Example Project, Ontario

200 grass fed cattle. A few 30 foot wells dug around the 40 hectare farm. Rather than run underground electrical wiring to these wells, one Blackstone Cattle Waterer placed on a skid can utilize the water around the farm.

 

The basic components of this system are:

 

24 V Solar Pump	$1,730
EnerCap Stock Tank	$2,500
Skid Mount	$520
Balance of System	$2,000
Shipping	~$500
TOTAL COST	$7,250

 

 

This example illustrates one of many options available. Pumps are sized to meet your individual livestock and water situation. Blackstone also offers a larger watering system for up to 300 head that requires no external heat source. Call us for more information.
