Well… that’s not supposed to happen. The stock tank was 70 degrees this morning. SOMEBODY splashed most of the water out and bent the de-icer yesterday. It must have damaged the thermostat.
Any ideas on protecting the drain-plug style de-icers from damage?
I normally keep the tank completely full as the horse I have now is not going to submerge his head above his eyeballs to bother the de-icer. (He does, however, like to splash the water out when he gets warm… and apparently he needed a shower yesterday. I did not expect that to happen in January.)
