Cada charca, lago, o cuerpo de agua es único y no cada método o uso de la aireación trabajará en cada charca. Es importante hablar con alguien que tiene experiencia y conocimiento de los dispositivos de aireación para ayudar a decidir qué método es el mejor para usted. A menudo, las situaciones varían según la región geográfica, así que hablar con un experto local de gestión de estanques es muy útil. A continuación se muestran algunos elementos a tener en cuenta al comprar dispositivos de aireación.

• Mantenimiento – How much work are you going to have to do to keep this running properly?

• Seguridad – Many of these devices have electricity in the water. Make sure to check all safety recommendations and buy equipment that is approved by organizations such as UL, CSA, or ETL.

• Simple – Some devices can be very difficult to use and time consuming to assemble and install. Make sure you know what you are getting into.

• Momento – Check with your supplier of the aeration device on lead times for equipment. Some equipment can include substantial lead times which could cause problems when your fish and pond need aeration badly.

• Apoyo y asistencia – Choosing an aeration device from a company that provides knowledgeable and helpful information on CORRECT sizing, maintenance, technical support, etc. is a major benefit when deciding on aeration.

• Costos – Some equipment can be quite costly, not only with initial purchase, but operating costs. Make sure you budget properly and find out how much the equipment will cost to buy and operate.
