Study on deicing with Bubble Tubing®

Canadianpond.ca has been deicing for almost two decades and now we have independent studies to prove that deicing with with bubbles works.

During the winter of 2018-2019, Canadianpond.ca conducted a detailed study in collaboration with C-Core Engineering, a world leader in the field of ice engineering. Combined laboratory (Newfoundland) and field (Quebec) studies have proven that the bubbles generated by our linear Bubble Tubing® effectively create a vertical flow of water that rises to the surface of the water and transfers heat to melt the ice.

The resulting effect is :

  1. Maintain an open-water, ice-free area above the diffuser;

    Or, if the ice has already formed:

  2. Melt the existing ice at a rate of about 1 inch per day.
