    I am curious how well these have worked in Montana winters?

    These have been used successfully in temps as low as -30 degrees fahrenheit. Proper installation and ground water source is key to effectiveness in very cold conditions. It is important to install the water line below the frost line in the ground.

    Here is an exact quote from the manufacturer: "Heat energy is provided by ground water entering the drinker between 45 degrees F and 56 degrees F. (7 C - 13 C).
    POLAR MAX DRINKERS are heavily insulated to hold the heat provided by ground water. As further protection, unique, patented baffles isolate drinking water from the main energy storage body under the valve cover. Drinking activity replenishes heat gradually lost. The minimal water drinking activity needed should result in water being replaced twice a day (5-15 animals depending on drinker capacity, size of animals, and whether or not the drinker is sheltered). If entering water is less than about 40 degrees F (4.4 C), such as water from a pond, mountain spring or colder ground water, you may experience icing in the drinker openings. "
