Dock De-Icers
The NH law on de-icers reflects new technologies, increased safety and access for property owners. Timers and temperature controllers are easy to install. Double check to make sure your de-icer is up to code, safe and protecting both your property and your environment.
De-icers only need a few hours each day to do their jobs! In addition, a device that runs for only 2-4 hours a day will significantly reduce operating costs.
Dock De-Icer Information
• Use a thermostat to run the de-icer only when the air temperature drops below freezing
• Use a timer - run the device for only 2 - 4 hours a day
• Set up your de-icer to form a narrow open water area around your dock
• Point a circulator device in a vertical direction rather than at an angle towards the middle of the lake to minimize dangerously thin ice (use a purpose built bracket rather than ropes for easier adjustment - most manufacturers offer them as an accessory)
