The Kelln Solar
Winter Watering system is the perfect solution for watering cattle
in the winter. Our winter water bowls are controlled by a motion
detection switch that will turn on when the animals approach for
water and turn off when there is no motion detected. To prevent
freezing, the water drains back to the source below the frost line.

Advantages
- Non Freezing:
All water drains back to source eliminating the possibility of
freezing.
- No Repairs:
Burn out or repairs are not a concern because this system is designed
without heating elements and adjustable controls
- Servicing:
Very basic system with no moving parts. The water bowl is easily
removed allowing access to the pump.
- Earth's
Resources: As the temperature below the frost line is 40 degrees,
the culvert acts as a heat tube allowing the hot air to rise preventing
freeze up.
- Variable
Installations: Kelln's Winter Water Bowl may be used with
pumps ranging from 3 GPM to 10 GPM. It can be easily hooked up
to the water supply.
- No Operating
Costs: No AC power? No Cost!
- Roto Molded
Water Bowl: Durable 24" roto molded water bowl eliminates
corrosion and rusting. The bowl sits on a 24" casing.
Setup
For dugout
applications the simplest system to set up is a gravity feed
line trenched from the dugout to a 24" by 24' long casing.
First you would dig in your 24 inch x 24 foot casing at the
location where you want it trying to keep your water level
at around 10 to 12 feet. Then you would trench in a 2" poly
line back to the dugout that will act as a gravity feed. From
the casing you would pump into the water bowl with our D27
dual pumps.
