The DeIcer immediately removes ice
It's easy to install and the de-icer performs as required, removing ice around my boat dock!

De-Icer Lives Up to Its Name
I use my de-icer to protect my 150' dock plus mooring piles on both sides from being lifted by rising tidal ice. I have seen my neighbors' docks trqnsformed into ski jumps while my dock remains level. When you consider the cost of replacing or resetting even one piling, the cost of protection with a de-icer is negligible. Plus, I sleep better every night.

Great Investment
I purchased the ¾ hp marine pump to remove ice around a stationary dock as well as a floating dock. This pump does an excellent job. We use the ropes included with the pump to mount it to the side of the stationary dock. The temp/time is a must have! I only run the pump for 10 hours/day saving lots of $$ on electricity.

Works great.
I have used a 3/4 HP now for three years. It has kept my boat lift and adjacent boat house ramp ice free even when the lake has been completely frozen over.

Can it be used in water were the water has a 3 foot tile change !

How can you order the item #74408 de-icer with a 50 ft. cord and how much more is it than the 25 ft. cord? Do extension cords work well to connect to a power supply about 50-100 ft away?
We do not offer a 50 ft corded version of the de-icer. According to the manufacturer, to run 100 ft, you would need a #10 wire extension cord to compensate for the voltage drop.

Are there water depth limits that could make this De-Icer ineffective or less effective? Water is too deep or too shallow?
