Diffused Air De-Icing Systems: Protect your dock from costly ice damage
Diffused air de-icing systems are an excellent choice for keeping water open during the winter around boat lifts, docks, piers, marinas and other structures. Damage repair and labor costs to remove or install your dock every year can be expensive. For just a few dollars in energy per month, a diffused air system will maintain open water and protect your dock from ice damage.
A minimum of 3Â feet-deep water is needed for diffused air to be effective as a deicer. Deep water=larger hole kept open.
Hole size is determined by water depth and air temperature, be sure to size your system appropriately to your project. Please call us with any questions, Midwest Ponds will gladly help you pick out the best unit for your conditions. 833-779-2837
