What about using a large cooler combined with a small heater?
I know some coolers can be very efficient at keeping temperatures stable. Some claim to keep ice solid for a week. Throw a small heater in and you may be set indefinitely.

You've given me something to think about and work with here.
Garage is insulated.
It is in use. I park my car inside and the snow is gone by the morning.
After reading your post I paid attention to the floor and the water is not frozen or icy.
What I've noticed is that.. I have a bottle of Olive oil that seems frozen or atleast by the looks of it.. maybe its just curdy now. The pop cans don't freeze at all but they are chilled to the maxx.
I'm thinking If I insulate the water containers and build a small insulated cabinet for the RO/DI I may be able to get away in the -30 plus weather.
