Scott Aerator Dock Mount Aquasweep Muck Blaster

Scott Aerator Dock Mount Aquasweep Muck Blaster

Improve the quality of your waterfront, dock area, or canal with the Dock Mount Aquasweep Muck Blaster. This powerful device effectively removes algae, trash, and decaying debris from the surface, as well as blasting muck, silt, and decaying leaves from the bottom. Say goodbye to sediment buildup and enjoy cleaner, healthier water with ease.

The Aquasweep is designed to eliminate decaying bottom muck and floating surface algae by using high-velocity water propulsion to push debris 50 feet or more away from your swimming area and boat lift. It is suitable for both fresh and salt water and can fully adjust in any direction, making it the perfect solution.

The Aquasweep includes a stainless steel mounting plate suitable for a variety of dock designs, as well as an optional dock post mounting bracket for attachment to a post or pole. It also features a stainless steel yoke assembly that can reach depths of up to 7 feet. For added convenience, a free-standing post option is also offered, eliminating the need for a dock.

The Aquasweep features a durable, 50-foot 12-gauge submersible power cable and a sturdy, water-resistant marine-grade plug. With a powerful 3450 rpm, this product is powered by a top-notch Franklin electric motor that is fully submersible and available in both 115-volt and 230-volt options. As with all Scott Aerator Company products, the Aquasweep comes with an unconditional, 5-year warranty for its motor.

Compare the Aquasweep with other products to see why it surpasses the competition in both performance and quality. Don't be fooled by imitators. 
Here are some of the differences:

• The competition's thruster requires oil to be added and changed frequently. The Aquasweep is maintenance free, and it's engineered for all water types and temperatures.
• The Aquasweep runs at 3450 rpms and has a 48 lb. thrust rating on the 1/2-hp model. The other guys, even utilizing their 1-hp motor, runs at under 2000 rpms. This amounts to the Aquasweep moving a much larger volume of water per hour, which means quicker results.
• The Aquasweep is designed to control where debris goes, theirs scatters debris in every direction, much like an outboard motor.
• The water intake shield on the Aquasweep keeps debris out, and the automatic thermal overload shut down prevents motor damage in case water flow is restricted.
• The Aquasweep, including its motor, is manufactured with American-made stainless steel. The other units out there utilize galvanized metal and aluminum.
• The Aquasweep comes standard with an unconditional, 5-year motor warranty. The others offer a 2-year, limited warranty.
• The Aquasweep has been proven to blast muck and silt for more than 20 years. All of the imitations have been on the market for just 5 years.
