Visual Circulation is the Next Evolution in Natural Water Movement

Multi-acre surface movement you can see.
Atmospheric oxygen exchange you can measure.
Efficiency you can trust.

Water Movement, Reimagined

The Big Bubble Circulation Pump (BBCP) creates massive circulation and atmospheric gas exchange, transforming stagnant water into a living ecosystem.

Large bubbles draft oxygen-depleted water vertically and propel it across the surface. Visible ripples expand across multiple acres for complete coverage.
How the Big Bubble Circulation Pump Works

How It Works

1. Controlled Updraft

Large sequential bubbles rise from the bottom drafting colder oxygen-depleted water upward in a narrow controlled column with minimal side-mixing.

2. The Piston Effect

As the upwelled water reaches the surface, it is propelled up into a large dome which then collapses leveraging gravity to convert vertical displacement into horizontal movement. 

3. Visible Ripples

A deep, expanding ripple field spreads outward across multiple acres continuously renewing the surface, enhancing atmospheric oxygen exchange, and naturally managing sunlight.

Lakes & Large Ponds

Natural multi-acre visual circulation and surface exchange.

Community Lakes

Improves surface conditions without noise, spray, or disruption.

Municipal Lagoons

Supports oxygen exchange while preserving lagoon structure.

Golf Courses & Parks

Quiet, efficient, aesthetic surface movement for public spaces.

Docks & Shorelines

Targeted surface movement to keep high-use areas healthy and free or debris.

Facultative Ponds

Enhances atmospheric gas exchange while maintaining facultative stratification.
