[QUOTE="RDFF, post: 1782332, member: 39018"] I just installed two of these right before hard freeze up. [ATTACH type="full"]24811[/ATTACH] It's continuous flow... which keeps it open for me in the wintertime. The 4" PVC drain in the center is hooked up to my field tile, for the overflow. Here's one of them, at -14F, fully exposed to NW 40-50 mph winds, in the middle of our recent Minnesota Christmas blizzard. I have never chopped the ice on these yet. The water level is down on this pic because a bunch of cows had just left it. This blizzard was a nasty one! Water supply is 1 1/4" 160 PSI black poly from my well. Used a Jobe Topaz valve, with their "FrostPro" installed for the continuous flow part when the main valve closes. Pretty minimal flow required to keep them open.
