HorsesOnly > March 27, 2006 ~ "I just wanted to say a word about our solar waterers. We got our first one Dec '02. and have purchased 4 more since then. We live in western Wyoming about an hour south of Jackson Hole, on the Idaho Border; between Caribou Mtns of Idaho and the Bridger Tetons of Wyoming. The elevation is 6200 feet and we have winter and lots of it. Beginning Oct and maybe ending, the end of April. 

Today, when these pics were taken, we still have 3 feet of snow on the valley floor. We are A Classic Touch and raise ASPC/AMHR Shetlands/Miniatures, the one in the picture is about 30" and we have about 30 head. Before our solar waterers .... which we love, we had the galvanized and rubber tanks with float heaters which always went out at inappropriate times and were very expensive to run for winters, such as ours. We have temperatures in the 30-40 below zero in the winter and this winter, we have had it every month for a week or more at a time, in the subzero temperature range. 

They are cleaner and easier to use and cooler in the summer. We say THANK YOU Amesco, for the best thing, for us. We tell everyone, how great we think they are!"

HorsesOnly > "I used the 42 gallon trough for 18 years with temperatures down to 50 below.  It's built to last! It takes out all the work in watering horses & cattle.  It's the best waterer I ever used!  There is always water for livestock instead of ice. Using it year around, it keeps water cool in the summertime, and stays clean with no algae. They need a minimum of upkeep and there are no electric or fuel bills!  I used a 25 gallon trough last winter and it works as great as the big one!"

HorsesOnly > Dear Amesco, 
"I wish to thank you for making my life easier. Since the purchase of 8 BOB TROUGHS in Sept, 2000, keeping horses watered is a snap!  I especially like:

1: Solid Construction.

2. Ease of filling.

3. I have winter temperatures under -20 degrees F. The water has not frozen.  Always available for horses to drink.

4. Easy to clean.  As I operate a horse motel, many different horses come and go.  I put 1/4 cup of bleach in a full tank ... leave it 24 hours or less ... drain ... flush.  The tank is clean for another horse.

5. Overnight horses have had no difficulties drinking the first time from the tank.

6. My tanks are one of the best investments I have made!"
 ~Kathryn K.,  Lander, WY
HorsesOnly > "Just thought I would let you know how very pleased I am with the BOB TROUGH.  We have been in a cold snap for the last week, almost -40 Celsius with the wind chill and the water just doesn't freeze.

I am so happy and so are the horses! 

Thanks so much,  you have designed an amazing thing and I know it will catch on.  I wish you all the best!"

HorsesOnly > The 42 gallon Sun Tank is very versatile,  as you can fill with a garden hose or have a direct line attached with auto fill and shut-off float to keep full. This 42 gallon unit is guaranteed to 50F degrees  below zero --  25 gallon unit guaranteed to -20 degrees below zero -- during winter conditions with wind chill factor included!
HorsesOnly > "Just a little note to say thanks for being so patient with me and answering all my questions about the BOB TROUGH.  It has exceeded my expectations.  This year, southern New England had the coldest, snowiest winter in decades!  It was a huge comfort for me to know that my 2 horses had water available 24/7 !

It was very easy to train them to drink from it and we never experienced any freezing problems.  We had nights that were -20 to - 30 below with gusting winds.

I have been telling everyone about your product."
  ~ Michelle Z,  New England.
