At Aeration Jet Ltd, we specialise in ground care solutions, particularly soil aeration, for multiple applications. Our flagship product, the Aeration Jet Ground Aerator, is designed to address deep soil compaction issues for golf courses, sports fields, paddocks, racecourses, and vineyards.
The Aeration Jet Ground Aerator
Ourbest-in-class ground aeration machine is designed to enhance soil health by reducing soil compaction. The Aeration Jet rejuvenates dense soil, reduces water logging, and promotes growth by employing pressurised air through a jet that breaks up compacted soil. Aeration Jet enhances soil health and contributes to a more eco-friendly environment by reducing the necessity for chemical fertilisers and pesticides.
The Aeration Jet is a versatile solution not limited to garden lawns. It is designed to address deep soil compaction wherever it occurs, be it sports fields, orchards, vineyards, golf courses, or even car parks. Equipped with a hydraulic probe that injects high-pressure air into the soil, it effectively loosens compacted layers to enhance root growth and improve water infiltration. Its adaptability to different environments makes it a reliable solution for all your aeration needs.
Product Overview
The Aeration Jet Ground Aerator utilises a hydraulic probe to inject high-pressure air into the soil, effectively loosening compacted layers and enhancing root growth and water penetration. This machine is adjustable for depth control, making it suitable for diverse soil types and conditions. Key features include:
- 4-way aeration jet: Allows for effective air distribution.
- Maximum working depth of 500mm. Ideal for deep compaction issues.
- Lightweight design: Easy to manoeuvre with compact tractors.
- Versatile applications:Ideal for high-traffic areas prone to soil compaction.
- Mini TV: This shows the probe entering and exiting the ground.

Aeration Jet Applications
Golf Course Aeration
Regular aeration is crucial for maintaininghealthy turf on golf courses. The Aeration Jet system helps alleviate issues caused by constant foot traffic, heavy golf carts, and maintenance equipment. Improving oxygen levels in the soil and dispersing nutrients ensures healthier grounds for golfers and enhances the overall appearance of fairways and greens.
Aeration of Sports Fields
Overusing sports grounds often leads to soil compaction, poor drainage, and thatch build-up. The Aeration Jet system helpsmaintain the turf's health, improving its ability to recover from heavy use, particularly in high-traffic areas like goal mouths and eighteen-yard boxes.
Aeration of Paddocks and Racecourses
Horses' heavyweight and consistent use of these areas can lead to severe soil compaction over time.Aerating racecourses and paddocks with Aeration Jet help reduce this compaction, improve nutrient uptake, reduce erosion, and promote better animal grazing conditions.
Vineyards and Orchards
Soil compaction in vineyardscan significantly impact grape quality and vine health. The Aeration Jet system helps maintain soil structure, preventing waterlogging and ensuring proper nutrient distribution, essential for producing high-quality grapes and, ultimately, better wine.
Company Background
Aeration Jet Ltd was founded by Peter Knight, who established Bury Turfcare Ltd and Genny Wren Ltd and developed the well-known Oxyshot aerator product.
Peter's experience in the grass maintenance industry led him to recognise the importance of addressing soil compaction for optimal grass growth. This realisation prompted him to invest in his first verti drain in 1992, and he has since expanded his equipment range to include various sizes of aerators.
