“I‚Äôm in Delaware so the temperature does not get too far below freezing, however when it has, this de-icer has worked. It is in a 5 gallon bucket with nipples and has worked in temperatures in the low 20‚Äôs. I keep it plugged in all the time s it regulates itself. The chickens always have ice free water now! Over all I am very happy with this unit and would purchase again.”
“This device works perfectly, assuring my "girls" have fresh water all winter long. This set up (a food safe bucket with watering "nipples" and this heater) is much easier to use than waterers with a heated base, which we found to be prone to spillage.”
“The first time I tried this the I used it with an extension cord and the outlet shorted without me realizing it and my chickens water froze. But once I corrected the problem it worked great! I recommend checking the water every day to make sure it‚Äôs working correctly. With that said, it‚Äôs one less chore I need to worry about! Highly recommend!!!”
“So far so good. I use a CFGI breaker with an extension cord so I didn‚Äôt have to hire an electrician. Hasn‚Äôt heated the water to High like a heater I bought from a different company.”
