It really depends on if it gets dirty or not. If I notice anything in the bowl other than water I dump it and wash it. Just my observation. Honestly I would like to switch to something that doesnt need cleaning as frequently like a gravity fed waterer but Ive seen horrible reviews. I'd like to make my own if anyone has plans posted for one
Yes that is what i used to have the only thing you can't use it in is medal it will boil the water literally we did an experiment when we first got them and put one in a medal dish and one in plastic the medal dish heated up to boiling point with bubbles plastic it was fine
GFIs are Ground Fault Indicator outlets. By building code you are required to have them within so many feet of a water source. If you walk in your bathroom you will probably see them by your sink. Theyre the plug in outlets with little buttons. Essentially what they do it that if there is a short circuit for whatever reason they shut off power to that outlet instead of tripping the house breaker. You ever bern running the hair dryer and it just stops working? You hit that little reset button and it works. Otherwise you'd have no power in your bathroom and have to go find the breaker box and flip the switch.
thanks for the link! Unfortunately our soil is quite rocky so it would be difficult to dig a proper hole.
