Our customer John wrote in “I have a Ritchie waterer with a stainless steel water tub with a heater. The problem is the inlet water freezes from the ground to the waterer when it gets very cold. Was wondering what you would recommend either the cable heater or would you recommend the self regulating heat cable?”
Our engineer Ed answers this question in the following video.

We designed our automatic waterers to have our valve chamber cover fit into a water seal groove at the top of the waterer. During the winter, the groove creates a channel for water that will freeze the cover down. This is intentional. We want your waterer valve to have the maximum protection against the cold winter conditions. The ice forms a barrier that is fresh and new each time you remove the cover without the threat of having a gasket tear or crack.
Once frozen down, removing the lid may take a little work to remove. However our Engineer Ed explains in this video how to remove the lid and provides additional tips to ease removal in the future.

Our sales representative Tyler had a fantastic time during Clinton Anderson’s Downunder Horsemanship Walkabout Tour in Ogden, UT February 14th and 15th.
Ritchie Industries is a proud sponsor of the Walkabout Tour and the Ritchie ball toss. An event held during the tour that raises money for non-profit organizations. This event that organization was the Wasatch Front Jr High Rodeo Association and Cache Valley Jr High Rodeo Association and with tour participants help over $3,400 was raised for this wonderful organization.
We collected our photos and videos from the event and wrapped it up in the following video.

We are asked frequently about the differences between our yellow and green automatic waterers. The difference really comes down to one thing as our engineer Ed explains in this video.
No matter what color automatic waterer you choose, Ritchie provides the same quality, durability and reliability that our waterers are known for. We use the same components in each unit and the capacity for equal units are the same.
