Large potable water tank use

If you have electricity at your coop this is what I did.

Cool!
What are your ambient temps?

Any idea what the water temp is kept at?
I assume both heaters work on a thermostat.

Any idea what the power consumption is? KillAWat is a good(only) way to know

Not finding the temp but it keeps it just above freezing.
Posting at the bottom the pump and heater that I bought. It is a 1500 watt heater 300 gallon. as far as the amount of electricity,
Don't know probably don't want to know lol lol. That's why I am making an insulated cover box. I have 30 hens so it's very convenient.
