This model, the 96 deep, is the same waterer as the model 90, except the it’s a little bit longer and the bowl is deeper to hold more water. At times, when animals have been held off of water for awhile, (as in the case of milking a herd of cows), and then they are released back to the pen, they hit the fountains hard as they are T-H-I-R-S-T-Y. A head-start provided by a deeper fountain is helpful when all that water sucking is going on. But the shallower units have benefits too. They result in the water getting changed out more often which means the water will be fresher and harder to freeze up in the winter.The Watermaster Poly Fountain – NO HEAT – (Constant Flow option #18877 must be ordered separately if needed), this is the number one series for feed yards and dairies in the South. These fountains can best be described as “WORRY-FREE WORKHORSES”. An unbelievably tough, durable, dependable waterer. It has been reported that HUGE steers have stood in them without damage to the units. No more paint peeling, rusting or corroding of metal skins – the poly foam filled frames last for many, many years in the worst conditions in feedyards. In the industry, stray voltage is known to be an issue that affects how much water the animals on the property will drink. Poly is not a conductor of electricity so it does not transfer stray voltage to the sensitive lips of the animals. Like all Ritchie waterers, they are super rugged to take whatever you and your animals want to throw at it. But it is safe for your animals to be around with its smooth edges and corners. \u00a0The side panels are generous in size and easy to remove to gain water line access. Cleaning of the trough is easy. The Watermaster series are commonly used in feedyards & dairies where large numbers of animals need healthy water to drink in harsh conditions. Using an optional immersion heater and supply line cable heater would be the way to make these fountains even more winter ready.
