Subject: Re: heated livestock waterer ?



I'll be durned if I can find a picture of one, or even a website. MFA here sells a brand called "Freedom Fount". They use a flat infrared pad under the drinks. The waterer itself is all plastic. The only thing I've replaced on them in 10 years or so is a couple of floats and a little thermostat that turns the pad on and off. They are simple to replace and cheap. The pads themselves are really holding up well. My main complaint with them is that the drinks only hold about 5 gallons and it's just not enough when several cattle come up to drink at once. When it's really cold the drinks will skim over but the waterers themselves are still fine.
