Description
1/2 HP Stratus Dual Rocking Compressor System - 6 Diffusers (DCS56)
Revitalize your lake or large pond with the 1/2 HP Stratus Dual Rocking Compressor System. This high-capacity aeration package is engineered for demanding 24/7 operation, utilizing two powerful 1/4 HP Gen 2 rocking piston compressors to feed six independent diffusers. By distributing air across multiple points, this system effectively eliminates "dead zones," reduces muck buildup, and prevents thermal stratification in water bodies of up to several acres.
The "Dual" design offers professional-grade redundancy and massive air volume, making it the premier choice for HOAs, golf courses, and large private estates.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Dual-Compressor Power: Features two independent 1/4 HP Stratus Gen 2 rocking piston compressors, providing a high CFM output that can handle depths up to 30 feet.
-
Redundancy & Reliability: With two compressors, your water body stays oxygenated even during maintenance intervals, ensuring your fish and ecosystem are never at risk.
-
Six-Point Aeration: Includes six high-efficiency diffusers, allowing you to strategically place air stations across a large area for uniform oxygen distribution and maximum circulation.
-
Oil-Less "Gen 2" Technology: Specifically designed for continuous duty with an oil-less design, ensuring no hydrocarbons enter your water.
-
Safe Shore-Mounted Design: No electricity enters the water. The compressors sit safely on shore in an optional cabinet (sold separately) and pump air through weighted tubing to the bottom-mounted diffusers.
-
Superior Durability: Built with high-quality internal components and permanently lubricated bearings to withstand the rigors of year-round lake management.

Why Use a 6-Diffuser System?
Large lakes often suffer from localized oxygen depletion. A single-point aerator may clear the area immediately around it, but corners and shallow bays can still suffer from algae and foul odors. The Stratus DCS56 allows you to spread six diffusers across your lake, creating a "curtain" of air that lifts cold, nutrient-rich water to the surface for gas exchange, resulting in crystal-clear water and a healthier environment for aquatic life.
