The Farm Innovators Floating Pond De-Icer is designed to keep your decorative water garden free of potentially harmful surfaces forming ice in cold climates. A virtually indestructible cast aluminum body houses the powerful 1,250-watt heating element which quickly opens a hole in the surface of your pond allowing harmful gases to escape. The Farm Innovators Floating Pond Deicer is thermostatically controlled and turns on only when temperatures drop below 35°F. The Farm Innovators Floating Pond De-Icer comes with a 10' power cord and is safe for rubber and plastic liners.
