Re: [RC] heated waterers - bsbat

Dyane, what kind of winters are they expected to withstand?  What area do
you live in?  We live on the north coast and we rarely freeze.

I can't remember the brand name, but the ones I have have that float
mechanism.  That part was fine, but the heaters went out in less than
one winter.  The manufacturer told me it was probably too cold where I
live.  My thought was that we have relatively mild winters (only very
occasionally much below freezing), so I'm not sure why they made the
heaters if they could not withstand our winters.

Anyway, another point of view.

  I forgot to mention that waterers I have in my pasture would probably
also work in my barn.  They have a float mechanism (looks like from a
toilet float but completely covered) that cost about $5.00 that bolts
through a plastic tub/bucket/whatever plastic you want to attach it
to.  It refills itself based on the water level.  This doesn't have
any type of heater attached so not sure if it would work for cold
weather spots in winter but works for us <spoiled> Kelly-4-nians (as
our goovenator says).

  Cheers!
