Ice Eater
Canada’s Lake and Pond Water Treatment, Equipment and Management Solutions Company
Ice Eater –40-years, the trusted deicer to protect assets and prevent winter fish kills!
Bearon Aquatics Ice Eater venturi shroud (housing) with outwardly flared ends is designed to prevent ice from forming around any structures, walls or boats and keep an opening in the ice. By providing a continuous flow and circulation of warmer subsurface water up to the surface the ice-eater prevents thick ice from forming and keeps an ice-free open area protecting your assets before the ice sets!
The Ice Eater provides more upward thrust & draws warmer water from greater depths than other conventional de-icers. Ice Eater deicers are designed to be used in the harsh Canadian climate and are used across Canada.
The units are hung from the end of the dock, a boat house or any structure about 3 feet under the surface and can be pointed up for a large round opening. They can also be suspended at an angle to make an elongated ice opening for a boat or waterway or any structure. Used in freshwater or salt water.
By de-icing and keeping an opening in the ice the Ice Eater also allows oxygen to enter and be absorb in the water and helps sustain fisheries.

Ice Eater is shipped complete with suspension lines and shackles. Therefore, it can be taken out of the box, be tethered or hung from a boat, dock, barge, pier or any structure and plugged in.
Unlike other de-icing units, Ice Eater requires no additional hardware to obtain the desired de-icing pattern. Just move a shackle from one hole to another hole on the top rim, and you can quickly change the angle the Ice Eater is suspended at.
The average operating depth of the Ice Eater is between two and three feet, but for best performance, ensure there is at least one foot between the Ice Eater and the seabed.
