[QUOTE="talltimber, post: 1426109, member: 22236"] I use three mira fount two ball waters and a behlen four ball. An extended cold spell I have had the balls freeze on each of them when there is no stock with access to them. I have had none of them freeze with as little as a couple of head on them. You get some freezing rain or sleet and the balls may freeze to the housing, but break it loose and they have water. It will not freeze on the inside. They all work good. The install is a concrete pad big enough for the front feet to get up on, about four inches thick. A hole in the middle of the pad allows about a twelve inch corrugated plastic pipe to be flush at the top and extend to the bottom of the hole. The plumbing comes in the side of the hole. Works good.
