Pride of the Farm 100% Energy-Free Drinkers

Pride of the Farm manufactures nine different models of 100% Energy-Free Drinkers. The company says energy free design consistently outperforms other designs. Animals find flaps easier to operate than ball or float closures. Animals instinctively have a rooting reflex moments after they are born and the same instinct will motivate an animal to butt or lift up the flap on the drinker. Pride of the Farm’s flap design results in cleaner water than a ball or float closure. The flaps are positioned at an angle, not on a flat surface. This rain shed design greatly reduces the incidence of water contamination from materials laying on a flat surface. Pride of the Farm’s energy-free design works under the severest cold and wind chill conditions. With proper installation and not other sources of water, and sufficient numbers of animals drinking, the drinkers will stay open with no supplemental heat.
