Army Navy Country Club confirmed today that it has installed two PondHawk solar powered pond aeration systems on its historic 4th and 5th holes.
“PondHawk is a new solution that keeps ponds beautiful without the cost of running electricity throughout our historic course.” said Robert Wilbur, Superintendent, Army Navy Country Club. “As a leader in golf course management, the installation of the PondHawk demonstrates our continued commitment to prudent fiscal management, excellence in facilities and our commitment to innovation and change.”
PondHawk (patented) is the first fully-integrated solar powered pond aeration system that delivers algae eliminating bubbles to any pond anywhere without the expense of power delivery costs, electricity and peak demand charges. PondHawk’s unique stealth and quiet design will not obstruct the beauty of the property and its battery-free technology operates in variable weather conditions with very low maintenance costs.
“It is our honor to have PondHawk tending the ponds at Army Navy Country Club.” said Sandra Burton, President and Co-Founder, LINNE Industries. “LINNE Industries respects the club’s military culture and heritage and we are privileged to provide our new United States manufactured fiscally prudent solution to this historically significant country club.”
