- The OmniFount unit arrives fully equipped and ready for connection to your electric and water lines.
- For secure installation, 4 stainless steel anchor bolts (5" x 3/8" part 16555) are recommended to anchor the unit to the concrete pad.
- Backed by a robust 10-year prorated warranty for peace of mind.
- Each unit will require 5" x 3/8" anchor bolts
- An all weather sealant around the base of the unit will prevent air gaps and cold from penetrating the underside of the unit.
- The Omni Series will need electric for the heat system yet will be energy efficient throughout the winter
- If you have high water pressure - water pressure that exceeded 60 PSI may cause the valve to leak. Install a pressure regulator on the line.
- Consider placing a stop and waste valve on the waterline to drain the line back to the original source. Automatic waterer installation are considered long-term and the stop and waste valve will be a nice, not often used, that will protect your line in the event it's not in use.
- Ensure the waterer is installed level.
Each Ritchie automatic waterer will require a buried waterline and a concrete pad.

We already had one of same ordered several years ago. So when the other, old drinker was beyond repair, we ordered another like the first. GREAT service PROMPT. Hopefully we won’t need another any time soon. Thank you. Nice doing business with you.
This is my second unit. Not a replacement but an additional. They work great through Wisconsin winters. Pete supply has great prices and ships fast
It was great working with you. I know who to call for parts and waterers in the future.
The heater arrived promptly and just like as advertised. Great company to work with and I would definitely buy from them again.
I love my Ritchie Omni 2! This winter in Northern MN has been incredibly cold with temps in the -40°F! This heated watered supplies 4 horses with all the perfectly warmed fresh water they need. They all took to drinking out of the new water tank that day or the next. Even my 16yo mare took to drinking from the waterer within couple days. I recommend this waterer. It gives me such a sense of security knowing I don’t have to haul water when it’s in the negative temps.
