The K&H Thermo-Pond 3.0 is a unique de-icer that maintains a hole in pond ice for just pennies a day. It's the worldʹs most successful energy efficient pond heater!
An open hole in pond ice allows proper gas exchange and helps fish survive the winter. The Thermo-Pond 3.0 facilitates this exchange by maintaining a 12-inch hole in pond ice, even in sub-zero weather. Add this K&H pond de-icer to create a healthier environment for your fish this winter.
Economical
While other high-wattage de-icers can drive electric bills through the roof, the K&H Thermo-Pond 3.0 is easy on your budget. It consumes a mere 100 watts of power and operates for just pennies a day. With the money you'll save compared to running a traditional pond de-icer, the Thermo-Pond 3.0 can pay for itself in a few months.
Internal thermostats automatically turn the floating Thermo-Pond 3.0 on and off as needed. Our specialized technology ensures that your pond de-icer will only run as often as needed to maintain a 12-inch hole in the ice. Unlike some other heaters, Thermo-Pond will never burn a pond liner or plastic pond.

Care & Instructions
Minimum Depth Requirement
Please make sure your pond has a depth of at least 18 inches.
Already Frozen Ponds
- 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. Do not chop through the ice in smaller ponds as the shock waves can damage or kill your fish.
- If the ice is only 1 or 2 inches thick, place the Thermo-Pond on the ice and it will melt its way through the ice.
- Try to position your Thermo-Pond within arm’s reach of shore to avoid walking on thin ice.
- Snow and ice should be removed from the top of your Thermo-Pond.
- Always keep safety as your number one priority. Never walk on thin ice.
- Please consult your pond professional on tips for overwintering fish.
