Hello.
We have installed a well to serve a remote pasture.
We are looking at using solar panels so want to keep power use to minimum.
The animal waterer is a type of yard hydrant (Drinking Post) so no extra electricity is needed for that. In winter the maximum flow would be about 45 gallons per day. Double that in summer.
We are near Ottawa so freezing is a prime concern. The frost line is at least 48".
Is there a type of tankless pump that could live in the well and not need a tank?
Is there a safe way to bury the tank below the frost line?
Our plan B is to make a "doghouse" for the tank and batteries etc and insulate it like crazy.
Any suggestions?
