Water quality depends on three major factors: oxygenation (amount of oxygen carried in the water), water temperature, and particles in suspension. Our system balances the amount of pools that slow the water down to allow particulates to drop to the bottom combined with then speeding the water up over multiple falls to adds large amounts of oxygen that we see as bubbles.We typically build dozens of separate cascades that operate on a single pump employing the same principle (but at a fraction of the energy consumption) as the aerators commonly used on golf course ponds. Our technique of drawing the water from the cooler depths and far end of the lake to insure total circulation and replace the warmer water at the top prevents aquatic weeds and algae from proliferating by disrupting the naturally occurring stratification and water temperature inversions.
