K&H Thermo-Pond Perfect Climate Deluxe Pond Deicer

This winter pond deicer is designed to maintain an open area in the ice, allowing harmful gases to escape and oxygen to enter during freezing conditions. Rather than heating the entire pond, it keeps the water temperature just above freezing, supporting fish health without disrupting natural winter dormancy.

The unit features automatic thermostat control and can be used either as a floating deicer or converted to a submersible configuration in seconds. Built for continuous winter operation, it is engineered with a strong focus on electrical safety, long-term reliability, and ease of use.

Why Choose K&H Thermo-Pond Perfect Climate Deluxe Pond Deicer?

• Thermostatic Control: Automatically turns on and off to prevent ice formation without overheating.
• Fish and Liner Safe: Safe for all pond fish, liners, and plastic or rubber pond shells.
• Flexible Installation: Easily switches between floating and submersible use.
• Multiple Wattages: Available in different power levels to match pond size and climate zones.
• Certified Safety: Fully safety certified as a complete product, exceeding standard component-only testing.

Winter Operation Notes

This deicer is designed to maintain water just above freezing and cannot be adjusted to higher temperatures. It must remain in the water at all times during operation. Foam formation around the unit is normal and caused by temperature differences in the water. This foam is harmless and non-toxic.

Care and Setup Guidelines

• Keep the heating element free from mineral buildup to avoid GFCI trips or shutdowns.
• Do not operate the unit when the heating element is exposed to air.
• If ice has already formed, melt a hole using an ice auger or water-filled container - never chop ice.
• Always plug into a properly grounded outlet and avoid permanent extension cord use.

PRO TIP

Clean leaves and organic debris from the pond before winter. Decaying material reduces oxygen levels under ice, and even the best deicer cannot compensate for poor water conditions going into winter.
