PondMeister Note:

For Aeration Sizing purposes, as a rough Rule-of-Thumb,  Kasco uses 1 HP for every Surface Acre of water.

One Surface Area of water is 43,560 square feet.

For example, if your pond is 100' x 100' you have 10,000 square feet of Surface Area. This would require a 1/4 HP Kasco Fountain
