"The De-Icer's high speed motor driven propeller brings the warmer deep water to the surface, maintaining open water. This will prevent your docks or boathouse from becoming damaged by the Ice. You can also use a De-Icer to maintain open water for water fowl and fish in your pond during the winter months. "

Fountains need to be removed from the water in the winter months to prevent damage to the unit. If a fountain is left in the water ice build-up could potentially cause the unit to become damaged. The Fountain should be placed in a bucket of water in a heated location during the winter to ensure the Motor stays lubricated. Aerators should be removed from the water during the winter months and stored the same as a fountain unless a de-icing kit has been purchased and the unit is being used as an Ice-Away, to prevent ice damage to docks and boathouses.
