Description
Powerful, energy-efficient pond aeration system for ponds and water features up to 15,000 gallons. The Aquascape Pro Air 60 delivers high-volume oxygenation for healthier water, fish, plants, and year-round pond performance.
High-Performance Pond Aeration
The Pro Air 60 is designed for larger ponds where reliable oxygenation and strong water circulation are essential.
Delivering up to 2.1 CFM (60 L/min) of loaded airflow through two aeration diffusers, the system helps support beneficial biological activity while improving conditions for koi, pond fish, and aquatic plants.
Premium Highlight
Designed for ponds up to 15,000 gallons and depths up to 11.5 feet, the Pro Air 60 combines a powerful 45-watt outdoor-rated compressor, dual adjustable air zones, and two self-cleaning 10" diffusers in one complete pond aeration kit.
Why Aerate Your Pond?
Dissolved oxygen is essential to a healthy pond ecosystem. Fish, beneficial bacteria, and other biological processes all depend on adequate oxygen levels.
Continuous pond aeration increases water movement and oxygen transfer, helping maintain healthier conditions through hot summer weather and supporting the pond through winter.
Ideal For
- Large backyard ponds and koi ponds
- Ponds up to 15,000 gallons
- Water depths up to 11.5 feet
- Ponds needing stronger oxygenation and circulation
- Summer pond aeration during warm weather
- Winter pond aeration during freezing conditions
Two Aeration Zones with Individual Flow Control
The included two-way manifold allows the compressor to operate two separate airlines and diffusers from one system.
Each outlet has independent airflow adjustment, allowing you to balance aeration between different areas or depths of the pond.
Why two diffusers matter
Two diffuser locations can distribute aeration more effectively across a larger pond than concentrating all airflow in one location, while individual valves allow the final airflow to be adjusted to the site.
Self-Cleaning Aeration Diffusers
Two 10" rubber membrane diffusers produce fine bubbles for efficient oxygen transfer and water movement.
The rubber membrane expands during operation to help clear clogging debris, while the internal ballast keeps each diffuser positioned at the bottom without requiring separate weights during normal warm-season operation.
Built for Outdoor & Canadian Seasonal Use
The outdoor-rated 45-watt compressor uses a heavy-duty metal housing and integrated rubber feet to help minimize vibration and operating noise.
Freeze-resistant 3/8" braided airlines and pre-installed check valves make the system suitable for year-round pond aeration, including Canadian winter conditions when installed correctly.
Important Winter Setup
During winter, do not leave the diffusers at the deepest point of the pond. Aquascape recommends positioning them approximately 1 to 1.5 feet below the surface to maintain a small opening in the ice without disturbing the deeper thermocline where fish overwinter.

Installation & Recommendations
- Place the compressor near a GFCI-protected electrical receptacle
- Position the compressor above pond water level whenever possible
- Use both diffusers to distribute aeration across larger areas of the pond
- Adjust individual manifold valves to balance airflow between diffuser locations
- For winter use, reposition diffusers approximately 1–1.5 ft below the surface
Professional Tip
Do not choose an aerator by pond gallons alone. Pond depth, shape, fish load, and diffuser placement all influence aeration performance. For larger or irregular ponds, using the two diffusers in separate zones can provide much better circulation than placing them together.
FAQ
What size pond is the Aquascape Pro Air 60 designed for?
The Pro Air 60 is designed for ponds and water features up to 15,000 gallons, with a maximum recommended pond depth of 11.5 feet.
How much air does the Pro Air 60 supply?
The system delivers up to 2.1 CFM, or 60 litres per minute, of loaded airflow through a two-way manifold and two aeration diffusers.
Can the Pro Air 60 be used for koi ponds and fish ponds?
Yes. Pond aeration supplies dissolved oxygen and water movement that support healthier conditions for koi and other pond fish, aquatic plants, and beneficial biological processes.
Can I run the Pro Air 60 during a Canadian winter?
Yes. The system can operate through freezing months and the surface movement can help maintain a small opening in the ice. For winter use, Aquascape recommends positioning the diffusers about 1 to 1.5 feet below the surface rather than on the bottom of the pond.
Does the Pro Air 60 replace a pond de-icer?
The aeration system can help maintain a small opening in the ice through water movement and bubbles, but it is not an electric heater. Winter performance depends on pond conditions and diffuser placement.
Can I control the two diffusers separately?
Yes. The included two-way manifold provides individual airflow control for each airline, allowing the two diffuser zones to be balanced independently.
What warranty comes with the Pro Air 60 Pond Aeration Kit?
The Aquascape Pro Air 60 Pond Aeration Kit carries a 3-year limited warranty.
