[QUOTE="Ritchie Industries, post: 1179476, member: 22987"] Craig, if you have an older Ritchie, we do have the more energy efficient waterers with a fully insulated base. Even using a waterer with similar wattage to what you currently have the poly base will help retain the heat keeping energy cost to a minimum. PDFangus - regarding your white closures, ensure that they are sitting at least 1/2" - 1" below the rim. This will allow water to wash off the side and not pool around the edges, reducing the opportunity for these parts to freeze along the red rim. With this setting, the water will lose about 1 degree per hour if not in use. Let us know if you have any questions about winter preparation as we know the harsh winter is right around the corner.
