  • Haven't used it yet
I've had chickens/ducks in the past and bought this water heater in preparations for the upcoming winter. I selected this one because of the buyer ratings. Hopefully it will meet my expectations.

  • Keeps water liquid all winter long
I resisted buying one of these for years due to the expense. After winter after winter of trying other things, and the water constantly freezing, I finally made this purchase. I wish I had just gotten one in the first place. Its functions consistently and keeps the water liquid and fresh.

  • Possible remedy for non working heater
I ordered two of these, one for a covered outside chicken run water font and one for an enclosed chicken coop. The outside unit did not work at all when the outside temp went down to 28 degrees overnight and up to about 32 degrees the next morning. The inside one did work and heated the water to about 45-50 degrees. I called Farm Innovators and the representative said that I should put the entire unit in the freezer unplugged for about an hour to re-calibrate the thermostat. My freezer is set at 0 degrees Fahrenheit. After an hour, I took it out and it worked. Temp went up to about 195-200 degrees in the center and turned off after the unit began to thaw to room temp. So I will put it back out in the chicken run and see what happens tonight. Hopefully, this will be a fix and it will work. Before you send yours back, try this if you can. Edit: I put the heater back in the run last night and this morning when I woke up The temperature outside was 27°F and the water was heated to a perfect 50°. For now I have to say I do endorse this product. The only question remaining is longevity. I am going to raise from three stars to four stars. I did take off two stars because the device is too cheaply made (in China). There is no way this thing is worth about $50. At the very least it should have an adjustable thermostat like the one in your car or house and it should be sealed better so that it can be used out side safely, especially since it is designed to be used under about 5 gallons of water and for livestock which will spill and drip water on it at some point. It is a good gadget if you don't want to run out with hot water to your chicken coop several times a day or if you leave your chickens overnight or for a couple of days and can not put hot water in their water font. I would rather pay a bit more and get a better designed and more durable water heater or at least have a choice to pay for added functions if they were available. The problem is that this seems to be the only one of it's type out there. It is packaged by several different manufacturers but they all look exactly the same, so I think they must all be made by one company and distributed by many other sellers. And they are all made in China. I would even pay extra to get an American made one. ... show more

  • It works!
I read several reviews before purchasing this unit. Pro's: -Nice sized unit for a 3 or 5 gallon waterer. You could easily fit a larger waterer on here too (but I can't lift it filled with water!!), probably a good 18" in diameter). This is a "pro" for me, but as one reviewer mentioned, it may make this unit too big for those with a small coop. -Solid base keeps the unit stable on the coop floor -Good height helps keep pine shavings/litter out of the water (although I do have mine sitting on pavers for added height and security) -Units thermostat seems to work very well, keeps the water lukewarm into the low 20's (I haven't had a chance to test it at colder temp's yet). Con's - The unit seems to get almost a little too hot, I would still order it and it's not enough of a concern to reduce the star rating, just an observation. - Cord could be longer and it would be nice if they included something to put around the cord to protect it from the inevitable pecking. An easy fix with a trip to the hardware store. Additional detail: When I received the box, I plugged in the unit inside to ensure the temperature gauge was working (shouldn't kick on until the temperature is 35 degrees or colder). I also put this outside (in a dry location) when it was just over 35 degrees and again when it was in the 20's to see how hot the unit gets. The temperature sensor seems to work really well, but the unit gets much hotter than I expected from reading other reviews. I don't think it's hot enough to allow anything to catch on fire; it is too hot to touch comfortably but not hot enough to burn my skin. I would not recommend using this with a plastic waterer, it may be ok, but it wasn't worth the risk to me. The cord is made from a very thick sturdy rubber; that being said, I would recommend running to the hardware store to add something around it - you could even slice an old hose and slip the cord in that. June 2014 edit - Just a quick update to say that this is still working like a champ and made it through another winter. Very durable! If and when it ever goes, we will be replacing it with the same thing. As a side note, we never did wind up adding a hose around the cord and the chickens have left it alone for 2 full seasons now. ... show more

  • Works great so far but NOT MADE IN USA AS ADVERTISED!
The heater works as intended but one of the selling points for me was the claim that it was made in the USA. When I got it the box clearly states, Made in China. I removed one star for this discrepancy.

I’ve had 3 of these. Have an unused one as a back up. First one lasted 5 years. Replaced it cause it just got to banged up and nasty (chicken poo). They work great. Temperature control , on/off depending on outdoor temperature. Heats 5 gallons of water in standard metal chicken waterer. I live in lower Michigan. cold nights , -0 common. ... show more

  • Tested well and works great
Read in customer Q&A to recalibrate thermostat, put in freezer for 1 hour. I wanted to test ours upon arrival because we were leaving town before the arctic air was forecast to come thru. I put it in the freezer for 1 hour, took it out, plugged it in and it immediately heated up. Once it completely thawed out, it turned itself off. My neighbor, who cared for our girls, said the chicken's water remained liquid the whole time the temps were below freezing. Temps dipped down to 7° and didn't get above freezing for 4 days. We have it plugged into an outdoor electric cord. I endorse this product. ... show more
