New Solar Lake Aerator for Ribby Hall Village in Preston

Ribby Hall in Preston recently installed one of the world’s very best Solar Aeration systems created by Heathland Group Limited in the UK. The SolarAir 10800 solar lake aerator provides aeration by pumping air to self-cleaning diffusers situated on the lake bed. No power is required within the water making this system the ideal solution for their newly created water sports lake.

The SolarAir solar lake aerator is completely self-contained. It provides a silent solution for people looking to use Solar to keep their lake or pond in healthy condition. No external power is required to run the SolarAir which provides the lake with 24/7 aeration.

Why did Ribby Hall Village want Aeration?

The team at Ribby Hall knew early on that aeration would be one of the very best ways to manage the lake’s water quality, preventing Algae blooms from causing closures to the resort’s very popular new water sports attraction. After looking at a number of aeration systems the SolarAir solar lake aerator from Heathland Group ticked all the boxes including one of the most important, Environmentally Friendly Operation.

The Requirements?

Ribby Hall had a list of basic requirements which included;

• Reliable Equipment
• Low Maintenance
• Safe for Water Users
• Able to Maintain and Improve Water Quality
• Low to Zero Running costs
• Good Warranties

The SolarAir was able to fit into all of these categories. It benefits from being self-contained and independent from another power source. The SolarAir is able to run 24 hours per day due to its high-quality battery backup and night running storage. It is based on low voltage making it completely safe to operate and requires no power within the lake. The warranties on the system are the very best on the global market offering up to 10 years.

The Equipment Provided:

The SolarAir solar lake aerator was launched onto the market 2 years ago. This was due to the demand for aeration systems in both remote locations and locations which wanted to reduce power consumption and turn their site into a green location. Heathland Group knew the market well and understood that other systems provided by manufacturers from around the world were extremely limited, costly and in many cases unsafe.

The SolarAir was born, able to run 24/7 unlike any of its competition, was safe and most of all each element of the system is monitored to make sure it continues to provide a low maintenance performance for many years.

 

 

 

Comparing the cost of the SolarAir to other forms of Aeration

All of the costs shown above are based on the rate of £0.45 per kW and a lake or pond size of 1 Acre.

Clients Comments:

“We spent a lot of time looking for a company that could advise us on a solution for our new lake and we have been extremely satisfied with the service, options and ultimately the cost-effective solution which meets our sustainable objectives, that Darren from Heathland has provided.  The Quality of the system surpasses anything else we have reviewed and to date, the equipment has been faultless. We will continue to work with Darren from Heathland Group for any future requirements and for ongoing maintenance. We would have no hesitation in recommending them to other clients.”
