I have a friend make his own holding tanks out of ABS sheet. He used an old heating element from a discarded oven with a rheostat to control the temperature for the bends. He insulated them with foam board and used stainless wire in the foam for a heating element to prevent freezing. He tapped into the 12 volt heating wire at 1.5 volts for the LED warning light so he would know when heat/power were being used as the thermostat was always on. It worked great for over 20 years for him.
