  • Page 3: Installation

    INSTALLATION LOCATION: Locate waterer in a place sheltered from the prevailing winds for reduced energy consumption. Install the waterer 25 feet or more from self-feeders or bunk feeders to reduce the amount of feed and salt that is dropped into the waterer. WATER SUPPLY LINE: Horizontal underground waterline should be sized to account for any pressure drop relat- ing to distance.

    If the float should catch on any part of the waterer, its lateral position can be changed by loosening the large as- sembly nut (VP15) and turning the valve body slightly. If float is rubbing on the insulation in the valve cover you can trim the insulation with an ordinary knife.

  • Page 14 BROWER WATERERS AND ENERGY USE As energy costs continue to escalate, more attention is being focused on products which are more energy efficient. We’ve been sell- ing livestock waterers since 1963 and are continuing our tradition of leadership. Newly introduced is the best insulation on the market which is standard on all automatic cattle waterers and hog waterers.
  • Page 15 IMPROVEMENT OPTIONS Install the waterer with an insulated thermal break between the waterer and the concrete foundation to prevent transmitting heat to the floor. Install the waterer over a 12- to 20-inch tile extending from the waterer base to below the frost line. Buy well-insulated waterers with lids when replacing old units.
