Vanguard Water Creations

The Vanguard Hydro-Torque Solar Series ($4,049) is a complete off-grid aeration system. It includes a solar panel that generates power during the day, a battery pack that stores charge for continuous operation, an aeration compressor, and pond-bottom membrane diffusers.

No shore-side electrical outlet required. Best for farm ponds, remote country properties, and pond installations where trenching mains power to the water is impractical or expensive. The battery pack provides enough capacity for continuous overnight operation in most climates and orientations.

The Majestic Floating LED Christmas Tree ($3,596) is a fully-assembled floating tree with programmable red, green, and white LED colors that anchors on any pond as a holiday centerpiece — a true Christmas tree on water. The tree is engineered for outdoor use on residential ponds, HOA community lakes, corporate campus water features, and municipal holiday displays.

Sizes and configurations available; specifics are listed on the product page. Every unit ships with the floating base, LED tree structure, controller, and anchor kit for a straightforward install.

Match the aerator to your pond and power availability:

Vanguard Typhoon Floating Display ($1,079): Surface aerator with decorative spray. Best when you want both aeration and a fountain-look spray in one unit. Requires shore-side 115V outlet.

Vanguard Bottom Aeration ($1,439): Diffused bottom aeration. Best for deeper ponds (over 8 ft) where bottom-to-surface circulation is the water-quality goal. Requires shore-side 115V outlet.

Vanguard Hydro-Torque Solar ($4,049): Off-grid solar aeration. Best for remote ponds without shore-side electrical service.

The Vanguard Pond Spa Surface Aerator/De-Icer ($1,079) keeps a hole open in pond ice through winter by continuously circulating warmer water from below the ice up to the surface. In extreme cold climates (northern US, Canada), size the de-icer to the pond and consider running multiple units for larger surface areas.

The de-icer serves two purposes: (1) keeps a hole for gas exchange (essential for fish health under ice) and (2) protects docks, piers, and shoreline structures from ice-heave damage.

Yes. The Vanguard Fountain LED Lighting Kit ($404) is designed as a universal-fit accessory that pairs with the Vanguard Hydro-Torque fountain AND works on most other brand floating fountains with a standard float configuration.

Choose between RGBW color-changing (for programmable seasonal colors and events) or classic warm white (for elegant permanent nighttime illumination). Both variants ship with the LED lamps, mounting hardware, controller, and outdoor-rated cabling.

Most Vanguard products run on standard 115V single-phase outdoor GFCI power. This includes the Typhoon Display aerator, Bottom Aeration System, Hydro-Torque Fountain, Spa De-Icer, and the LED Lighting Kit.

The Hydro-Torque Solar aerator is the exception: it runs entirely off solar power and does NOT require shore-side electrical service. The Majestic Floating LED Christmas Tree uses low-voltage outdoor power adapter, plugs into a standard 115V outdoor GFCI outlet.

Most in-stock Vanguard products ship within 3 to 7 business days with free U.S. shipping included. Transit is usually 3 to 7 business days after that. Total order-to-doorstep is typically 2 to 3 weeks.

The Majestic Floating LED Christmas Tree is seasonal-inventory and often has longer lead times outside the October to December window. Order early for holiday delivery. Contact us at (470) 354-1969 for current stock status on any Vanguard item.

Vanguard offers manufacturer warranties on the aeration systems (compressor, cabinet, diffusers), the Hydro-Torque fountain motor, the Spa de-icer motor, the LED lighting kits, and the Majestic Christmas tree LED array and float.

Specific warranty terms per product are listed on each product page. All warranties are direct from the manufacturer and Pro Pond Supply handles claims as the authorized dealer.

The Vanguard Hydro-Torque Solar ($4,049) is the only true off-grid solar aeration option in the Pro Pond Supply catalog. Compared to peer aeration systems:

Vertex XL2 diffused aeration ($2,731-$6,913): Premium diffused aeration engineering for pond-quality goals. Requires shore-side electrical.

Kasco Robust-Aire diffused: Commercial-grade Wisconsin-built diffused aeration. Requires shore-side electrical.

Vanguard Solar Hydro-Torque: The pick when there is no accessible electrical service near the pond and running mains power is impractical or expensive.

Yes for most products. The Typhoon Display, Hydro-Torque Fountain, Spa De-Icer, and LED Lighting Kit all install with basic pond-owner tools: uncoil the cord to a shore-side GFCI outlet, tether the unit with anchor rope, plug in and run.

The Hydro-Torque Solar aerator involves solar panel siting (needs south-facing exposure for full sun), battery pack placement, and diffuser install on the pond bottom. Slightly more involved but still DIY-appropriate for handy pond owners. Detailed install manual ships with the system.

The Majestic Christmas Tree ships fully-assembled and requires only float placement and anchor tie-off plus one 115V power connection.
