Description
Kasco Marine's 4400D 1 HP 120V De-Icer for Docks, Boats & Ice Prevention
The Kasco Marine 4400D De-Icer is a powerful 1 HP, 120V ice prevention system designed to maintain open water around docks, boats, piers, marinas, and other in-water structures during freezing conditions. By moving warmer water from below the surface upward, the 4400D helps reduce ice formation and protect property from damage caused by ice expansion, lifting, and jacking.
Delivering 42 lb of thrust, the 4400D creates strong water circulation for effective de-icing in demanding winter conditions. Its stainless steel construction, sacrificial zinc anode protection, and heavy-duty motor design make it suitable for both freshwater and saltwater applications.
Perfect for preventing ice jacking, lifting, ice expansion, and winter-kill conditions, Kasco Marine's industrial-strength de-icers deliver unparalleled performance. Designed to endure the most severe winter weather, Kasco De-Icers offer robust protection for your property and investments. Crafted with industrial-grade materials and advanced engineering, they set the standard in ice control technology. Kasco's De-Icers generate more thrust than any other product on the market, ensuring a larger area of open water.
Flexible mounting options: Suspend the 4400D using the included 20 ft mooring lines, or pair it with an optional Kasco dock mount or horizontal float for greater control over positioning and water flow.
