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.
SweepstakesYes

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 $!
SweepstakesYes

Yes, I recommend this product.
