K & H Thermo-Pond Perfect Climate Heater
Versatile Winter Protection for Small and Preformed Ponds
The K & H Thermo-Pond™ Perfect Climate Heater is the ultimate solution for pond owners looking to protect their aquatic life during freezing winter months. Specifically designed with small and preformed ponds in mind, this heater provides a reliable way to maintain a hole in the ice, allowing toxic gases to escape and life-sustaining oxygen to enter the water.
What sets the Perfect Climate apart is its dual-purpose design. It can be placed directly on the bottom of a pond as a submersible heater, making it ideal for shallow preformed ponds (18 inches deep or less). Alternatively, when paired with the Float Attachment (sold separately), it transforms into a floating de-icer suitable for larger ponds of any size.
Key Features:
-
Energy Efficient: Operates at only 300 watts, providing effective ice melting without a heavy hit to your utility bill.
-
Dual-Mode Operation: Use it as a submersible heater for shallow areas or a floating de-icer for deeper ponds (float attachment sold separately).
-
Safe for All Ponds: Designed to be safe for use in preformed ponds and flexible liners; it will not burn or damage pond surfaces.
-
Thermostatically Controlled: Automatically turns on when temperatures approach freezing and shuts off when not needed, saving energy and preventing overheating.
-
Integrated Pump Inlets: Features specialized inlets that allow it to be used in conjunction with air or water pumps for enhanced circulation.
-
Generous Reach: Includes a 15-foot heavy-duty power cord for easy installation even in large backyard setups.
