Powerblanket’s 1-gallon bucket heater provides a range of heating solutions for warming and storing temperature-sensitive materials. Our patented design eliminates hot and cold spots by applying uniform, full-coverage heat across the entire surface of the container. This ensures materials stay at the proper viscosity and maintain specified thermal levels. Whether you’re looking for a bucket water heater or a pail heater, our solutions are built to meet your needs efficiently. Each heater is available with either an adjustable or fixed thermostat, giving you control over the heating process. With options like the bucket water heater with thermostat and models featuring temperature control, you can trust these heaters for reliable performance.
