Imagine going through a winter without breaking ice. No float valves to adjust. Never topping off the water tanks again. Fresh year round 50 degree water every time the animal drinks. Never finding, and removing that bloated critter floating around in the livestock tank. No moss or sunken tumble weeds. No open water for mosquitoes to breed in (equine encephalitis, zika virus). All in a device that takes up as much space in the pen as a potted plant. This all adds up to healthier animals and happier people. Your horses and cattle will have fresher water than your house dog. Excellent choice for horse boarders or. With simple, quick disinfection and cleaning. No minimum number of animals, this waterer will stay frost free with just one animal, our none at all.

By draining all water back below the frost line every time the paddle is released by the animal. Typically less than 1 cup of water is drained back.

We finally got our watering post installed on Saturday and absolutely love it, as do our horses. It didn’t take our boys too terribly long to figure it out. I did take a short video I could text to you if you’d like of our Peruvian Paso. He struggled a bit to figure where the water came from, but eventually after watching the others he got it. Of course, it’s his new favorite toy now. The gentleman who installed it and whom you spoke with (Rooster Boggs), really liked it and said it was the best design he had seen. He’s very interested in promoting and installing for some clients here. Larry, just wanted to say that we are really happy with our watering post. In our first winter in Montana, we have had temps down to -15 so far and the watering post has not had any problems. We tell everyone about how well it works for our horses. Love love love the watering post!!! I have it for 7 horses and it is split for three pastures! I’m a Michigander so winters are always a pain pulling frozen hoses in and not to mention the electric bill lets just say… Winter finally broke here in PA and we are ready to install some more watering posts. A little story from this awful winter we just had. We have frost free hydrants in all the deer pens. We have watering posts in 2 of those pens. We had repeated spells of below zero temps with 20-30 below wind chills. We had 3 of our hydrants freeze so hard that they just finally thawed here in the last month!! THE POSTS DID NOT FREEZE!! Gotta tell you we were very impressed. Because of the way a couple of our pens are set up, Josh was going to put Ri–ie waterers in those pens, but because of how impressed we were with the posts in the prolonged sub zero weather we have decided to go with all watering posts! Happy New Year Larry! So nice to not worry about the horses’ water this winter! They are almost maintenance free now, and it’s a good thing because I broke my right arm a few weeks back and still not fully recuperated so John is doing all horse care — and yes he has said several times that the hard work of installing the post is definitely paying off now. BTW, I love the picture of the deer drinking out of the post! We had a few days of sub-zero temperatures (-22) and your watering post did just fine. I have sent a photo of what it looks like at 22 below 0-. Larry I finally was able to get the watering post put in Dec. Today the R—ie fountain was froze up as this picture shows. I have 40 feeders in two lots and the 2 watering post side by side. I hope you enjoy the pictures.
