3-Gal Livestock Water Bowl LIVESTOCK Feeding Equipment 18-5-12 Cattle never have to wait for this "whopping big" 3-gal. water bowl to refill.
The "Lapp Cup" is 10 1/4 in. dia. and 8 in. deep. Fresh water comes in through the bottom of the bowl. A float valve controls water level.
"It's bigger than any other water bowl on the market. Water comes into the bowl as soon as the animal starts to drink so there's never a wait for water. Cows with a plentiful supply of water tend to produce more milk," says managing director Alvin Lapp. "There's no clapper or button to activate and no square corners so water's less likely to slop out of the bowl. Also, the water always stays clean. Fresh water coming into the bottom of the bowl creates a swirling motion that lifts sediment off the bottom of the bowl."
Mounts on any 1 1/4 to 2-in. dia. pipe. "We plan to offer a 10-watt silicone-wrapped heating element to keep water in the bowl from freezing. It'll mount inside a pocket where the float valve is located away from the water to eliminate the chance for shock."
Sells for about $60.00 equipped with stainless steel plate, $54.00 without the plate.
