Description
This Allied Precision Bucket Heater is designed to heat water as opposed to de-icing water. A stainless-steel guard protects the durable heating element that will heat water past 150°F towards boiling, depending on the bucket's volume and insulation. It comes with a 6 ft. cord and is designed to rest easily inside a 5 gal. bucket. The heater is thermostatically controlled with over-temperature protection.
Used this heater in our 90 gallon pond. This unit has no thermostat, but due to low insulation qualities of our pond, it was left on continuously when outside temps were below 30 degress, and the pond would stay between 65-70 degrees. However, we would turn unit off during the day, if daytime highs got above 38 degrees. Great purchase, but would be better in combination with thermostat. Be careful to closely monitor water temp when using this heater.(We used a floating aquarium type thermometer)
