Stock Tank Saver 20 inches x 40 inches

# Stock Tank Saver – 20 in x 40 inches oval ###

A Smarter Way to Keep Stock Tanks Open in Winter & Cleaner in Summer Spend less time breaking ice, scrubbing algae and paying to heat water all winter.

The **6' Round Stock Tank Saver** is a simple, year-round solution designed to help protect livestock water from freezing temperatures, wind, debris and algae. The Stock Tank Saver floats on top of the water, creating a protective barrier between the water and the weather. Its domed design helps block cold winter winds and traps an insulating pocket of air over the water—similar to the way an insulated cooler helps hold temperature. By retaining more of the water's natural heat, the Stock Tank Saver can greatly reduce the amount of heat lost from an exposed stock tank.

## SAVE MONEY ALL WINTER Electric stock tank heaters can be expensive to operate during cold weather.

A typical **1,500-watt stock tank heater** uses 1.5 kWh of electricity every hour it runs.

At approximately **15¢ per kWh**, running one 1,500-watt heater: - **12 hours per day:** about **$2.75 per day / $82 per month** - **24 hours per day:** about **$5.50 per day / $165 per month** - Over a 90-day winter, that can equal approximately **$247–$495 in electricity for just ONE tank.

** The Stock Tank Saver helps hold the heat already in the water and protects the surface from wind, potentially reducing or eliminating the amount of time an electric tank heater needs to operate depending on temperatures, tank location and weather conditions.

Have multiple livestock tanks? The potential savings can add up quickly.

## LESS ALGAE. LESS SCRUBBING. CLEANER WATER.

The Stock Tank Saver keeps working after winter is over. During warm weather, sunlight reaching the water encourages green algae growth. The floating cover shades much of the water's surface and reduces UV exposure, helping **limit algae growth and keep your stock tank cleaner longer.

** That means:

- Less green algae buildup

- Fewer tank cleanings

- Less scrubbing and dumping water

- Less wasted water

- Cleaner-looking livestock tanks

- More time for the things that actually need done around the farm

## SIMPLE DESIGN — NO COMPLICATED INSTALLATION Simply place the Stock Tank Saver in your stock tank and let it float. Livestock can easily move the cover aside with their nose to access the water, and it moves back into place when they're finished drinking.
