[QUOTE="Crofter64, post: 7396954, member: 87060"] I have a hydrant that self empties in the barn to five feet. The water comes via the house from the well, buried at 5 feet. I built an insulated box around the hydrant with a 40 watt light bulb inside. there is an ordinary garden hose that hangs nearby. It goes straight up into the mow and then curves out of the building into a water tank which is heated. I disconnect the ends as soon as the tank is full and both ends drain out . Each time I re attach I have to run the hose end under rushing water to clean the threads of ice. This morning the water was frozen as the bulb had burned out . I poured very hot water along the pipe , put in a new bulb and away I went! [/QUOTE]
