Ultrasonic Pond Algae Control
Welcome to Sonic Algae Control!
If your dealing with a pond algae problem right now you've come to the right place. Ultrasonic technology is fairly new in the United States but it's been used worldwide for several years to control algae blooms in all sizes of ponds.
Picture in your mind, and opera singer hitting that high, sustained pitch that when it's just right, the crystal glass shatters into a hundred pieces. Ultrasonic waves basically do the same thing to algae.
The LG Sonic sytems are tuned to zero in and produce frequency waves that are highly targeted to damage the cellular wall of many types of algae. What your looking at in the photo sequence below is the condition of a string of algae cells under a microscope. On the left is the untreated algae and moving to the right you'll see the effects of ultrasonic vibrations.

The end result? Dead algae that's been reduced and eliminated without the use of harsh chemicals or algaecides!
When going "green" is more important than ever, sonic algae control is moving into the mainstream when it comes to keeping your pond clean and clear.
Ultrasonic systems can work in unison with other pond mechanicals like aeration systems or UV filtration. Beneficial bacteria, which is a popular choice for reducing organic sediment in a pond, can also be used quite effectively with sonic sytems. In fact, the ultrasonic waves that are so deadly to most species of algae actually help to supercharge or stimulate the bacteria, helping it work better.
The LG Sonic lineup has a device to fit nearly any size of pond. Use the SSS unit for smaller ponds, water gardens, and koi ponds up to 33 feet in length. The Tank can work well in industrial settings and provides coverage up to 98 feet. The XL and XXL systems are unsurpassed in their ability to treat very large bodies of water effectively. And finally, perhaps the most unique product is the Pool, which can be used to reduce chlorine usage in a swimming pool by up to 2/3, and it can work in olympic sizeds pools.
