[QUOTE="Running Arrow Bill, post: 137738, member: 9"] Canada is a lot different than Texas as to climate. However, there are some realistic methods to get and keep water, even where you are. First of all is you have a well with a pump in it, you could put in a large storage tank (say 1000 to 3000 gallons), set on a concrete or treated wood platform. Then build an insulated building around the tank. Put in an electric heater in the building to keep inside temperature above 32 deg. F. Then, a line from the bottom of the tank to a freeze proof faucet or other outlet that is lower than the tank (for gravity drainage) to fill an outside stock tank. Thus, tank in an insulated building with portable heater, fill tank from well pump, empty tank into stock tank via gravity drainage to a lower point. Not the cheapest thing to do; however, it will work while providing a storage of water. [/QUOTE]
