RE: [SPAM] Re: [RC] heated waterers - heidi

I can't remember the brand name, but the ones I have have that float 
mechanism.  That part was fine, but the heaters went out in less than one 
winter.  The manufacturer told me it was probably too cold where I live.  My 
thought was that we have relatively mild winters (only very occasionally much 
below freezing), so I'm not sure why they made the heaters if they could not 
withstand our winters. 

Both Browers and Ritchies are designed for -40F, and we consulted with
friends in Wyoming who have had their Browers withstand even colder
than that for some installation tips.  Ours have gone three winters
now, and are heading into their 4th winter soon.
