Hi all i have three dogs. In the summer they only want to come in to drink a ton of water and then are back outside. (they have a fenced in area to run and play). i want to make an automatic dog waterer.
there are many different designs, most use a float valve which they will eat, i can see that being a bad thing now.
but there is one out there that uses a
pressure sensitive diaphram fill valve. After googling that i found its a valve thats also used in sump pumps. I want to add one to a bucket or gavlanized conatiner and then connect it to the house with a stainless steel hose. once again to prevent it from being chewed to pieces. (they have eaten chairs, tables umbrellas, they are just chewy dogs.
1. anyone know where to buy a pressure sensitive diaphram fill valve.
2. what size would i need to allow the attachment of a stainless steel hose.
Appreciate it. I figured some of you might have similar items for different barn animals.
Thanks,
