Farm Innovators Submergible Tank De-Icer, 1000W Water Deicer- Ice-N-Easy Design with Protective Cage for Plastic or Metal Livestock Water Stock Tank

This product is outstanding! Used in my large metal water trough past winter when we had the week long deep freeze. Water Never froze!

I use this for my cold plunge that stays outside, many times it is below zero. I usually leave it in overnight and let it freeze over but then plug it in until it thaws just enough to use. If I let it heat up it could be 0 degrees outside and the water would get to like 52 degrees. So it definitely works but if you want to have cold ice baths it can be hard to plan so the ice melts but it doesn’t get too “warm”. Overall easy to use and works good, remember to unplug and take out of water before getting in.

I have been buying this type of trough heater for years. It always works great and is super easy to get set up! Last year, the local farm store I buy them at was out. I bought this heater before the cold weather got here so I'd have it on hand when I need it. We have had some cold nights (low 20s) and each morning there is no ice in the trough and the pony has access to water all throughout the winter months. The heater is super easy to put together and is durable.

Rusted within a week, Ill sand it clean and try a clear coat on the stand and see if that helps, otherwise works good, -30' and the water was liquid top to bottom, even had the tank lose all the water, caught it same day as I always check on it and even after being bone dry, it's still working with a refill.

My 300 gallon goldfish pond kept freezing up. I love how this only keeps the water from freezing and doesn't actually continually run to heat the water. Hopefully it works again next winter!

I've had these heaters in my tanks for three months, and they work great! The photo is on a day when it was -9 F outside, and there was absolutely no ice in the tank. My two-year-old filly picks up the heater and throws it around, and it refuses to break. What an awesome and durable product! Highly recommend!

It worked great.

For two weeks it worked great. The "feels like temperature" here in Minnesota was -30 F (yes negative) for a few days. Brutally cold. This product kept my 85 gallon cold plunge tank at a balmy 48 F. Then I noticed the GFCI plug was tripped. Hunting around the house I finally figured out that this deicer was the problem. Now it won't heat the water, but strangely if you pull it out of the water and set it on the ground, it will start steaming so it's clearly working, just not submerged, which kind of defeats the purpose. Luckily I am in my return window. yay!

Works great in northern BC through our winters. My husband had one moment during a warmer day he thought it had quit until I reminded him it is thermostatically controlled which is great for a bit of energy savings! Highly recommend!

This product worked great to unthaw my 1/2 -3/4 60 gallon rain barrels after we received a cold snap here in Alberta. I would definitely recommend this product. We just left the de-icer in the barrel for about 12 hrs. and let it do it's job.

comme prévu

We've had to use 2 in our water trough, and could only have a few inches above them, otherwise, the water will freeze, but, we live in as low as - 50 temperatures in the winter, so we're ok with how they work and not have total frozen water trough.

Excellent product and not just for farming. Allows sump pump to work all winter.
