Q: Can this lay against plastic without melting the tub?

5 months ago
1 Answer
  • A: Hello, thank you for your question. This de-icer is designed for use in plastic tanks and tubs and will not melt the container when used as directed. Be sure it is fully submerged in water at all times, as running it dry or without water between the heater and the plastic could cause damage.

Q: Use with what type of extension cord??

a year ago
2 Answers
  • CS Specialist
    A: Hello, We suggest not using an extension cord, but if you have to make sure that it is an extension cord that can be used outside in the winter, the shortest extension possible, and we would recommend using a 14-guage extension cord.

Q: Is this heater safe to use in a goat shelter that has a deep straw bedding throughout?

2 years ago
1 Answer
  • A: Hi there, Per the vendor: Any item used around GOATS must be careful and use extreme precaution measures as GOATS will eat, move and destroy any items that are not fastened down. If they have a lot of straw in the goat house, I would say they should not use the unit.

Better then ALL THE REST

11 years ago
We have 47 head of horses and run 14 tanks all 100 gallon. This is the only heater we use! The rest no matter the price are junk!. Note: all brands of heaters after time can shock or rust or stop working...between horses pawling them and being trampled ect dontvexpect any heater to last for life , if you do you are not for the horse business . we have had most of our heaters going on 8 yrs. 1 did finally rust out and one did stop working but considering how many we use and the fact the abuse they go through I am very very happy. You can take a frozen 100 gallon tank throw it on top and watch it heat a hole up . it does wonders. Won't melt even the cheapest plastic blue containers( for parties for ice and drinks ect) that you buy for $4. If it runs dry it shuts off no melting... Can any others say that! Lays in bottom out of way heats till there is no water , does not need to be samurged to work. Heck we hadfrozen pipes no water and dumped snow on this heater and it melted it and have us a trough of water, yeah that's a heater..I'm sure any heater can go wrong but I have used them all and found this one really really is so far greater then the rest!!!!!!!

Reliable, but . . .

12 years ago
I used one of these for three years. Worked great--no ice--until yesterday; my horses got a shock when they tried to drink from the trough. Pulled the unit out and found rusty-looking stains around the seam of the plastic housing where the cord attaches. The animals didn't take to it kindly. Looking for a different type to replace this one.

Keeps water from freezing at -20F

4 months ago
I got this to keep in a metal water dish for my chickens. Due to winter in New England. Of course everything freezes. This has kept up to our lowest temps of -20F with NO issues. Make sure you keep it covered with water and you wont have issues.

Favorite tank heater

5 months ago
I use several of these to keep tanks and barrels thawed in the winter. Uses a lot less energy than the bigger models, I figure about $20 month per heater at my electric rates. I use them in plastic containers without any problems. One 250-watt heater like this can keep a spot open on a 100 gallon plastic stock tank down to about 10F as long as not much wind.

Perfect for a 5 gallon poultry waterer

5 months ago
We have our waterer sitting on a heated base, but the temperatures here near Kansas City reached negative 20 degrees recently. The water in the bottom of the waterer was liquid but a frozen bridge formed up above preventing water from being accesssible to the chickens. This heater kept ALL 5 gallons melted. Well worth the $!
