Pond Haven Vanguard Hydro-Torque Solar Aeration System — 300W (180W Panel)

Bring reliable, maintenance-friendly oxygenation to your pond with the Vanguard Hydro-Torque Solar Series 300W Aeration System. Designed for longevity and energy independence, this solar aeration kit uses a 180W solar panel and a high-efficiency Hiblow air pump to maintain optimum dissolved oxygen levels for fish, plants and water clarity — without drawing from the grid.

Built for both shallow and deep installations, the Hydro-Torque 300W package is supplied with a pre-programmed inverter, battery protection, weatherproof IP65 aluminum housing and an attractive stone-style pump enclosure. The system is fully autonomous: it harvests solar energy to power the pump and runs on intelligent controls so you get consistent aeration, reduced algae risk, and improved pond health — all while saving on electricity costs.

Whether you’re upgrading existing aeration or adding aeration to floating Christmas tree displays or bottom aeration systems, the Vanguard Hydro-Torque 300W is engineered for dependable performance and easy setup. Backed by a 3-year warranty on solar and aeration components (and a 5-year warranty on solar components), it’s an investment in a healthy aquatic environment.

• Solar-powered autonomy — no recurring electricity costs.
