Description
Protect docks, boats, and shorelines from winter ice damage with the Airmax Ice Eater. Designed for ponds, lakes, and marinas, the Ice Eater circulates warmer subsurface water to the surface, creating continuous water movement that helps prevent ice formation and melts existing ice.
A powerful motor and propeller draw warmer water from below and direct it outward for effective circulation. During warmer months, the Ice Eater can also be used to move floating debris and improve water circulation around docks and waterfront areas.
Built for dependable performance in harsh conditions, the Ice Eater can maintain an ice-free area up to 80 feet in diameter. A durable bronze end-bell and rugged housing provide lasting protection in extreme winter temperatures.
Choose from ½ to 1 HP motors in 115v (with plug) or ¾ & 1 HP 230v models (bare wires without plug), with power cords ranging from 25’ to 150’ to match your setup. The Ice Eater arrives fully assembled and includes mooring lines, stainless steel hardware, and a sacrificial anode for added protection.
For best performance, operate the Ice Eater in at least 24 inches of water with a minimum of 12 inches of clearance from the bottom.
When to Use
The Ice Eater is used to protect your docks, piers, marinas, and boats from ice and ice damage. Ice can twist your dock and even completely pull pilings out of the ground without protection from the Ice Eaters. Some boat owners pull their boats from the water during the winter months, costing them wrapping fees and storage. Pulling a boat is a major time commitment. Another option is to use an Ice Eater to protect your boats during the winter, preventing ice scratches and punctures on the coldest days. This allows you, your friends, and your family the ability to take advantage of those unseasonably warm winter days and go for that surge of the moment high seas adventure. You can’t get back on your boat at a moment’s notice if it’s been stored away. The 1Hp Ice Eater can clear an area as large as 80′ to protect your assets before the ice sets.
Have direct control over your Ice Eater with Airmax Thermostat. The thermostat controls the power to the Ice Eater, using ambient air temperature. Set the thermostat to your desired temp, and your Ice Eater will turn off/on as the temperatures rise/fall.
