- Easy Maintenance: Features a large access panel for hassle-free cleaning and upkeep.
- Livestock Capacity: Supplies water for 1-20 horses or cattle.
- Ready to Install: Comes complete for connection to your water and electric lines.
- Anchoring Recommendation: Use 4 stainless steel anchor bolts (5" x 3/8") for securing to a concrete pad.
- Warranty: Backed by a 10-year warranty.
Additional Accessories and Considerations:
- Anchor Bolts: Use 5" x 3/8" anchor bolts to secure the unit.
- Sealant: Apply an all-weather sealant around the base to prevent air gaps and cold from penetrating underneath.
- Electric Requirements: The Omni Series requires electricity for its heating system but remains energy efficient throughout winter.
- Water Pressure Regulation: High water pressure exceeding 60 PSI may cause valve leaks. Install a pressure regulator to maintain optimal performance.
- Stop and Waste Valve: Consider adding one to drain the line back to the source when not in use. This is a long-term solution to protect your waterline.
- Level Installation: Ensure the waterer is installed on a level surface for proper operation.
To install a Ritchie automatic waterer, you’ll need a buried waterline and a concrete pad.
