Next Generation of Diffused Air System Offers Flexibility and Simplified Operation

Otterbine Barebo Inc. announces the release on the next generation of their diffused aeration system with the Air Flo 2. Developed in response to the markets demand for a premium quality diffused aeration product, the Air Flo 2 provides optimum aeration while maintaining the natural appearance of a water feature.

Diffused aeration systems induce oxygen into water features by producing air bubbles at the pond bottom which transfer through the entire water column effectively mixing bottom and top waters breaking up thermal stratification.
