SURVIVABLE Solar Powered Aeration Systems by Pennington Equipment Company

With the arrival of two hurricanes in August 2008, and a third one, Hurricane Ike, bearing down on Florida, the managers of the state's water control system are increasingly forced to choose between their dual objectives. They want to keep the ecosystem, including the estuaries on both coasts and the Everglades, in as natural a state as possible, and they want to save lives and keep property from flooding. In this heavy hurricane season, accomplishing both objectives is increasingly difficult. ''When a hurricane goes through, an estuary can see raw sewage coming in, and that can change an ecosystem for years,'' said Fred H. Sklar, the chief environmental scientist with the South Florida Water Management District. Algae blooms, a sign of water overrich in nutrients, are likely to appear, and fish kills in oxygen-depleted waters are possible, Mr. Sklar said. "Even without hurricanes, water management in south Florida creates winners and losers, or at least a sense of grievance among some of those affected. Water management for the benefit of Miami-Dade and Broward County, and for the sugar cane farms at the northern end of the Everglades has prompted the Miccosukee Indian Tribes to purchase solar powered and wind powered aeration systems to establish  survivable pockets of dissolved oxygen (DO) necessary  in a 6.5 acre lake." Gintas Zavadzkas of the  Miccosukee Tribe purchased windmill aerators, floating aerators, and shore mounted aerators of all types and mounted them  side by side, to find a sustainable aeration system for the everglades. "After this last hurricane, only the PEC shore mounted EKBS-10 SolAerators were still found surviving and aerating. " The windmills helicoptered away, the floating units overturned and sank to the bottom, and the larger shore mounted solar systems sailed off into the heavens. PEC SolAerators not only offer sustainableaeration.com, they were the only units still aerating the oxygen-depleted waters after the storms. At best, aeration only creates pockets of survivable water in the huge lake. The windmills and floating platforms toy motors and pumps with 3-6 month warranties or the sunlight only or strong breeze only aerators will not do the job. Only the SolAerator offers Survivable.biz aeration because it can offer: 24/7 aeration  with  up to 4 days of backup power without sunlight. 2 years of oil free motor warranty. 1 year oil free pump diaphragm warranty. 1 year "bumper to bumper" warranty on all parts. 5* year depreciated repair vs. replacement warranty on all parts.
