I pre-filter water for my basement tanks into a 45g brute trash can on rollers using a submersible pump to drain and refill tanks. Because my basement is cold~ (55°F in winter) I have a couple of 300w heaters to heat the water to 76°FHmm... Have you ever pondered drawing water into a brute trash can a day or two before so it gets to room temperature?.
