Farm Innovators UPH-15 1500W Universal Drain Plug Heater

Product Description

The FARM INNOVATORS UPH-15 is a 1500-watt universal drain plug heater designed to prevent tank contents from freezing in cold-weather conditions. It installs directly into a standard drain plug opening, making it compatible with a wide range of tanks without requiring permanent modification. The unit is thermostatically controlled, meaning it cycles on and off automatically to maintain temperature and avoid overheating. This heater is rated for safe use in all tank types and is backed by a one-year manufacturer guarantee. It is commonly installed by agricultural technicians, fleet mechanics, and facilities maintenance personnel working in environments where freeze protection is a seasonal requirement.

The UPH-15 is suited for use in livestock water tanks, equipment fluid tanks, and similar reservoir applications where drain plug access is available. The thermostat-based operation reduces unnecessary power draw during milder temperatures, making it practical for unattended use in barns, outbuildings, equipment yards, and outdoor service areas. It is sold individually and packaged eight units per case, making it a practical stock item for distributors and multi-unit operations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or experienced maintenance technician familiar with outdoor and agricultural electrical applications. Disconnect power at the circuit before handling any electrical connections, and ensure the tank is drained or at a safe level before removing the existing drain plug. Follow applicable NEC guidelines for outdoor and wet-location wiring. Do not operate the heater outside of a fluid-filled tank, as dry operation can cause damage or create a hazard.
