Windmill or Solar Control Switch
Would you like to take advantage of alternative energy aeration and still have aeration 24 hours a day? Our new Windmill or Solar Control Switch utilizes an air pressure sensor to regulate your aeration needs. It has a 15-second delay to prevent damage to your aeration system because of over-cycling. If the wind stops blowing, this Windmill or Solar Control Switch will turn on your electric aeration system. If the wind blows, it shuts off your electric aerator allowing you to save money and electricity. This system takes all the stress out of using both wind and electric aeration by monitoring the air pressure and switching between systems as needed.
- Easy to install. Just attach the “T” valve to your windmill airline, plug it in, then plug your electric aerator into the control box.
- 15-second delay to prevent over-cycling.
- You only need one airline running out to your pond. Both the windmill and electric aerator are connected to the same airline saving you money.
- One-year manufacturer’s warranty Windmill or Solar Control Switch
Why install a Windmill or Solar Control Switch?
A Windmill or Solar Control Switch allows you to use the benefits of windmill aeration when the wind is blowing at least 3 miles per hour. The control box allows you to switch to electric aeration when the wind is not blowing. This helps you save money by not having your electric aeration system running 24/7 but still having the confidence to know your system can run all the time. This system allows you to save money since you only need to run one airline out into your pond. When you install this control box, you can feel good about protecting the environment by using wind power to aerate your pond and still have around-the-clock aeration using electricity as a backup.
