Aerating fountains are widely favored for their dual benefits: powerful aeration and a graceful, serene aesthetic. The North Star Fountain Aerator is no exception. Perfect for residential applications, the North Star for smaller ponds will delight during the day as well as at night when you add one of our color-changing lighting options. You can order light sets now or at a later time. All Scott Aerator products are built to withstand harsh conditions — no need for complicated or costly winterizing procedures. Simply shut off the power and leave your fountain or aerator in place. When spring arrives and the ice thaws, restore power, and it’s ready to run. Every component is engineered to endure subzero temperatures without damage.
