K&H Pet Products Floating Pond De-Icer

The K and H Thermo-Pond is an incredibly unique and patented pond heater. It's designed to keep a hole in the ice of your backyard ponds, and it does so at an extremely low cost - just pennies a day! This heater is perfect for ponds with a capacity of up to 1000 gallons. In fact, it's the world's most energy - efficient pond heater out there. It's the top - selling and most efficient low - wattage pond de - icer. Using only 100 Watts, it maintains a hole in the ice daily for mere pennies. Compared to high - wattage stock tank style de - icers, Thermo - Pond can save you up to $30.00 a month on electricity. That means it can pay for itself in as little as 2 months. This heater floats on the water's surface and is thermostatically controlled to never get hot. It's completely safe to use with pond liners or plastic ponds. It's also fish - friendly, helping to release toxic gases throughout the winter to maintain a healthy environment for fish under the ice. It has been tested in northern Wisconsin at temperatures as low as 30° below zero Fahrenheit and is MET listed for safety. Unlike some other heaters, Thermo Pond won't burn your pond liner or plastic pond. It lets the pond ice over naturally while keeping a hole in the ice. This gas exchange helps create a healthier pond environment in winter. Just make sure to use it in ponds deep enough to provide livable water under the ice.

Using the K&H Pet Products Floating Thermostatic Pond De - Icer is easy. First, place it on the surface of your backyard pond. It'll float on its own and start working right away. Remember, this de - icer is made for ponds up to 1000 gallons, so make sure your pond fits that size. When it comes to safety, it's thermostatically controlled, so you don't have to worry about it getting too hot and damaging your pond liner or plastic pond. This is also great for your fish, as it helps get rid of toxic gases in the water. During winter, keep an eye on the ice and the hole the de - icer maintains. If the pond is very large, you might need to check if the hole is big enough for proper gas exchange. As for maintenance, it's pretty low - key. Just make sure to clean it occasionally to keep it running smoothly. If you live in an area with extremely cold temperatures like in northern Wisconsin, don't worry, it's been tested in such conditions. However, if you notice any problems or if it stops working, you can always refer to the MET listing for safety information and contact the manufacturer.
