SLASHCOOL Upgraded 500-Watt De-Icer - Submergible Cast Aluminum Utility De-Icer with Black Teflon Coating Film for Better Mineral Buildup and Corrosion Resistance
- ...livestock and wildlife with this thermostatically controlled de-icer. The thermostat will only activate the de-icer once the water temperature approaches the freezing point (35° F). And turns of once the water reaches the de-icer's predetermined "shut-off temperature" of 45° F (at -10° F air temperature)..
- BETTER MINERAL BUILDUP AND CORROSION RESISTANCE - Mineral and other impurity buildup causes "hot spots" that will eventually cause the de-icer to fail. Diligent removal of this buildup is difficult especially in waters with a high concentration of calcium carbonate. To make everyone's life easier, this upgraded de-icer unit has a durable and efficient black Teflon coating film that provides high buildup and corrosion resistance. It keeps the de-icer working efficiently without.
- CAUTION: It is highly recommended that you only use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlet. The said outlet should be in a weatherproofed location adjacent to the tank where you intend to de-ice. Avoid using extension cords as it is can cause power drops that in turn cause the de-icer's poor performance. Always consult the included user manual for safety and maintenance guidelines..
