Double Heated Frost-Free Cattle Waterer

The Double Heated Frost-Free Cattle Waterer is an automatic two-drink livestock watering unit developed for dependable operation during freezing weather. Its insulated housing reduces heat loss, while thermostatically controlled electric heating helps keep the stainless-steel drinking trough and critical water components operational in cold conditions.

The double-drink layout allows cattle to access water from two positions and is particularly useful for small pens, paddocks and split-fence installations. Automatic refill maintains the required drinking level as livestock consume water, reducing manual filling requirements.

The system is suitable for dairy farms, beef cattle operations, breeding farms and steel structure livestock projects in cold climates. Heating power, voltage, water inlet configuration and frost-protection accessories can be adapted according to local climate and farm conditions.

• Double Drinking Positions: Two drinking openings provide convenient access for cattle and suit split-fence installations.
• Thermostatic Electric Heating: Heating is controlled according to temperature to help prevent freezing while limiting unnecessary energy use.
• Insulated Housing: Fully insulated casing helps retain heat around the waterer during severe winter conditions.
• Stainless Steel Trough: Corrosion-resistant drinking components provide durability and convenient cleaning.
• Automatic Refill: Float-controlled water supply maintains the operating level as cattle drink.
• Thermal Drinking Caps: Floating insulated caps help reduce winter heat loss while allowing livestock access to water.
• Flip-Top Service Cover: Hinged access simplifies routine cleaning, valve inspection and heater maintenance.
• Cold-Weather Water-Line Protection: Thermal tube and cable-heater options can protect the vertical supply line and valve area.
• Compact Farm Installation: Suitable for small cattle pens, paddocks and controlled livestock watering points.
• Project Configuration: Electrical supply, plumbing arrangement and winter protection can be selected according to farm requirements.

• Fully insulated outer housing
• Double drinking wells
• Stainless steel water trough
• Two floating thermal caps
• Electric heating elements
• Adjustable disc thermostat
• Automatic float valve
• Water-level control assembly
• Flip-top maintenance cover
• Drain plug and overflow system
• Optional cable heater
• Optional underground thermal tube
• Anchoring hardware

The waterer is connected to the farm water line through a protected supply riser. As cattle drink, the float mechanism detects the falling water level and opens the inlet valve to restore the preset level automatically.

During freezing weather, the thermostat activates the electric heating system when required. Heat is transferred to the stainless-steel trough, while the insulated cabinet and floating thermal caps help reduce heat loss from the stored water.

Where severe frost is expected, a thermal tube and supplementary cable heater can be used to protect the incoming water line and valve chamber. Correct placement of the supply line below local frost depth is important for reliable winter performance.

Reference dimensional, heating and herd-capacity data are based on the EcoFount 2 configuration. Final specifications should be confirmed according to project requirements, electrical standards, cattle numbers and local winter conditions.

• Commercial dairy cattle farms
• Beef cattle farms and ranches
• Small cattle pens and paddocks
• Split-fence watering stations
• Cold-climate feedlots
• Heifer and replacement cattle housing
• Outdoor livestock yards
• Cattle breeding centers
• Steel structure cattle barns
• Winter livestock watering projects
• Farm renovation and expansion projects

SHEWUYOU can configure double heated cattle waterers according to herd size, minimum winter temperature, water pressure and livestock building requirements.

• Electrical voltage and frequency
• Heating power according to local climate
• High-pressure or low-pressure water valve
• Water inlet connection
• Thermal supply-line tube length
• Supplementary cable heating
• Drain and overflow arrangement
• Anchoring hardware
• Split-fence installation layout
• Complete farm water-line accessories
• OEM labeling and project packaging

The waterer should be installed on a level concrete pad with the incoming water line and electrical conduit prepared before final positioning. The supply riser should be protected according to the local frost depth and winter temperature.

• Prepare a level concrete base with adequate drainage around the waterer.
• Install the incoming water line below the local frost depth where required.
• Use a thermal tube around the vertical water riser for cold-weather protection.
• Anchor the waterer securely to the concrete base.
• Connect the automatic water valve according to the specified pressure range.
• Connect heating components in accordance with local electrical regulations.
• Provide appropriate grounding and electrical protection for wet livestock environments.
• Adjust the thermostat before severe winter conditions begin.
• Open the flip-top cover regularly to clean the drinking wells and inspect internal components.
• Inspect heaters, cable protection, float valve and seals before each winter season.

Q1: What is a double heated frost-free cattle waterer?

It is an automatic livestock drinker with two drinking positions, insulation and electric heating designed to maintain usable water during freezing weather.

Q2: How does the heating system work?

A thermostat activates electric heating elements when required, while the insulated housing and thermal caps help reduce heat loss.

Q3: What is the advantage of two drinking positions?

Two drinking openings allow more flexible livestock access and make the unit suitable for installation along a fence between two pens or paddocks.

Q4: Does the waterer refill automatically?

Yes. An internal float valve maintains the required water level automatically as cattle drink.

Q5: How many cattle can one unit serve?

The referenced configuration is rated for up to 30 dairy cattle or 60 beef cattle under suitable water-supply and operating conditions.

Q6: Does the supply pipe need frost protection?

Yes. The incoming water line should be installed according to local frost-depth requirements, with thermal tubing or supplementary heating where required.

Q7: Is routine cleaning difficult?

No. Flip-top access and drain components are designed to simplify cleaning and service of the drinking wells and internal water system.

Q8: Can SHEWUYOU configure the waterer for different electrical standards?

Yes. Electrical supply, heating capacity, water inlet and cold-weather protection can be configured according to project requirements and destination-market standards.
