Thermo-Pond™ 3.0 Pond Heater / Deicer (formerly Thermo-Pond 8000) |
K &
H Thermo-Pond 3.0
|
Thermo-Pond™ 3.0 is the third generation of the most efficient and advanced pond de-icer on the market. While it looks the same on the outside, Thermo-Pond™ 3.0 is all new on the inside. Thermo-Pond™ 3.0 outperforms all other heaters and de-icers on the market.
|
| Installation |
Just plug in your Thermo-Pond and float it in your pond dome side up. You should begin to use your Thermo-Pond when your pond has iced over. If the ice on your pond is more than 2 inches thick, drill a hole with an ice auger and place the Thermo-Pond over the hole. If the ice is only 1 or 2 inches thick, place Thermo-Pond on the ice and it will melt its way through. Do not chop through the ice as the shock waves can damage or kill your fish. Always keep safety your number one priority. Never walk on thin ice. Try to position your Thermo-Pond within arms reach off shore to avoid walking on thin ice. Snow and ice should be removed from the top of your heater. This heater is recommended for ponds up to 1,000 gallons. An additional Thermo-Pond should be used for each additional 1,000 gallons of water. An additional heater should also be used in ponds requiring extra gas exchange due to excessive plant decay or large quantities of fish under the ice.
After the winter season, wipe down your Thermo-Pond with a damp cloth and store it in a clean dry place. Always inspect your heater before using. If there are cracks in the cord or plastic housing, do not use. Discard immediately.
| Ice will typically form up to the sides of the Thermo-Pond™. It will not harm or "crush" the unit. There is water under it which allows toxic gases to vent through the hole. |
 |
| This is the hole created by the Thermo-Pond™. The best thing to do is to leave your Thermo-Pond™ in place. Don't move or disturb it during the winter. |

I wanted to mention that the floating de-icer I bought from you guys a
couple years ago works like a charm. My pond is only about a foot deep,
but with the de-icer my fish overwinter in the pond! Great purchase.
Thanks again,

Just a quick note, the heaters I
purchased last year worked great, we had the coldest winter on record for
the past 30 years, the two heaters kept the water open. Pretty good heaters!!!

As always, everything was perfect.
We received our order unexpectedly already after 2 days. The day thereafter
everything was in the pond replacing some product we had nothing but problems
with. Now, time will tell. Thanks for caring.

I just received my Thermo-Pond and
it looks like it is doing a great job, so far, really hasn't been that
cold here. Your staff was very dedicated to my order, making sure everything
was right and all pertaining information to my order was at my finger tips
if so needed. Thank you again.

I got the pond heaters on Wednesday.
Seeing as I only ordered on Sunday afternoon, I was a bit surprised. I've
been using my old 1500 watt stock heater the past week as winter came a
little earlier then usual to Calgary this year. I'm looking forward to
saving some electricity with the thermo-pond heaters. This is my third
order with you in the past 4 years and great service again.

We were delighted at the promptness
of our order. It was delivered two days after placing the order!
Service Extraordinaire! Simply amazing! Thank You. PondsOnlineCanada
most definitely will be our first choice for shopping pond supplies.

Sorry I haven't
responded earlier, I was out of the country, one of the reasons I got the
new pond de-icer. It arrived and I plugged it in and it worked as advertised,
I was very pleased. It melted through the ice and created a hole slightly
larger than the unit so I was able to go away confident that there would
be a hole in the ice that toxic gases could escape. Thanks again, I continue
to be impressed with your service and products.

I did receive
my Thermo Pond Deicer very promptly and immediately put it into my pond.
Within hours it had made a hole in the ice and the fish were swimming around
the outside and seemed to be enjoying themselves just like they had a hot
tub!!!! Thanks again for the exceptional service and competitive
pricing.

thanks for
the follow up - so far so good - haven't seen my fish yet as there is about
a foot of snow over my pond but the heater is definitely working as thanks
to the design I can see the unfrozen part through the hole in the heater!

Hi folks -
My pond heater arrived a couple days after I placed the order. It hasn't
been cold enough yet to really evaluate its performance, however I'm sure
it will do the job. You wouldn't be selling it if it didn't. Once again
your customer service is second to none. Thanks again.

Just to let
you know I received it on Monday and installed it. It is working just great.
The timing couldn't have been better now that we are in a deep freeze here
in Ottawa.

I'm impressed
with the speed that my Thermo-pond traveled to my doorstep, arriving at
about 10:30 A.M. on Dec. 24 (as I recall, I placed the order on the afternoon
of Dec. 22). I would recommend the Thermo-pond to anyone winterising a
pond in the Atlantic Canadian area. The product is simple, lightweight
and efficient - looks like it's built to last, and it works well (my goldfish
were very curious about it, and soon gathered under it like mini-Astrodome
fans).
Installation
tip: The Thermo-pond unit works best when installed diagonally opposite
the waterfall, just over the pump intake, so a cross-flow of oxygen is
set up.
I've never
had faster delivery service on an Internet-ordered product. Thanks to your
staff for the effort, and Happy New Year!

Everything
went extremely well. I can't believe the product was at my doorstep 1 day
after order was put in. Also, it was a great price, $50 cheaper than my
local pond supplier. Thanks

Thanks for
follow-up. Service was first rate. Delivery was Monday AM as you advised.
Installed that day but I can't tell how well it is working yet as it has
been so mild that it has not had a chance to show what it can do.

Just a short
note to say we received the pond heater this morning, early, really early,
unbelievably damn early. I sleep with a German Shepherd beside my bed and
when the delivery guy rang the doorbell the dog naturally started barking
loudly beside my head. My trajectory was a little off this morning because
I landed on the floor instead of the usual rebound off the ceiling and
straight back to the bed. Nonetheless I thank you for the prompt delivery
of my SISTER'S pond thingy and strongly invite you to call her, say at
5 AM tomorrow and see how she likes it.
YOURS TRULY

Everything
is fine and arrived the same day that we received the tracking number.
Wonderful service. I just need (not want) the temperature to drop so I
can see the pond heater working. Thanks

I really appreciate
the level of customer service I was given for this order. It was good to
hear about the status of my order (status and actually when it was shipped),
as well as your follow-up. I will be doing business with you again. Thank
you.

timely, cost effective and super efficient!!! I will definitely be a return
customer!!! You can count on it!!!
