ThermoBar 40
– installation, user instructions and care
Finally your product from ThermoBar is here! We would like to thank you for
choosing ThermoBar. We suggest you read through this entire document
before you install your ThermoBar. You will then know not only how to install it
and use it correctly, but also how to best take care of it so it will last for many
years. At
thermobar.se
you will also find a number of really helpful films with
more information and advice on most of our products.
NB!
• Under each ThermoBar’s inner base there is a foil heater and thermostat.
ThermoBar’s guarantee does not cover troughs that have damage to the inside base,
so please make sure that your horses don't put their hooves in the trough.
• The person who installs and oversees the use of the ThermoBar is responsible for
making sure it is assembled, positioned and used correctly.
• We recommend that you always remove the power plug from the power source and
empty the ThermoBar when it is not in use.
• Never store your ThermoBar upside down outside – water can get into the electrical
connections when it rains.
• We recommend that the power cable (high voltage) is a maximum length of 50m. If
you want to use a longer cable, please consult an electrician.
WARNING!
Children and people with limited physical, sensory or mental abilities or a
lack of experience and knowledge should only use a ThermoBar under supervision or
once they have been clearly instructed how it is safely used, and only if they clearly
understand the risks associated with using a ThermoBar. Children should never be
allowed to play with a ThermoBar. Children should not be allowed to clean or
maintain a ThermoBar without supervision.

Assembly and installation
1. Place the ThermoBar up against a fence
post or a wall on an even surface
– for
example on a wooden pallet. Position the
ThermoBar
so that water won’t pool around
it but run easily away when emptying or
cleaning.
2. Secure the ThermoBar to a post or the
like
with the strap. Make sure it can’t slide
away when icy or snowy.
3. Be mindful that horses will often try to
scrape a surface with their front hooves to
find water, and they might do this if the
trough is ever empty. Make sure that horses
cannot reach into the trough with their
hooves by raising it or protecting it with a
plank of wood, for example.
4. The transformer with its 230-volt cable is
placed outside the paddock out of reach of
the horses. Place the transformer at least
one metre above the ground on a post or
wall. The transformer can be outside in the
weather unprotected as the cables are
underneath and pointing downwards, but it is
still a good idea to build a small protective
roof over it. NB!
Don’t build a sealed box
around the transformer or put plastic around
it, as it could overheat.
