I am going to tanks outside my stalls in their paddocks, like you. However, I went with the Rubbermaid tank that has a screw-in plug and I put an adapter there to put a hose bib on. I can then attach a hose to that and drain it when I want to clean the tank. I saw that set up on RUclips. My long-term goal is to be able to quite dragging hoses around!!
The valves are brass, connected to galvanized, I ran pex through the ceiling and then connected to galvanized again on the outside so the horses don’t break it.
Well done mate 🙏🏻
Very smart system. I have the same in my dog kennel.
Nice setup! This is very similar to what I have in mind for our goat barn, in the kidding stalls.

Brilliant!
Nice dude!!! Looks awesome and so cool to see the barn!!
Thanks for this! I need something similar for my horses. Are you worried about the light degrading the pex?
Not really, it’s all in the shade cover and the lines outside I transferred to galvanized pipes so they do not get degraded or broken from the horses.
great video. What is the materials in your run and stalls?

Hi Boss what size pex?
1/2” you can go larger, it just depends on what supply you have and how many lines you are going to run at the same time
