Drain Hole Heater for Water Tank – Prevent Freezing & Maintain Fresh Water Year-Round
Keep livestock hydrated through winter with a dependable Drain Hole Heater for Water Tanks. Designed to prevent freezing at the lowest point of the tank, this heater helps ensure a continuous supply of fresh, drinkable water even in cold and sub-zero conditions. Ideal for cattle, horses, sheep, goats, and other farm and ranch animals, it’s a simple upgrade that supports animal health and reduces daily winter chores.
Reliable Freeze Protection Where It Matters Most
By warming the drain area of the stock tank, this drain hole heater helps stop ice from forming at the bottom—one of the most common freeze points. Keeping water from freezing ensures animals always have access to liquid water, which is essential for digestion, feed intake, milk production, and overall well-being during cold weather.
Easy Installation – Threads Directly Into the Drain
Installation is quick and straightforward. The heater threads directly into the existing drain hole of your stock tank, replacing the standard drain plug. No special tools or complicated setup are required—just thread it in and plug it in. This design keeps the heating element secure and out of reach of animals while maintaining a clean, uncluttered tank interior.
Supports Year-Round Fresh Water Access
Consistent access to unfrozen water is critical in winter. Animals that can’t drink enough may reduce feed intake, lose condition, or experience health issues. Using a drain hole heater helps ensure a dependable freshwater supply all season long, minimizing stress on livestock and saving time spent breaking ice or hauling water.
