Pipe Insert Heaters
A common method used for tank heating. This method would be our top recommendation if it weren’t for three factors. Complexity, cost, and insulation.
You can see by the picture, it’s not easy to set up. These heaters retail higher than their competitors, and they provide zero insulation. As soon as the power cuts out, the temperature is going to immediately drop.
Heating Bands
Another common method for heating. The metal strip placed around the base heats up, and over time heats the whole tank. We don’t recommend this one.
Like the pipe inserts, there is no insulation. No insulation means a constant power flow is necessary to keep contents at optimal temperatures. Not to mention, it can take up to 18 hours for one of these little bands to heat up the tank in the first place.
Powerblankets
We’ve done our research and have decided that Powerblanket is the most cost effective, insulating and efficient option currently on the market. It’s just as simple as it looks.
Wrap your tanks in an electric blanket, turn up the heat and watch it go. The patented heat-spreading technology ensures an even temperature throughout the tank. Since it’s a blanket, it’s sure to keep the tank warm even during a power outage.
