I have a 2000 gallon koi pond pond. I understand that I can purchase more de-icers, but will one do the trick?
Answer by • Oct 27, 2018
The surface area of your pond will determine the amount of de-icers you may need. It's recommended to use 1 de-icer per every 150 square feet of surface area.
Will this keep my fish warm?
Answer by • Aug 24, 2019
This de-icer is not meant to keep your fish warm and are not pond heaters. There is no need to raise the water temperature of the pond during the winter. It is only important to keep a small area of the surface ice-free.
Can this be used in a baby pool? Is it safe to sit against the plastic? Looking to buy this for my ducks for the winter so they can still access the pool if wanting to
Answer by • Sep 22, 2018
It's not recommended to use this de-icer in a baby pool because it needs to be grounded. Grounding is the act of connecting a conductor, or exposed conductive parts of an installation, to the earth.
I bought this for a small 150 gallon yard pond . It seems to be warming up the pond not just de icing . I thought it was supposed to have a thermostat to turn off before it made the water warm. Could it be that it’s too large for the size of our pond?
Answer by • Jan 12, 2021
The manufacturer recommends this de-icer for a pond measuring a minimum of 150 square feet of surface area. The internal thermostat will turn on when the internal temperature of the unit drops to a certain temperature, and then turn off when it reaches the max internal temperature of 89.6. It does not read the water temperature, and so it may operate even during warm times. It is best to only plug it in when the temps are going to be freezing or colder. It should not be plugged in unless the air temperatures will be below 32 degrees.
