Homesteading & Drinking Post

The art of living a self-sufficient life.

The Drinking Post Waterer is a great addition to any homestead with animals. There’s no electricity, so you can easily provide your animals with fresh, clean water without having to heat their water. The Drinking Post fills and drains with each use, so the water will never freeze or grow algae. Eliminate your watering chores and focus your time on what’s important – your homestead!

No electricity

The Drinking Post is the only reliable automatic waterer that doesn’t require electricity.  For homesteaders, it’s important to have equipment that isn’t dependent on electricity. The Drinking Post can be used on homesteads in extreme climates, from hot Southern summers to cold Northern winters! The Drinking Post can stay frost-free in temps as low as -50 F/-45.5 C without the use of a heater. This means you don’t have to run electricity during installation! Just connect the Drinking Post to your pressurized waterline. This will eliminate the cost of heating your animals’ water, and removes all the complications of dealing with heated water. You won’t have to worry about the heaters going out, or your animals chewing on or playing with the wires, and you won’t have to worry about the potential for electric shock (water and electricity do NOT mix!). The Drinking Post removes all those concerns and provides fresh, frost-free water all winter long.

Versatility

The Drinking Post is very versatile! It can be shared between multiple species and can be installed almost anywhere! We sell many different lengths, from 2′ to 10′ long, so you can get the perfect size for your climate and animal type. If you have multiple species that share water, the Drinking Post is a great option! You can set the bowl height where ever you’d like, just make sure your shortest animal can reach! We also have different paddle attachments that can be shared between species. The Drinking Post can also be installed almost anywhere, whether it’s in your pasture, corral, shed, or barn! It has a small footprint, so you don’t have to have a lot of space at the installation location.

Easy maintenance

The Drinking Post is very easy to maintain, which sets it apart from other auto waterers. The interior of the Drinking Post holds all the working parts and is an independent, removable piece. The allows you to access all the working parts above ground by simply pulling the interior out. Even the valve is part of the interior! This means you can easily work on the Drinking Post in your barn or workshop area instead of at the installation location! With most other auto waterers, you have to do the maintenance outside! The Drinking Post allows you to do the maintenance in the comfort and warmth of your barn or garage!  The Drinking Post also has a comprehensive 5 year warranty on every single part. The valve is very simple, with only 4 working parts. Most other auto waterers have very complex valves with many parts, which makes maintenance more difficult.
