[QUOTE="lakeportfarms, post: 726283, member: 9413"] All good advice, but with global warming coming and getting worse and worse by the day, it it would be very costly to take those steps for the short term (sarcasm). If you're worried about pipes bursting get the heat tape. If you think insulating the pipe may be enough to stop from freezing you could use that without breaking the bank. And to possibly avoid having to find a tank heater just cut some 10" or so pieces of foam insulation board to float on top of the stock tank and cover a lot of the surface area. The cattle still poke their heads in to drink, and it really cuts down on the amount of ice that will form. [/QUOTE]
