Scott Aerator Floating AquaSweep™
Floating Surface-Current System for Algae & Debris Control
The Scott Aerator Floating AquaSweep™ is a high-performance, floating water circulation system designed to keep docks, shorelines, canals, and waterfront areas free of floating algae, leaves, trash, and organic debris. By creating a powerful, directional surface current, the Floating AquaSweep pushes unsightly debris away from problem areas and toward locations where it can be easily collected and removed.
Unlike dock-mounted models designed for bottom maintenance, the Floating AquaSweep is engineered specifically for surface debris control. Its floating design automatically adapts to changing water levels, tidal movement, and weather conditions while maintaining consistent performance.
Constructed from rugged stainless steel and a high-density polyurethane float, the Floating AquaSweep is built for long-term durability and is fully approved for saltwater use. Like all Scott Aerator products, it features a maintenance-free, oil-free motor and is backed by an industry-leading 5-year unconditional motor warranty.

Important Use & Safety Information
The Floating AquaSweep is designed to create a strong surface current only. It does not adjust down to the bottom and is not intended for muck removal. For bottom maintenance and sediment control, a Dock-Mounted AquaSweep should be used instead.
- GFCI-protected outlet required
- Disconnect power when swimmers are present
