Paragon Vineyards Aerators

Paragon Vineyards in California needed a way to handle wastewater from the winery and provide irrigation for the vineyard. An aerated lagoon was the answer. However, stainless steel aerators are costly, and galvanizing was a less expensive option that didnï¾t sacrifice efficiency. The aerators were specified for a duplex system of galvanizing and paint to increase their corrosion protection. The aerators are in a very harsh environment, which includes wastewater treatment products and the humid Pacific Coast climate. The duplex coating stands up to the harsh environment, affords the customer a longer product life than galvanizing or painting alone, and costs less than using stainless steel. The duplex coated aerators will help the Paragon Vineyards continue to thrive for many generations.
