Stock tank valve modification that will keep your water flowing in your stock tank. Install a needle valve to your brass valve. That will give you the flexibility to let the water drip when the temperature drops below freezing.

Thanks for all your videos great stuff. Im curious if you're tying a jobe float to this type of valve? I've already ordered mine and it works great but it came with a plastic float on a metal rod that you thread into the valve.

Thanks for watching!! We are using the jobe float on all our valves cause of durability. I've cows ruin floats before.

Thanks for the reply but I have one more question if you have the time. Currently we are running uninsulated irrigation to our stock tank in the fields​ Will the constant flow be enough to keep the lines from freezing during winter@@RussWilson

Why does this make it frost free? Great video but not sure what it does .

You are able to leave the needle valve on or run. Water coming out of the ground is 55 degrees. So the valve uses the geothermal heat make the tank freeze proof.

Hey Russ, You said in the description that you were speaking March 23 at the grazing conference. The brochure says the conference is March 11,12. Just wanted to make sure I wasn’t missing something.👍 Your videos are really a nice and interesting and always informative. I’m from East Palestine, Ohio which is 30 miles south of Youngstown.

What temperatures are you using this in? We get down to -35F in the winter and colder when you add wind chill.

What brand of valve is that? Does it work good with dirty pond water?
@RussWilson

Hey Kevin The valve is a Mueller Valve. There's a link in the description to buy one. It's a high flow valve and very simple. It should work with pond water.

Russ, another clever fix for one of those irritating problems. How many of your cows are carrying calves from the last video? I see that you will be speaking at the grazing conference in Clarion, I am looking forward to it. Kathy

No offense, but this is so much more work than necessary. All you have to do is drill a small hole in the side of the tank (which is free and takes 10 seconds) or put a small valve in the side of the tank. Accomplishes the same thing without having to take apart and damage a you’re valve.
