southern MN | You need to break ice in Missouri? Wow. Did you install it right? Low water level, deep enough tube, etc?
Mine will stay ice free at 20 below if there is no wind and several cattle are drinking. I think I'm a lot coleder climate up here. We have had troubles with 5 foot deep water lines freezing up the past 2 years, the Cobett has worked well through that.
What freezes mine over is wind chill; or if the water level is too high in it; or if the cattle are out in stalks and don't come in to drink for 12+ hours.
Person probably should check a waterer once a day anyhow, so even if it skims over an inch of ice, pretty easy to whack with a hammer and good for another 24 hours.
