be left in the pond throughout the winter so pond aeration can take place during the winter. This will help with the oxygen levels in the pond during a season when the pond may be in less use, but still needs to be maintained. It also helps maintain oxygen for your fish during these cold months. However, be aware that ice is not safe to be on when you have an aerator.
