For golf courses & superintendents
Pond aeration and fountains for golf courses.
On a golf course, water features do two jobs at once: they define the look of a hole and they feed your irrigation. Koenders aeration and fountains help superintendents keep hazard and irrigation ponds clear and oxygenated, so water looks the part and stays workable through the season.

Fountains and aeration for course ponds
Every course pond is different in depth, shape and intake layout. See the fountains range, then request a recommendation and we will match a system to your water and where power is available.
The challenge
What superintendents deal with
Course ponds carry heavy nutrient loads from turf runoff and fertiliser, which drives the problems below.
Algae on visible holes
Nutrient-rich, still water grows algae and surface scum that show up on the holes members see most.
Irrigation intake fouling
Organic debris and low-oxygen bottom water can clog intakes and screens and reach heads and lines.
The algaecide treadmill
Repeat chemical treatments knock algae back for a while, then it regrows once the nutrients cycle again.
The approach
How aeration and fountains help
Both address the same root cause: still, stratified, low-oxygen water with nowhere for nutrients to go.
Aesthetics for playability
A fountain adds visible movement and clarity on feature holes while it circulates the water.
Cleaner irrigation water
Circulation and oxygen help keep the water column mixed, supporting cleaner draw at the intake.
Less reliance on chemicals
Sustained circulation targets the conditions algae thrive in, so you lean less on repeat algaecide.
Windmill, solar and electric aeration
Oxygen for every pond, on or off the grid
Koenders got its start in 1988 building wind-powered aeration for farm dugouts. Today that same rugged, low-operating-cost engineering carries across our full lineup of windmill, solar and electric systems, each matched to your pond size and power source, so water stays healthy on farms, acreages and remote sites across the continent.
From operators
Trusted on farms, courses and municipal water
“Our hazard ponds stay clear and healthy for play.”
“Our Koenders windmill has aerated this pond for over 20 years. Even after a long, cold winter there was no fish kill, and we still catch beautiful trout.”
“The before and after says it all — clear water on a 10-acre irrigation pond from a Koenders windmill and Nature's Pond Conditioner.”
“We've run a Koenders windmill for 10+ years. Our pond looked so good we held a wedding right next to it.”
“We saw a drastic difference in 7 weeks. The picture says it all — couldn’t be happier.”
“Nature's Pond Conditioner and our Koenders windmill are a great combination — clean, clear water and healthy, large rainbow trout.”
“Thanks to Koenders aeration and Nature's Pond Conditioner, we're able to enjoy ice fishing again this winter.”
“Great quality. My best friend and I put this windmill up in our retirement — no problems with parts, and it keeps the muck and algae down.”

Aeration systems, fountains and accessories: everything to keep your water healthy and moving through the season.
Aeration that fits a working course
Our angle here is aeration hardware for dissolved oxygen and circulation, not chemical treatments. We size a system to each pond rather than a generic acreage rule, and it pairs well with a natural pond-care program when you want to go further on clarity and muck.
- Aeration adds oxygen and circulation without adding chemicals to the water
- Sized to each pond's depth and layout, including where power is available
- Fountain and aeration options for both aesthetics and water quality
- Parts and support available across North America
