Review: Great Heaters! - I bought two of these for a great deal during the off season and have been very happy with them so far. I have two rubber 100 gallon stock tanks in central Oklahoma. Normal winters include temps below freezing at night, warming up during the day, but we did have approximately 5 days of consistent below freezing temps down to less than 10 degrees Fahrenheit and they did keep the water from freezing. Both look to be in perfect condition after this winter and will be stored to use again for next season. Review: Would buy again - Worked great all season. Purchased 3 for the winter and kept the tanks clear of ice all winter. ## Features - Submergible Tank De-Icer: Water heater de-icer submerges beneath the water in your livestock tanks to keep water from icing over - Efficient Trough Heater Design: Stock tank heater for livestock features patented Ice Chaser cast aluminum construction for efficient heating and safe operation - Temperature Controlled: 1500-watt warmer is thermostatically controlled and operates only when needed, saving you time and electricity - Durable Construction: Made from heavy-duty cast aluminum with an anti-chew cord protector for durability and reliability through the winter months or cold temperatures throughout the year - Versatile Use: Safe for plastic and offers plenty of uses around the farm or job site for livestock or pet animals; Suitable for use in plastic or metal bowls, bins, or basins ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000HHO9LC | | Best Sellers Rank | #184,323 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #160 in Livestock Feeding & Watering Supplies | | Brand | FARM INNOVATORS | | Brand Name | FARM INNOVATORS | | Color | Gray | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 468 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00085045004190 | | Included Components | Spray | | Item Type Name | Farm Innovators Model H-419 Ice Chaser Cast Aluminum Submergible Tank De-Icer, 1,500-Watt | | Item Weight | 3.05 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Farm Innovators | | Material | Aluminum | | Material Type | Aluminum | | Model Number | FARM INNOVATORS - H-419 | | Part Number | H-419 | | UPC | 085045004190 085045054195 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | Three year limited warranty | | Wattage | 1500 watts | ## Images ![Ice Chaser Cast Aluminum Submergible Tank De-Icer with Heavy Duty and Anti Chew Cord Protector Patio, Lawn, and Garden | Thermostatically controlled heater operates only when necessary, cast aluminum construction for efficiency and safety - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71WvlG21wEL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: will this melt thru plastic stock tanks?** A: ...unless the tank is not level and there is only a little water left in the tank and it puddles at one end. If the heater is partly IN the water and partly OUT of the water; then the water will cause the heater not to shut off and the part that is OUT of the water will get hot enough to melt holes in a Rubbermaid tank. I know; I should have kept the tank full. **Q: The instructions say "DO NOT USE EXTENSION CORDS!". I plan to use a short E.C. (outdoors application). Anyone have any problems running an E.C.?** A: I run a 100' heavy extention cord out to the barn and I have never had an issue. Just be sure it is a heavy duty extension, IE: 12/2 or 14/2 wire. It only draws a light duty - as much voltage as a 60 W light bulb I believe, just check the specs..... **Q: what guage wire for a distance of 75 ft.should be used?** A: I don't understand the question. The device should be plugged directly into outlet. It stipulates do not use extension cords. This is 1500 watts and 15 amp if I'm not mistaken. I don't have the box any longer. My barn is wired with 12 gauge wire. My outlet is less than 40 feet to the circuit box. If you intend to use an extension cord, you'd have to find one that is suitable for that draw. So many outdoor extension cords are only 16 gauge wire. You'd have to find the specs of any extension cord you plan to use. This is what I found in search http://www.amazon.com/Yellow-Jacket-2885-Heavy-Duty-Contractor/dp/B000BQM06U This is a 12 gauge 3 prong cord. I did have a failure, I believe a defected product. My Di Icer I purchased this year burned out my outlet. This I understands happens when the product draws more amps than the outlet or wire is rated for. My barn is wired correctly and this outlet failed..If you read my updated review/comment..I've had other heaters like this for years. They worked great until they didn't..I assume they were Farm Innovators. This years purchase kept the water WARM, not just ice free in Michigan. Beware..I had issues and my wiring was correct.Using this product in a manner (extension cord) may create a fire or shock hazard, especially if using a underrated extension cord. **Q: will this keep a hot tub from freezing and blowing out the pvc? Broken heater, just need to keep the water above freezing.** A: I do not know. I would call the manufacturer about that. Also a hot tub holds much more than the 100 gallon horse tanks we use it for so I do not know if it will keep up if it gets into temps below 20. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Heaters! *by K***S on March 16, 2026* I bought two of these for a great deal during the off season and have been very happy with them so far.

Purchased 3 for the winter and kept the tanks clear of ice all winter. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 gallon bucket approved! *by K***M on August 12, 2025* I bought this in the summer in anticipation of freezing weather in Wisconsin. I filled the bucket full of ice and water to test it. It melted it quickly and then shut itself off. I don’t want to have to carry water out to my chickens several times a day in the winter and a heated bowl just gets filthy and will need to be dumped out regularly, which makes an icy mess. This seems like a perfect solution provided the heater keeps the water, nipples free of ice. The heater itself seems to be working perfectly and doesn’t use any energy if the water temperature is above freezing. I’m really happy this fit in a 5 gallon Lowe’s bucket. I drilled a hole in the lid to take the cord through and keep the chickens out of the water. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/6800290-ice-chaser-cast-aluminum-submergible-tank-de-icer-with-heavy](https://www.desertcart.us/products/6800290-ice-chaser-cast-aluminum-submergible-tank-de-icer-with-heavy) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-08-23*
