Update on Dock Bubblers/De-icers

 

Boat house de-icing-Lake Placid NY

Ray Ford wrote an excellent article on dock de-icers in the October 2012 edition of the Canadian magazine Cottage Life. It reviews the history of dock de-icing, the liability concerns about making large areas of open water or thin ice and covers suggestions on how to manage ice damage to docks.  The Dock Bubbler page has been updated to include some of the information in his article as well as how you can get a copy of the magazine.
