Lake Deicers

A lake deicer is a device that prevents and removes ice by providing a continuous flow of warmer water to the surface of a lake or pond. It works by agitating and drawing warmer bottom water up to the colder water on the surface using a propeller driven by a small but powerful motor. These devices are also known as ice eaters and are used to keep a hole open in the ice, letting bad gases escape out of the pond. These gases come from exhaling fish and decomposing debris which would otherwise build up under the ice and suffocate your pond life.
