The people behind the windmills

A family business built around better pond aeration.

For decades, the Mescan family has helped pond owners put the wind to work. Today, we continue that hands-on tradition from our Ohio shop.


Built by people who know the product.

Joe Mescan started the family’s pond aeration business with a straightforward goal: help customers find dependable equipment and stand behind what he sells.

Keith carries that approach forward. He works directly with the windmills, customers, and day-to-day operations, so the advice you receive comes from firsthand experience.
