In-Store Exclusive

This one's worth the trip to the store.

Brands like Weber, Milwaukee, Yeti, and DeWalt restrict where their products can be sold online — and for good reason. In-store buyers get authentic products, full manufacturer warranty, and access to pricing that simply isn't allowed to be advertised on the web.

  • Authorized dealer network · Full manufacturer warranty & support
  • Guaranteed authentic · No counterfeits, no gray-market resellers
  • The brands set these standards · Be wary of sellers who don't follow them

Every order helps keep your local hardware store on the corner.

Why we built NHG
You might find it for less locally. Independent retailers often offer competitive pricing — some products are even cheaper in-store than online.
Real expert advice — not search results. Independent hardware staff know their inventory and the local conditions you're working in.
Keep the neighborhood working. Every dollar spent at an independent retailer returns roughly 3x more to your local economy than at a national chain.

About Product Overview

Keep livestock hydrated when the temperature drops with the Farm Innovators Floating De-Icer for Livestock. Crafted from durable cast aluminum and finished in a bright blue, this floating de-icer is built to endure the rigors of farm life while delivering reliable access to unfrozen water for cattle, horses, sheep, and goats during cold weather.

  • Rugged cast aluminum construction that resists rust and mineral wear, ensuring years of dependable service in outdoor troughs.
  • High-visibility blue housing makes it easy to locate in low light or winter mornings, so staff can monitor water access quickly.
  • Floating design stays on the water surface, creating a controllable opening that prevents complete ice formation and keeps drinking water available.
  • Tailored for livestock needs, delivering consistent water access across common farm troughs during freezing conditions and routine winter feeding.
  • Boxed packaging for safe shipping and convenient storage when the device is not in use.

Ideal use cases

Perfect for barns, stables, and pastures where winter cold threatens water availability. Whether you manage a dairy operation, a mixed livestock farm, or a seasonal cattle range, this de-icer helps reduce dehydration risk and keeps your animals hydrated without constant intervention.

How to use and care for it

  • Place the Floating De-Icer in a clean trough and let it float freely on the surface.
  • During cold snaps, check the trough to ensure water remains accessible and unfrozen at the surface.
  • Periodically rinse to remove algae or mineral buildup; avoid harsh chemicals that could affect livestock.
  • Store in the boxed packaging during off-season to protect from dust and damage.

Why this Farm Innovators model stands out

Unlike generic de-icers, this model leverages a durable cast aluminum body designed to withstand farm conditions, combined with a clear focus on practical livestock watering needs. Its floating design minimizes disruption to feeding areas while maximizing uptime—helping you maintain hydration, support animal health, and streamline winter chores with a single, dependable solution.

Their Counter
Try local first · we'll wait

The stores we send you to are local and independently run — often for generations, the kind of place where someone behind the counter knows the regulars. We don't own them. We just think they deserve the foot traffic. They can put most of what we sell on their next truck. Ask there before you check out here.

About our directory. National Hardware Group is an independent retailer and directory. The local stores we list and link to are separately owned and operated — we have no ownership stake in any of them, and most pay us nothing to be included. That includes plenty of stores flying a co-op banner that people don't realize are locally owned and run, not operated by a corporation. Store owners can choose to upgrade their listing for an enhanced presence or pickup features, but the base directory is free, and inclusion is never a paid endorsement.
