The Ultimate Drinking Post Waterer receives water from below your local frost line with every use, so it can literally stand unused for years at a time and instantly produce fresh, clean, 50°F during any season of the year! These waterers will significantly mitigate the threat of West Nile Virus and algae build-up by eliminating the standing water associated with heated waterer solutions, buckets, and troughs. For colder climate regions, the PVC paddle will not freeze like an aluminum paddle.
Highlights:
- Easy to install (*only 3 moving parts - no cement pad, can fit into tight spaces, less digging, & no used tires required for cold climate installation)
- Low-maintenance (*interior components can be easily removed for maintenance without digging)
- Eliminate heated water costs during winter months (*no electricity required)
- There are no minimum usage requirements
- Mitigate the threat of West Nile Virus and algae build-up (*no standing water)
- Automatic (*providing fresher, cleaner water than any heated waterer, insulated waterer, or bucket/trough)
- 50°F during any season of the year (*no freezing!)
- 5-year warranty
Paddle
- ¼” stainless steel axle in paddle
- Set screw to adjust the paddle tension
- “Snow-Fin” technology at the paddle/rod intersection allows for easier activation (especially in snow, slushy, and icy conditions)
- Raised activation attachment for easy training and large muzzle animals
Bowl
- Massive hinge caps
- Metal thread to receive hinge cap bolt
- 1/4 -20 x 1.5" stainless steel sidewalk bolts for hinge cap/paddle connection
- All walls are approximately 50% thicker than the previous model
Valve
- Fully serviceable valve
- Can completely disassemble valves to clean/troubleshoot and then reassemble
- Stainless steel set pin secures the intake filter
- Exterior collar built into the valve
- Dual-durometer valve seal
- 50% larger drain holes
Installation Tips:
It's not a good idea to have the concrete right up next to the Drinking Post. This could lead to PVC cracking as it changes with the temperature. Ideally, there would be about a 1" gap between the waterer and the concrete.
Optimum Water Pressure Requirement: 25-65 PSI (*anything over 65 PSI will need a pressure reducer and anything under 25 PSI will not function properly)
