Is that concreate at the bottom enough to properly seal the tank. Is it not necessary to use a rubber sealant in order to establish a watertight seal between the rubber and the concreate?
Thanks for the question! The brass valve and float can be found locally at Ron’s discount lumber, the Farmers Co-op, or Ace Hardware. There is no name brand on them. Some of the rotational grazing supply catalogs may carry them.
So. The tires are NOT being treated. Therefore if your livestock is drinking from them they will be drinking tire water. Does not sound like a healthy thing to do if u ask me. Would u drink water from a tire?
Travis, At the 2015 water quality workshop, NRCS' Amber Reece reported the results of a study comparing water quality from various sources (e.g. ponds, rural water) and watering points (tire tanks, commercial poly tanks, ponds). You can read more detail here if you are interested (kerrcenter.com/clear-cool-water-livestock-watering-workshop/), but the upshot was that water supplied via tire tanks is of comparable quality to that in any of the other systems included in the study. Thanks for your interest!
I'm sure you've put worse in your mouth... I'm not trying to be rude, but most water buckets are made of rubber and if I were you, I definitely wouldn't research how they recycle the plastic crap, that we get our drinks from. Or worse yet, definitely don't read the AP report about what they find in the drinking water that comes from the water treatment facilities... That was kind of a dick headed comment...
I think this is an awesome idea. Keeps cattle off frozen ponds since they don't freeze up. I will be adding a couple this fall

Do you drink water out of a plastic bottle?
Sure you do!
Let me guess - you're a pathetic democrat liberal!!
