In extreme cold areas, where ice cover lasts for a long time, install a bubbler in addition to your de-icer. Keep the bubbler close to the surface of the water -like its name suggests, a bubbler produces thousands of bubbles that replenishes valuable oxygen in your pond, helping your fish survive.

Questions
what temperature does this heater keep the water
- It does not heat the water. It's sole purpose is to keep a hole in the ice. When temps drop below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, ponds can freeze over, and the fish living in them are deprived of oxygen as CO2 levels rise. Keeping a hole in the ice, allows oxygen in and CO2 out.
