Chicken Waterer De-Icer

Already have a chicken waterer you like?

Good. You don't have to replace the whole thing just because winter showed up.

This 150-watt Chicken Waterer De-Icer sits directly inside compatible plastic or metal waterers to help prevent the water from freezing when temperatures drop. It's thermostatically controlled, so it cycles on when needed instead of running continuously regardless of the temperature.

Basically, you keep your waterer.

You add the heat.

The ice loses.

Turn Your Regular Waterer Into a Winter Waterer

The Chicken Waterer De-Icer is especially handy if you've already built a nipple bucket setup or have a standard waterer that works perfectly well the other nine months of the year.

Place the unit in the water according to the manufacturer's instructions, keep it properly submerged, and the built-in thermostat automatically controls when the heating element operates.

The Teflon-coated heating surface is designed for durability and easier cleaning, and the unit is safe for use in compatible plastic waterers as well as metal ones.

No transferring water into a completely different winter setup.

And hopefully a whole lot less morning ice smashing.

How to Use

Inspect the de-icer, cord, and plug before use and follow the manufacturer's instructions for your particular setup.

Place the de-icer inside a compatible waterer and keep the heating surface properly submerged while operating. Maintain an adequate water level and never operate the unit dry.

Plug the unit into a properly grounded, GFCI-protected 120V outlet. If an extension cord is required, use an appropriately rated outdoor extension cord according to the manufacturer's instructions and applicable electrical requirements.

Keep plugs and electrical connections dry, protected from weather, and positioned where chickens cannot peck at or become tangled in the cord.

When freezing weather is over, unplug the de-icer, allow it to cool, clean it, and store it somewhere dry.

Safety & Care

Never operate the de-icer dry or modify the unit. Do not use it if the housing, cord, or plug is damaged.

Allow water to circulate freely around the de-icer and don't cover the heating surface.

To clean, unplug the unit and allow it to cool completely. Wipe it clean without using harsh abrasives, then dry thoroughly before storing.

And congratulations.

You have officially upgraded your existing chicken waterer without buying another giant plastic thing to store in July.
