HORSEPOWER OPTIONS

Choosing the right size AquaThruster™ blower motor depends on what you're trying to accomplish, how large of an area you want to clear, and how much muck, sludge, weeds, leaves, and debris you have on the surface and bottom of your lakefront.

All models except the 2 hp models come with the clog-resistant Sure-Flo Technology Aquaticlear Cage. A masterpiece of engineering to prevent debris buildup.

If you have questions or would like assistance regarding horsepower options, give us a call, start a chat, or send us a message. Once we understand your shoreline and current situation, we'll be able to suggest the most effective options for you.

MOUNT OPTIONS

DOCK PLATE MOUNT

The Dock Plate Mount connects to both the top and side of your dock using bolts. It's a great choice if you don't need to move it often.

• Ideal for wood & aluminum docks and people who are able to drill holes in the decking and side of their dock.
• The AquaThruster can easily be removed from the mount for easy storage.
• Can be used with or without the 360 Oscillator

DOCK POST MOUNT

The Dock Post Mount is a great option for docks that have posts that come up past the dock surface. It can quickly be mounted and relocated as needed to another dock post which helps maximize coverage area.

• Easy to move from post to post as needed!
• Fits square and round dock posts up to 4" wide.
• Can be used with or without the 360 Oscillator.

TRUSS DOCK MOUNT

This "sandwich style" mount attaches to the side of any truss-style dock. It can be moved anywhere around your dock very easily so you can cover more area effectively.

• Can be used with or without the 360 Oscillator.
• Easy to move from anywhere along the dock truss.
• Only compatible with truss docks.

360 BOTTOM FRAME MOUNT

The Portable Bottom Frame mount enables you to use your 360-degree oscillator without mounting it to a dock!

FREESTANDING FRAME MOUNT

This is a great option if you don't have a dock, you want to set up your AquaThruster away from your dock, or you're not planning on purchasing the 360 Oscillator. With this choice, you can cover more ground by simply moving it along the shoreline as needed.

This mount is not compatible with the 360 Oscillator.

Just Buy It - You won't be sorry

Posted by Bonnie C on 25th May 2017

We moved into a lake house in January of 2016. Imagine our disappointment when we were faced with so much MUCK. We wanted our swimming area clear...and wanted our guests to feel comfortable. Bought the Aqua Thruster in and Installed in April. VISIBLE and positive results within hours. We are very happy. The Post Mount model with oscillator is very easy to use and move around. Learning Curve hint... install it at end of dock... THEN work towards shallow...and back. Worked so well a neighbor just bought one...and another neighbor is planning to purchase asap. Stop spending money on things that don't work! The Aqua Thruster 360 is the answer!

This thing is awesome. I've only had it in the water for about a week and our lake bottom is now almost all sand. The sludge and muck is clearing up and we're really pleased with the product.

I have the 1 HP 115 volt model with oscillator. Put it on the side of our dock. It does a great job out to probably 50+ feet. Easy install and adjustment to oscillate. Definitely would buy again.

aqua thruster 3/4 HP with oscilator.

Can not run unit continuously be cause it makes a loud sucking noise in 3.5 feet of water at the deep end of dock. WEEDERS DIGEST RESPONSE: A. There two solutions that have proven to be successful methods of removing an Aquathruster's propensity to create a suction vortex. OPTION 1: The first and cheapest option is to cable tie the power cord tight to the bottom and side of the unit. To see images of how this is done visit the AquaThruster page on our website and scroll down to the FAQ section near the bottom. OPTION 2: is an anti-vortex plate which you can produce yourself for about $15 or purchase from Weeder's Digest for $30 plus $10 shipping. The plate is made from a 16" x 14" piece of 1/8" acrylic with four 1/4" holes drilled in it and attached to the top of the prop cage with two 12" cable ties.

Aqua Thruster

Posted by David S on 1st May 2017

Last year we purchased a new cabin, which has years of muck built up along the shore line. There is so much and it is so deep, removing it by hand is out of the question. It will probably take a couple months to get it close to where I like it, but so far (used for about 3 weeks) it is working nicely. There was a little learning curve, but it was not difficult. So far I am pleased with the results.
