Ice-Away De-Icer
If you’re looking for the highest quality de-icer available, then you’ve come to the right place thanks to the new Ice-Away De-Icer! Outdoor Water Solutions developed their innovative de-icer in 1967 and used a patented motor mount/diffuser and scientifically engineered prop to lift 500 gallons of water per minute. This pushes water upwards while drawing warmer water from below. Our uniquely designed diffuser redirects the water flow outward creating a larger area of coverage. The Ice-Away is capable of keeping an 8′ diameter area of water open for every foot of propeller depth. The average suspended depth is approximately 5′ up to 8′ deep.
What’s best about this system is that it’s oil free. Most of the de-icers on the market use an oil-filled motor which has the potential to leak oil into your pond or lake should a seal fail. These motors are an upgraded water-cooled motor so no oil is required.
