Bucket Water Heater 1500W 120V Immersion Rod w/ Stainless Guard, Model 05-742G

Condition: New; brand new in the box with manual. No deficiencies noted.

Product Description

The Model 05-742G Bucket Water Heater is a heavy-duty portable immersion heater built to warm water quickly in buckets, tubs, stock tanks, and similar containers where temporary hot/warm water is needed without plumbing. With a 1500W heating output on 120V AC, it delivers faster heat-up than lower-wattage immersion heaters, while a stainless steel guard helps protect the heating element rods and reduces the chance of accidental contact with the hot metal surfaces. It’s a practical tool for jobsite cleanup, agricultural utility use, winter wash water, and general-purpose water warming—water only, as specified.

Cross-Referenced Models

(These are functional equivalents buyers often search; verify wattage, guard style, and cord length.)

• 120V 1500W bucket immersion heaters with stainless guard (same class)
• 1200–1500W immersion “rod” heaters for buckets/tubs (adjacent class)

Comparable Products

• Lower-wattage immersion heaters (1000–1150W) for slower, gentler heating
• Stock-tank de-icers/heaters (purpose-built for anti-freeze maintenance; different use case)
• Countertop electric water warmers (less portable; more controlled dispensing)

Use as Part of a Larger System

Commonly paired with:

• 5-gallon bucket / utility tub / stock tub (water-rated, heat-safe)
• GFCI extension cord (as needed; outdoor-rated if used outdoors)
• Thermometer (device to measure water temperature) for temperature-sensitive tasks
• Lid/cover (non-sealing) to reduce heat loss and speed warm-up (use safely; avoid trapping heat against cord)
