Description:
This simple, low-wattage water heater will keep up to 16 gallons of water ice-free, using only 80 watts! In our experience and testing here at MPC, we find it is best suited for no more than 5 gallons of water if the waterer is not insulated and protected from the elements.
This de-icer is thermostatically controlled, which means it will only kick "on" if needed. The heater arrives with a cord safety clip to keep the cord secure and out of the way, and it's safe for both plastic and metal pails.
Usage Tips:
- Do not use with an extension cord.
- There is not an on/off switch; the unit is always on, monitoring the temperature and/or heating, when plugged in.
- The perfect bucket heater MUST be placed in your bucket and submerged underwater at all times while it is in use!

The K&H Perfet Bucket Heater is terrific! Really good quality and the cord guard/clip is brillant.

A great addition to my flock-keeping supplies! I used the saltwater in a plastic bottle method last year for a 5-gallon bucket watering system with mediocre success. The Perfect Bucket Heater De-Icer has lessened having to change out water every morning or break up ice out of the cups that we use. The low wattage used by this product is a great help as well! Highly recommend!

It hasn't been cold enough for it to even turn on but I'm assuming it will work great.

This didn't keep the water from freezing, not with the cup style waterer I had. I wouldn't recommend

Used it for one season now and it worked perfect. I used it inside a plastic 5 gallon bucket with no problem. Worked great.

Best chicken water heater out there! Tried several other types out there and they never made it past a season! This is our second unit and the prior one had lasted 4 years. We just packed it up and could not find it so we had to order a second! Now we will have 2 units when we find the other. Don't waste your money on any other brands!

Perfect Bucket Heater De-Icer
Pros: Prevents freeze so far (haven't hit _really_ cold temps yet). Cord is decently long and rugged. Puck is a convenient size and heavy enough to stay in place.
Cons: the grey coating is already flaking off (less than 2wks use) - that's disconcerting. The plastic cord bracket broke instantly upon trying to secure over bucket edge.
