Vacuum-dREDGING   PROJECTS

Aqua Plant Control's vacuum dredge is used for a variety of reasons!  It is used to remove loose sediments from pond bottoms; clean out drainge pipes & inflow sites; pond de-watering, as well as mechanical removal of algae & a host of other aquatic plants.  As holding ponds or storm water retention basins age, they become inundated with organic liter and sediments.  This overloading decreases the holding capacity and depth of a pond, as well as adversely effects the spawning habitat of a fishery.  Thse adverse effects will promote an unhealthy environment at the ponds bottom that is not suitable of all living fauna, or the base of the food chain.

Removing these contaminants and organic detritus will return the ponds back to their original design specification depths by increasing the holding capacity and preventing flood damage.  It will also have a desirable impact on all bottom dwellers in the profundal stage of the water column as it is more suitable for them to reproduce in.  A healthy base of a pyramid in a pond or lake equals a healthy top!  This vacuum-dredge is light weight and requires only an ATV to move it in-between homes or through tight places; it leaves no foot print.
It may look small in stature, but works just as well as the bigger units; it can remove up to 10 cubic yards in mere hours.  It has the potential to suck 3 inch solid matter, from 10 feet off of the pond bottom, 70 feet away from the dredge and dispose of that material over 240 feet away into a dumpster or a man made holding pond.

If you have the need to demuck a pond and cannot drain the pond or get large equimpent to your site, APC's mini vacuum-dredge
"The Great White Shark" is your tool of choice to get the job done!  Contact us today to learn more!
