The state of the art design allows for use as a submersible or floating stock tanks de-icer in just seconds. The removable heater is made for years of dependable service when used as directed and cared for properly.
Directions for use as a Floating De-Icer:
After unpacking your de-icer, simply extend the cord, place the heater into your stock tank in the desired location and plug it into your outdoor GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlet. It is important to make sure the outlet is a GFCI outlet. Once the surrounding water temperature falls, the Deluxe Stock Tank De-Icer will automatically turn on and keep an open area in the water trough to ensure a source of fresh drinking water for your horse during the winter.
Directions for use as a Submersible De-Icer:
After unpacking your de-icer, press the 3 buttons on the sides of the support legs holding the floater ring. These buttons can be pressed one at a time to release the floater. Once the floater has been removed, place the de-icer in its desired location. Plug the de-icer into a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlet. It is important to make sure the outlet is a GFCI outlet. The unit will begin to operate once the temperature falls and will keep an open area in the water trough.
Caring for your Deluxe Stock Tank De-Icer:
Occasionally check the heating element on your de-icer to ensure there is not excessive scale buildup on the element. Excessive scale build up is a natural occurrence and is a result of minerals in the water. If it appears there is excessive buildup, un-plug your de-icer and allow 1 minute before removal. For easier cleaning, you may thread the power cord through the top of the housing. This will allow you to unscrew the heater from the base of the housing. Once the heater is removed from the housing, run the heater under warm water and wash it with a cloth and soapy water. If the scaling is difficult to remove in this manner, obtain a lime remover liquid. Simply soak the steel heating element in a shallow dish filled approximately 1/2 inch deep with the lime remover liquid. After soaking and cleaning, rinse and re-assemble the de-icer into the housing.
Storing your Deluxe Stock Tank De-Icer:
After spring warm-up, follow the care and cleaning instructions above. Store in a safe place for next season.

Horses are natural pasture animals. Their typical activities include grazing anywhere from 12-16 hours a day, walking, and playing with other horses. Confined to stalls for long periods of time, horses can develop negative behavioral vices.
Nothing is more disconcerting to horse owners than a horse behavior that is both repetitive and harmful. A stall vice is one such behavior. Stall vices can affect your horse's dependability and/or health, and once a vice is set, it's hard to break.
A range of insects bother horses. Flies, mosquitoes, gnats, fleas, ticks, and lice can all create havoc in the stall, barn, or stable. This article discusses how to understand, rid and repel bugs.
Effective insect control for your horse, barn, and home relies on understanding the difference between various active ingredients. This article discusses pyrethrins, permethrins, and more.
