Product catalog summary
Introduction to Turf Aeration
Aeration is a crucial cultivation practice for maintaining healthy turf, especially in high-traffic and low-mowed areas. It provides benefits such as compaction relief, improved drainage, enhanced oxygen levels in the soil, deeper root growth, and better nutrient uptake.

Soil Basics
Soil productivity is determined by the interaction of physical, biological, and chemical systems. The physical condition of the soil is vital for efficient biological and chemical activity, which supports plant life.

Importance of Soil Tilth
Soil tilth refers to the balance of air, mineral, water, and organic matter in the soil. Compaction disrupts this balance, restricting air and water movement, which impairs root growth and reduces crop production.

Mechanical Aeration with AerWay
AerWay provides effective aeration by managing water movement through the soil, enhancing infiltration and percolation rates. Deep aeration with AerWay Shattertine is recommended once or twice a year, while venting aeration with Sportstine or Finetine should be scheduled every 2 to 3 weeks.

Causes and Effects of Compaction
Compaction is caused by heavy rainfall and high traffic loads, leading to reduced pore space and impaired air and water movement. Relieving compaction increases pore space, reduces bulk density, and enhances nutrient movement and root growth.

AerWay Tine Options
AerWay offers various tine options for different turf areas:
  • Shattertine®: For roughs, fairways, and sports fields, it fractures soil to improve air, water, and nutrient movement.
  • Sportstine®: For sports fields and fairways, it provides fast and economical venting aeration.
  • Finetine®: For greens and fine turf, it relieves surface compaction without disrupting play.
  • Super Finetine®: Used for thatch management and maintaining infiltration rates.
  • Coring Tine: Ideal for dethatching and preparing soil for topdressing and overseeding.


Design Your Own Aerator
AerWay offers customizable aerators with options for frame style, tine selection, and additional features like smoothing rollers and ballast tanks.

Conclusion
Regular treatment with AerWay can significantly improve soil conditions, leading to healthier turf and increased yield potential.

TURF AERATION-2

Jerry Richard - Golf Course Superintendent, Oxford Golf & Country Club, Woodstock, Ontario Aeration, while it is one of the most despised operations by golfers, is probably the single most beneficial cultivation practice that you can do on turf, especially high traffic, low mowed turf. The benefits include compaction relief and subsequently reduced stress to turf, improved drainage, added oxygen to the soil, deeper roots, incorporation of topdressing materials, break down of surface tension and relief from hydrophobic soil conditions and more effective and efficient nutrient uptake by the plant....

TURF AERATION-3

AERWAY ®INCREASES SOIL TILTH FOR EFFICIENT ROOT GROWTH Air and Water Move Together Correcting compaction makes a dramatic improvement in soil tilth. It is the most basic step you can take to promote healthy turf grass. That’s because air and water move together in the soil profile. With proper air / water balance in the soil, all the biological and chemical systems work at peak efficiency. Compaction makes both wet and dry soil conditions more severe. It reduces the water holding capacity of soil which makes drought conditions worse, and inhibits drainage to make wet conditions more troublesome....

TURF AERATION-4

THE CAUSES AND RESULTS OF COMPACTION REGULAR TREATMENT WITH AERWAY CAN TURN YOUR SOIL AROUND Rainfall Heavy rainfall disrupts the smallest particles on the surface and forces them into pore spaces near the surface creating layers of compaction. Equipment and Foot Traffic High traffic loads break down soil particles and forces them together. This reduces the pore space needed for air and water movement. The effect is worse in wet conditions when particles move more freely. Standing water is a visible sign of compaction. Compaction Relieved • Increased pore space • Reduced bulk density • Increased...

AERWAY’S LOW COST, LOW MAINTENANCE, LONG LASTING OPTIONS FOR TURF AERATION SHATTERTINE® – For use on roughs, fairways, tees and sports fields. Patented AerWay® Shattertines® lift and fracture tough soil to increase air, water and nutrient movement. Moving over the surface of the ground, the unique angles and offsets of the Shattertines crack and shatter compacted soil 7 inches and deeper, resulting in increased water percolation, microbial activity and fertilizer utilization. Plants respond with stronger root systems and healthier top growth. SPORTSTINE® – For use on sports fields, fairways,...

AerWay*) Greens Express Smoothing Roller The AerWay® Greens Express smoothing roller option allows the operator to lift the roller completely off the ground to leave the aeration holes open, or adjust tine penetration in less than one inch increments, or support the tined roller completely out of the ground for use exclusively as a smoothing roller. Adjustable Roller Feature On certain AerWay® models, the user has the ability to offset the rollers of the Shattertine® equipped units for renovation purposes. This can be accomplished by changing two bolts on the outboard end of each roller. The...
