The Pennington Aquagarden Ice Vent pond heater has been specially designed for water gardening applications incorporating innovative energy-saving technology. So you can be assured of winter protection for your fish and aquatic life.
BENEFITS OF AN ICE VENT POND HEATER
Ponds do not need to be heated or ice-free during cold weather. However, it is essential to retain an ice-free area on the pond’s surface to allow toxic gases to leave and for life-giving oxygen to get in. The Ice Vent pond heater is specifically designed to retain an ice-free zone (vent) that supports fish and aquatic life in the pond through the coldest times of the year.
Ice vent pond heater utilizes a unique heat convection design. This means the Ice Vent requires the minimum of energy to maintain an ice-free vent in temperatures as low as minus 20°F.
The Pennington Aquagarden Ice Vent Pond Heater has been designed to be weatherproof, so it can be installed in a range of outdoor situations safely.
From a position that is safely accessible, float the Ice Vent on the surface at arm’s length from the edge of the pond (close to the deepest part of the pool if possible). It does not need to be in the middle, or the deepest part of the pond to work effectively.
Ideally, position the heater prior to freezing weather. If the pond is frozen, create an ice-free area using warm water. Do not use the Ice vent to break the ice, or forcefully crack the ice as this will stress the fish. Do not position on top of the ice. The heater must be floating evenly in the water to operate correctly.
The Ice Vent pond heater is an ideal option for ponds with a volume of up to 1200 US gallons. However, for larger ponds, it is recommended to use multiple Ice Vent pond heaters to ensure effective protection during freezing weather.

first time using, temperatures are no where near where the manual says it will not work, but isn't working at all. Ice is now forming over the top of the unit on the pond surfaceI contacted the manufacturer and they were very kind and sent me a new heater since I was within the two year warranty. Let’s hope I have better luck with the new oneUnfortunately replacement worked one time and then quit when I tried using it for the second freeze we had

Pond heater working well to get a ventilation hole open. Hopefully it lasts longer than the previous brand purchased twice.

I originally ordered because I thought I read it read that it would work up to minus 20F. But the box says up to 20F which is weird. What pond is frozen at that temp? But the instructions say up to minus 20F. So this might be going back. Ugh. Luckily my aerators are keeping a nice hole in the pond.

Pond had been running with aerators and a 1200 watt heater. Replaced the heater with this heater and the next morning the pond was frozen over and the GFI was shot. Unit is being returned!
