De-icer Sizing Guide
The effective open water diameter created by the de-icer varies based on air temperature and mounting orientation. Refer to the tables below for guidance.
4. సెటప్ మరియు ఇన్స్టాలేషన్
Proper installation ensures optimal performance and safety of your de-icer.
మౌంటు ఐచ్ఛికాలు
The Kasco De-icer can be installed using two primary methods: vertical rope suspension (included) or an optional universal mount.
Vertical Rope Suspension (Included)
- Warmer water is pulled up, creating an ice-free opening.
- Place 4-6 ft. below the surface and 1 ft. off the bottom for best results.
- Creates the largest ice-free area of protection.
Universal Mount (Optional, PN: 243485)
- Best in areas with waves, tides, or currents.
- Place 4-6 ft. below the surface and 1 ft. off the bottom.
- Simple Swivel allows easy rotation to direct water flow.
సాధారణ సంస్థాపన దశలు
- స్థానం: Determine the optimal location for the de-icer to protect your desired area. Consider water depth and proximity to the dock or boat.
- సస్పెన్షన్: Attach the provided mooring ropes to the de-icer unit. Securely fasten the other ends of the ropes to a stable structure, such as a dock or pier. Adjust rope lengths to position the de-icer 4-6 feet below the surface and at least 1 foot off the bottom.
- పవర్ కనెక్షన్: Route the power cord safely, avoiding pinch points or areas where it could be damaged. Plug the 25 ft electric power cord into a 120V GFCI-protected outlet.
- ప్రారంభ తనిఖీ: Once plugged in, the de-icer should begin operating, creating a noticeable water flow.
5. ఆపరేటింగ్ సూచనలు

- నిరంతర ఆపరేషన్: The unit is built for continuous operation throughout the winter season to maintain an ice-free area.
- నీటి ప్రవాహం: The de-icer's high-efficiency motor and propeller create a directional flow of water, pushing warmer bottom water to the surface. This action prevents ice formation and helps oxygenate the water, benefiting aquatic life.
- పర్యవేక్షణ: Periodically observe the de-icer's performance to ensure it is creating the desired open water area. Adjust positioning if necessary to optimize coverage.
6. నిర్వహణ
Regular maintenance helps ensure the longevity and efficient operation of your Kasco De-icer.
