The best warranty in the business

We stand behind what we build. That’s why our polyethylene (poly) waterers are backed by a 10-year limited warranty* and our stainless-steel troughs are covered by a 10-year, 100% warranty against manufacturing defects and corrosion.

It’s simple: Reliable products should come with a warranty to match.
