Summertime Cool Water

Hot water in traditional automatic horse waterers, tanks, or buckets limits water consumption. Decreased water consumption results in more trips to the vet and limited mental and body function.

With the Bar-Bar-A automatic waterer, horses have easy access to nice, cool water. This makes it much easier for them to stay hydrated throughout the scorching summer months.

Wintertime Warmer Water

Animals have the same problem of proper water consumption with the standing water exposed to the icy frigid air. Because the source water for our units comes from a buried water line, the temperature of the water is consistent. In the winter, the water is much warmer than standing water.

Whether you are in the hot hill country of Texas or the frosty New York Adirondacks, the Bar-Bar-A Horse Waterer gives your horses just what they need: clean, fresh water at the right temperature – and all this without algae or electricity.

Installation For Stalls Or Pastures

The Bar-Bar-A watering system may be installed in barns or pastures. They are equally effective in both settings. The unit is versatile in that it may be installed in a fence line or between two stalls, thus making it possible for horses on both sides of the divide to access the water.

Horses enjoy fresh-tasting water without all the algae that can grow in stagnant standing water. From 4 models to choose from, you can customize to fit your situation. If there is any confusion or you would like any clarification, our support team is happy to help you out.

Promote Healthy Horse Water Consumption

Your horse requires a constant source of clean and fresh water, the same as you. A horse’s body consists of approximately 70 percent water. Most experts agree that water is the most important element in a horse’s health. Feed, minerals, and vitamins are secondary to water.

While a horse can get by for over a week without food, they would only last a couple of days without water, highlighting the importance of promoting healthy horse water consumption. By utilizing an automatic horse waterer, you make it easier than ever to keep your horses happy and healthy.

Average Horse Daily Water Consumption

Your horse’s daily water consumption needs to equal the amount of water lost through urine and sweat in a 24-hour period. For an average-sized horse, that amounts to about 6-10 gallons per day.

A quick test to see if your horse is getting enough water is to softly pinch the skin on the neck and turn the skin right or left. Time how long it takes for the skin to resume its former position. Anything less than 2 seconds means that your horse is getting the proper amount of water.

Another way to check this is to fold your horse’s top lip back, and with your finger, press down firmly on the gum. Use the two-second rule to see how long it takes for the white made from the depression to fill back in with pink.

With the Bar-Bar-A automatic horse waterer, your concern for proper water consumption can be alleviated.
