Glossary of terms

Float drinker

A float drinker is a vessel with a float that ensures that the water is kept at the right level. The float cuts off the water supply when the bowl is filled, and when the water table lowers, the float valve opens and the water is replenished. The automatic drinker provides continuous access to fresh water for the animals without the need for the breeder to replenish the bowl. Float plugs are a very good option for animals that overflow and waste water. The animal in this case does not affect the amount of water in the bowl. Depending on the type of animals, drinkers can be used for cattle, horses, poultry, dogs and cats.
