What size pond de-icer do I need?

The short answer

It depends on the pond, and Pipestone Farm Supply carries four K&H models. The 100-watt Thermo-Pond 3.0 is rated for up to 1,000 gallons to hold one hole open. The 250-watt Deluxe fits ponds up to 100 gallons on K&H's chart. The 300-watt Submersible fits up to 300 gallons and 46 cm deep. The 1500-watt Deluxe covers ponds up to 1,200 gallons in every zone on the chart.

We can get this moving for you quickly, and depending on where you are, your parcel can arrive in as little as 1 to 2 business days once it's on the road. Pickup in Millet, Alberta is free, and shipping is free on orders over $199.99 to most addresses.

What size de-icer do I need for a 300 gallon pond?

K&H rates the 300-watt Submersible for up to 300 gallons and 46 cm deep. For a deeper pond, the Thermo-Pond Deluxe 1500W is more than enough: K&H's chart asks for at least 750 watts in zones 3 and 4. Pipestone Farm Supply carries both.
