So, I moved to a colder climate and I need an insulated water tank. I can't build for crap, and I don't have a lot of tools. I have never been handy. I see a lot of people building insulators for stock tanks. I am wondering if I can just buy an old chest freezer and put a foam cover over the top and have that as an insulated water tank. Does anyone else use a chest freezer or do cold climate people build the tank insulators? It seems cheaper for me, personally, to get an old chest freezer as I would have to buy tools to build the tank, and then building it would take me probably forever. I don't have a barn with electricity. The horses live outside in a 25 acre pasture. There's a 2 sided 12x12 shed on skids for them so they have a shelter from the wind. The water tank is near the house and I run a hose from the house to the tank.
Please help. Thanks!
I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
