Dredging In Depth one of the best sources of organic weed control:

Dredging sometimes can improve water quality by reducing the
amount of nutrients available from the sediments, thereby reducing nuisance algae blooms. This can occur through direct removal of nutrient-rich sediments, or by deepening the lake enough to allow thermal stratification to develop and thereby limit nutrient movement from deep-water areas to the upper waters. Dredging in areas of rooted aquatic plants controls their growth through direct removal of the lake weeds, and also can limit future regrowth if the new water depths are deeper than sunlight can reach. For lakes that freeze over in the winter, fish survival can be enhanced
by removing oxygen-demanding sediments and creating deeper
water areas.  We have and use all the tools to get the job done correct!

Large or Small Hydraulic Dredging Equipment to meet the needs of the project.

            


Adavance and Updated Hydraulic Dredging Technology:
The hydraulic dredging equipment we use is versitile, self propelled, provides increased dredging, flow capacity and will dredge effectively highly abrasive sediments. Units have a large cutterhead system with dual hydraulic motors embedded in a stepped auger, with pump performance range from 2600-3500gpm. Working capacity from 9.5 wide by 13/22 inches in diameterand working depth up to 22 feet. (we also have smaller units below) 

Dredging the Real Answer for Aquatic Weed Control. Remove years of sediments, add water depth which is important to deter weed growth. The more sunlight penetration usually the more weed growth you will have. Which starts out with high nutrient levels on the lake bottom, which can be found at times after too much use of chemicals. The chemicals will keep decomposing the plant and adding sediment to the bottom of the lake. Which adds nutrients for weed growth. I wonder why you have to keep paying more in chemical treatment??  People say dredging can be expensive but what if you pay $75,000 for 10 years for chemical control($750,000). Not to mention what you just put into the water. How much did it cost you?

HUESTON WOODS STATE PARK
6301 Park Office Road, College Corner
College Corner, Ohio 45003

Swamp Thing LLC assisted in installing pipeline across Action Lake, located at Hueston Woods State Park. Using a combination of our equipment to properly and efficiently complete this project. In 1967, the 200-acre forest was designated as a National Natural Landmark by the National Park Service. The outdoor enthusiast will find diverse opportunities at Hueston Woods State Park. Whether boating on Acton Lake, hiking through the 200-acre old growth forest or relaxing in the resort lodge, visitors will enjoy the finest of recreational facilities in southwest Ohio at this scenic park.

    

  
Areas had to be prepared and dredged before installing the pipeline. You can see below the pipe floating, we used our aquatic machines to help keep the pipe in place (especially during times of strong winds) before it was streched across the entire lake and then sank into place with cement ballist.

Floating fountains for lakes and ponds.

Floating fountains are not only beautiful but are also effective to keep the green away and provide aeration to the water. There are many options and styles. Easy set up - just add water. These water fountains are totally portable. Lights available too. Contact us for more style, design and pricing information via email

To ensure years of enjoyment from your lakefront or pond, a user-friendly maintenance plan is essential. Our people are dedicated to helping you gain the utmost benefit from your investment. Fish habitat, weeds control and water quality is all addressed through a consultation. 

Simply, by using a pond aeration system, you can move vast amounts of water per minute and at the same time improving the water quality and nutrient loads. Large or small ponds can be aerated to reduce the mosquito population. Stagnant water is where they like to lay their eggs.

 If your pond or lake is too shallow it might be too late for aeration, you may need to dredge first. Especially if you have had a fish kill or large amount of vegetation taking oxygen from your lake or pond. Fish Kills also can be a result of misuse of chemicals/herbicides.

Pond Aeration/aerating or decorative types

Water fountains add sight and sound to pond aeration. Everyone has different fountain needs ; decorative, aeration, controlling temperature or just for the sound and atmosphere they provide. From a deck or lawn chair to the fairways of golf clubs, water fountains have more to offer. Again, by  adding oxygen to the water, fish and water quality will be improved. Oxygen helps to generate beneficial bacteria that consume the nutrients algae uses to grow.

F250 floating aerator

New this year we have a very strong aeration fountain that works all year round, it offers 300 GPM, with only a ¼ or 1/20 hp motor. The pattern is about 2 feet high and 4 feet wide, with a 25’, 50’ or 100’ electrical cord. The unit will provide mass amounts of oxygen for degassing nutrients for pond water reducing algae and bottom sludge. It will work in as little as 16” of water, great for smaller ponds and owners that want to add something special to there back yard pond.

The F250 also works extremely well in winter ponds for swans, ducks, fish or other wildlife. Fish farmers can benefit from the low cost aeration for their trout rearing ponds.  They are also available with LED lights and timers, providing 10 colors and able to change through the colors providing you with great night time enjoyment!

 

 

The Aqua Blaster-pond aeration
Muck Removal: Blasts Muck and keeps floating debris away from your shore!   
VERY POWERFUL!      Multi-directional Underwater Thruster pushes floating weeds, debris, scum and green stuff away from your dock!  Reduces build-up on your boat hull/well!  Keep your swim area free of weeds that float in. 

2 Models to choose from:  Floating or Dock Mount
                                 A powerful motorized action pushes debris  50 feet or more, and can be easily adjusted to sweep in any direction - east, west, north or south. Angle it upward to aerator surface water. Move it up or down 5 feet on the adjustable mounting pole.  Pushes nearly 400 gallons of water per minute! 

Stagnant water is a major contributor to poor water and beach conditions.   Flowing water makes a dramatic improvement to your shoreline. Also excellent for stopping mosquito breeding areas in stagnant waters.  Used as a de-ice device for permanent docks and lifts.
