Trough-O-Matic® Stock Tank Float Valve with Plastic Housing

$18.99 USD

Back before we watered from a creek, this is the exact float valve I used for 100% fresh, algae-free water for my herd.  If you pair this with a smaller container, the water is constantly emptying and refilling, which greatly limits both algae growth and mosquito hatches.

To use this, pair it with a water trough that has some sort of lip, even a small one (for my exact setup, buy the red bowl here).  This is where you'll screw tighten the housing to stay in place.  Though less than ideal, you can also use a chunk of wood against the water trough to help stabilize it.

The third image is my current setup for the chickens, using the aluminum version of this float valve.  This hose is attached to a 50-gallon barrel that has another float valve, which gives me a reserve in case of power outages.  Used in this way, I can also add water soluble remedies to their water, such as herbal teas or colloidal silver.

Be sure to remove during freezing weather!
