Anyone know if the fountains in the lake will be turned on again?

Thanks.

I'don't have that answer,however this time of year it is not necessary to aerate the water. The water temperature is sufficiently cold enough that algae growth is not an issue.  It is simply a matter of looks, not effectiveness.  Think of the money we're saving.

The aerators are not for the algae growth. It is designed to oxygenate the water so we do not have a CO2 layer form at the lower depths.  This layer can get large enough to create and inversion and kill all our fish. I highly recommend that the aerators be turned on again.

The two aerators trip the circuit breaker after about four seconds of operation.

They are in need of an electrician, with a boat.
