Livestock Water Heaters

These heaters are not going to soak you for your valuable dollars this winter. Heaters use regular household lightbulbs to prevent water from freezing. Your electric bills will decrease significantly compared to conventional drop heaters. There are no parts to replace except the occasional lightbulb (larger models use more than one bulb).

Coming soon: 17 1/2 gallon heaters!

Options include, but are not limited to:

wood, steel, or aluminum sides

single or multiple buckets, difference in bucket sizes

timers are available

treated wood or cedar

comes with appropriate size bucket

For pricing on water heaters, call Jason at (231) 590-8551 or e-mail. Prices vary due to sizes and materials. These heaters are made to order for your personal farming needs.

This heater supplies five gallons of water. It has worked well for our mini stallion and his llama friend during the winter. This winter was the first that our mini did not colic due to a lack of water. We could never get him to drink enough. What a pleasant second savings in addition to the money saved from electricity. This model has the wood siding with an aluminum top.

This model works well with our female llama herd. It is short enough for the goat to get a drink and the buckets are easily removed for a quick cleaning. As the model above, the sides are made of wood while the top is made of aluminum.
