Required for Proper Automatic Waterer Installation

The Tru-Test Thermal Earth Tube is designed to prevent water lines from freezing when installing automatic livestock waterers in cold climates.

Installed beneath the waterer and below the concrete slab, this tube allows natural geothermal heat from below the frost line to rise and circulate around the water supply line. The result is a protected, insulated air chamber that helps prevent freezing — even in harsh winter conditions.

How It Prevents Freezing

  • Extends below the frost line
  • Allows thermal heat from subsoil to rise upward
  • Circulates warm air around the supply line
  • Acts as an insulated barrier against surrounding cold air

Important: Do not place insulation or any other material inside the tube. The system relies on warm air rising from the earth to keep the water line protected.

Interlocking Design for Adjustable Depth

Each Thermal Earth Tube section features an interlocking design, allowing multiple tubes to connect together.

This means you can:

  • Extend the tube deeper depending on your local frost line
  • Customize installation depth based on regional climate
  • Stack sections securely for proper airflow

Simply connect additional tubes to reach the required depth below your frost line.
