Subject: Ritchie...

makes a good poly electric/energy free fountain. Use a 14" solid plastic tile down about 5 ' below the fountain for your heat well and you can also use a insulated tube inside of it if needed(probably will in Wyoming). If available I would run electric in the trench and install the heat element but put it on a breaker and use it only if needed. It will save you a ton of money. Trick is to have enough head drinking on it and some sort of wind break. Doesn't have to be fancy, just deflect the wind. This isn't Wyoming but it does get pretty cold sometimes. I have Ritchies, Mirafount, and old Pride of the Farm auto waters and the new Ritchies are the best IMO.
