Yes. Over the water pump bottom filter on a pond of 250 gallons, my turtles have gone through them years. About once in a while they last for about three minutes. In the mean time, I'll wait two years. It gets crowded occasionally with the turtles. While it could be helpful to keep chickens outside, you probably prefer chicken wire cages. It won't burn them if they are covered in water much too quickly. If you heat it, do not let it drain for very long. GFI outlets only accept this card.
There is no explanation for ice bth yet. The bottom of this heater is touched. In terms of applying pressure to the water in front of the stove when the space is large enough for the heater to be submerged, it should have no consequence other than if there is no flat bottom or if there is a solid ground. I think the situation you're in is not that complex. I apologize for my kindness, but I cannot add any more information.
A small rust can be detected in it, but not enough to interfere with its function.
Do you know this is a de. You can use it on poly or metal tanks up to 300 gallons. In fact, it got to 37 degrees & before the engine turned off. About 45 degrees F is indicated.

When my livestock water troughs freeze, this is what living in a cold climate feels like. A trough heater in each type varies my experience. All in all, this is working out. All these components are plugged in a 50 foot extension cord hooked up to an outdoor 20 volt plug with a circuit breaker. breaker has not yet tripped it. There are no instructions I was recommended for on-grounding. Attaching both the battery and the wire to the fence and to the heater has been done with zip ties. Due to the low water level in the trough, my horse likes to pull out the heating equipment. With the use of zip ties strategically positioned over the heater, it managed to withstand the assault in winter. It has a good cage around the heater, and the zip ties prevent both the heater cable and the heater's cable from getting inside of it. Several people report losing power on the heaters because the cables were melted when they tried to charge the devices. This guard might not seem like a necessary thing but I have witnessed horses bite and bend the element. Quite a few years ago, one of the largest ones appeared for me, one of the biggest they make. It is a typical rubbermaid trough, with over 300 gallons. The ice doesn't break anything in the water. The item would purchase it again if available again.
It's up to you to open the item and read the instructions. A GFCI outlet must be installed right next to your water tank, and an 8-volt car is also required in most circumstances. . . Next, drape bare copper wire over the ground ground ground, then run the water into it to see the feet. All of these are mentioned in the product description, but for reasons that are hard to appreciate. Although I do not know for sure if it works, I would venture to guess it does.
Always an efficient, reliable heaters. During a 30-below weather environment there were two more leaks on an older sinking heater, leaving me without water for my horses every time it malfunctioned. As opposed to the old fashioned heaters we have in Northern Minnesota, they do not perform well when frozen or chilled. Learned a lesson.
The software so far works just as advertised, but it may not work in time. Upon returning to a normal position, the elements were bent down further. It was not packed to save on shipping costs, and if I read this correctly, I didn't think it should have been this way, but if I did, then I didn't hear it said. It wouldn't be possible for me to put it together myself now. On the other hand, two of the connecting connector sit straight. An attached wire cage must be bent over the elements in order to be held in. About 1/4" thick of wire is used for this wire. This piece of paper could not be bent. Despite having it, I hate to admit it. My husband had to help me on this issue. Having to think about it when I decide.
Because I've grown tired of refilling my chicken waterer, I decided to order some horizontal water nipples and installed them on the side of my 55 gallon drum (which contained food safety stuff). As far as I know, you can keep it out of the freezing situation in the wintertime. It was at this point in time that I came to rely on this heater. For now, I'm using the cord I ran across the barrel just to keep it on its bottom. Turning it on and off when necessary is a constant throughout the system. Heating elements are prevented from burning plastic due to its metal wire shroud. This worked great as I ran it all winter! In terms of freezing, it didn't do a good job, although most of the time I didn't keep the whole 55 gallon drum full, which would result in too much water pressure on the nipples. Would you be able to rect?.
Using less energy is a bad idea. There may have been a need for a larger size. It does keep the fish in the bottom of my 10- X 5- x 2 feet fish pond/feature free of ice all edges. What led to four stars for me. My electric bill soared dramatically in the last couple of months. In approximately 10 minutes, you can spend about $10 per child. Monthly fees are $15 per month for our members. I understand that these have been working perfectly during the last couple of months since temp readings were near 20 degrees. I was not expecting it to spike in volume at all.
With this type of heaters, you just need to replace one old tank heater with one new. I acquired this brand for the first time a few days before extreme cold weather arrived. I was wondering if this was the right fit for the 100 gallon plastic water storage. As far as I am concerned, I have measured temperatures single-digit since installing it. The tank does not have any trace of ice. It is my pleasure to recommend this heater; it has worked well for me. On the bottom of the tank, it serves as a cooling system. It prevents the entire thing from freezing.
Safes your fish in the cold and prevents them from breaking. Unlike your pond or another surface, it only appears when you've gotten down to 32 degrees and won't freeze over. This is our second one and last one was a ten-year event. Unlike heat generated from your pond, it stops your pond from freezing.
