LIVESTOCK WATER SYSTEMS
Solar pumps, stock tanks, automatic waterers, and complete water systems built for Kansas cattle operations.
Livestock Water Systems
Solar pumps, stock tanks, automatic waterers, and complete water systems built for Kansas cattle operations.
Reliable water for your livestock, anywhere on your property
A windmill is two systems in one — the mechanical head and tower above ground, and the well, pump cylinder, and sucker rod below. Problems can happen in either half. A seized gearbox is obvious — you can see the fan isn't turning. But a broken sucker rod or worn pump leathers downhole will stop your water just the same, even while the blades keep spinning.
We service both sides — the mechanical windmill components and the well infrastructure underneath. We also relocate windmills when a well has gone dry or is no longer usable, moving the full tower and head assembly to a new well site.

What we install
Ritchie automatic waterers
Frost-free, constant-access waterers that keep water available and unfrozen through Kansas winters. Built for durability, they're designed to handle heavy cattle use without breaking down.
Built for Kansas winters — insulated construction keeps water flowing even in sub-zero temps.
Built for Kansas winters — insulated construction keeps water flowing even in sub-zero temps.
Low-maintenance design — no daily thawing or tank babysitting.
Solar-powered Pumps
Off-grid submersible pumps powered entirely by solar panels, delivering water to remote pastures where electricity doesn't reach. No fuel to haul, no generators to maintain — just quiet, automatic watering from sunrise to sunset.
Ideal for remote pastures — place water anywhere there's sun, regardless of power line access.
Zero operating cost — no electric bill, no diesel, no daily run checks.
Low-maintenance design — few moving parts, minimal wear, and panels that simply need an occasional wipe.
Scalable systems — we size the panel array and pump to match your herd size and well depth, from small pastures to large feedlots.
Large Rubber tire tanks
Extremely durable tanks made from repurposed heavy-duty truck tires — built to withstand the punishment of cattle, horses, and Kansas weather. Unlike steel or plastic, they won't dent, crack, or split under pressure.
Durable — no cracks from freezing, no dents from livestock, no UV degradation.
Natural insulation — the black rubber absorbs sunlight, reducing ice buildup in winter and keeping water cooler in summer.
Low-maintenance — smooth interior resists algae growth and is easy to scrub down when needed.
Sizes for any herd — we offer multiple diameters to match your operation, from small pastures to large feedlot pens.

How we build your water system
Every property and operation has different needs. Here's how we approach a livestock water system project.
Site visit and planning — We walk your property to understand the layout — where the livestock need water, where the wells are, how far the runs will be, and whether power is available. This determines whether solar, windmill, or electric pumping is the best fit.
System design — Based on herd size, pasture layout, and water demand, we recommend the right combination of pump, tank, and waterer. A 20-head pasture needs a different setup than a 200-head feedlot.
Installation — We handle everything — well pump, solar panel mounting, water lines, tank placement, and waterer installation. The goal is a turnkey system you don't have to think about once it's running.
Seasonal check and maintenance — We can return for annual checks to make sure solar panels are clean, pumps are performing, and tanks and waterers are ready for winter.

EXPERT ANSWERS
We believe in total transparency when it comes to your water systems. Whether you're curious about new well costs or the lifespan of your pump, get the straight answers you need to make an informed decision.
How does a solar-powered livestock water system work?
A solar panel charges a controller that powers a small submersible pump in your well. The pump pushes water to a stock tank whenever the sun is out. Most systems include enough tank capacity to keep water available overnight and on cloudy days without any battery storage needed.
Will my stock tank freeze in winter?
It depends on the setup. Standard corrugated tanks will develop ice in Kansas winters. Ritchie automatic waterers are insulated and heated to prevent freezing. Large rubber tire tanks resist ice better than steel due to insulation and solar heat absorption, but they're not freeze-proof. We can help you pick the right option based on your winter needs.
How far can you run water from the well to the tank?
It depends on the pump capacity and terrain, but we regularly install systems with runs of several hundred yards or more. Longer distances just require sizing the pump and pipe correctly — we handle that during the design phase.
