Many ponds and lakes might look calm and healthy on the surface — but below that still water, serious problems are often brewing. One of the most common and overlooked issues is low dissolved oxygen (DO) and water stratification, which can lead to poor water quality, foul odors, algae blooms, and even fish kills.
The Real Issue: Stagnant and Stratified Water
When water becomes stagnant, it naturally separates into layers — warm, oxygen-rich water on top and cold, oxygen-poor water at the bottom. This condition, known as thermal stratification, prevents oxygen from circulating throughout the pond.
Without sufficient oxygen:
- Fish and aquatic life struggle to survive in deeper areas.
- Organic waste builds up, creating sludge and foul smells.
- Algae blooms flourish on the surface due to nutrient imbalance.
- Water quality deteriorates, making the pond unhealthy and unattractive.
These problems not only affect the pond’s ecosystem but can also increase maintenance costs and damage nearby equipment or systems relying on clean water.
The Smart Solution: Pond Aeration & Destratification System
At IGS Water, we offer an advanced Pond Aeration and Destratification System designed to restore balance and health to your water body. Our system actively circulates water from stagnant areas, breaking up thermal layers and increasing oxygen levels evenly throughout the pond.
