Eco-Force Suction Weed Harvester, Dredge & Skimmer

Eco-Force for LWH-01

The Eco-Force is the only harvester on the market that provides 3-in-1 suction weed harvesting, dredging, and skimming functionality. It was specifically engineered to address the inefficiencies of traditional lake weed harvesters. It is less than half the cost of the next closest dredger in its class, which only removes lake and pond bottom sediment.

The Eco-Force, outfitted with the multi-function head, can draw surface algae, duckweed, and floating weeds. Using the same intake screen, the Eco-Force will also suction harvest submerged lake and pond weeds which get shredded and discharged to the shoreline. In a matter of minutes, the surface screen can be removed to convert the unit for bottom weed, muck and silt removal. Starting at $57,900.00

Designed to be operated by one person, its intuitive controls allow the Eco-Force to maneuver effortlessly around piers, boat lifts, and shorelines. Because of this, you can operate in shallow water environments in as little as 10” of water and the rear anchor pipes create a pivot point for systematic dredging down to 10’ water depths.

Algae, duckweed, lake weeds, and muck are pumped directly to the shore or a dump trailer where they can be used as natural fertilizer or pumped to a silt fence containment area to be distributed later. This efficiency in lake weed and muck harvesting translates directly into improved water quality! Excess nutrients on lake and pond beds compounded by fertilization of lakeshore properties can be effectively managed by applying harvested lake nutrients directly to landscapes, addressing environmental concerns while improving your lake and pond health.

Simple and easy to operate, the Eco-Force is fabricated from aluminum which has a 6’ wide x 8’ long floating platform equipped with a 40-hp gas engine. The down-rigger can reach down to 10’ water depth and it weighs only 1,540 pounds. Pricing includes the flatbed transport trailer and we use internationally sourced components to ensure that replacement parts are readily available, minimizing downtime and costly repairs.

Its portable design combined with its 3-in-1 functionality make it the ideal solution for accessing and maintaining retention and golf course ponds, marinas, lake coves, ponds, channels, canals, and many of other tasks that other harvesters, dredgers, and excavators simply cannot access!

The Eco-Force features a lightweight, portable design that is as easy to launch as a small pontoon boat. Equipped with a high-torque suction boom and shredder, it processes debris up to 3 inches to clear dense weeds and muck without clogging. Combined with an attractive price point, it’s ideal for contractors, municipalities, conservation groups, and lake associations.
