[QUOTE="AudieWyoming, post: 740395, member: 13669"] We used the Hoskins red top tanks at the dairy. They were pretty trouble free, the stanless tanks were easy to clean. I liked that the big heater units were under the tank not in the water. The valves would freeze up on very cold nights, we thawed them with buckets of hot water. I put the big blue concrete tanks (from Iowa, can't think of the brand) with the element under the hood at the Wyoming ranch. I had to add a small heater or heat lamp on a thermostat underneath any way. If the valve gets sand in it or trickles the over run freeze and thaw damages the concrete over time. @ [/QUOTE]
