The Dock Mount De-Icer is designed to protect docks, boats, pilings, marinas, boathouses, and other waterfront structures from damaging winter ice. It creates continuous circulation by drawing warmer water from below the surface and directing it upward to help prevent ice formation.
The ⅓ HP 115V configuration moves approximately 300 gallons of water per minute and provides a water-flow distance of 40 feet. Its heavy-duty mounting system offers up to 7 feet of depth adjustment for positioning the unit below the water surface.
The oil-free, fully submersible motor is designed for continuous operation during severe winter conditions. Its stainless-steel and high-density polyurethane construction requires no oil changes, routine maintenance, or separate control box
