You can use it with cold water in the hot summer months to keep you and your dog cool.

If you fill with cold water it will be cool. Because it's capacity is so large, it will remain cold or hot for a longer time. Remember it's also heavier.

If it is just for cooling off it is great. The dog can lie in it, Sit in it, stand in it or play in it. But it just can't actually swim it's not deep enough. We use ours and our dogs enjoy it.

I don't see why not - It runs for hours on end in our bathroom daily during the winter. The heater really heats up a room of reasonable size quickly. Make sure it has space to draw air from behind and airflow is unobstructed. The unit is relatively quiet and puts off gentle heat complete room warming heat. Our dog enjoys standing in front of the fan on cold mornings! We have truly enjoyed this heater

Yes you can, I go outside and stick it trough the metal fins (vent) on the side of the housing and drop a table into the water reservoir that cools the condenser. Works great.

I don't see why not. What this product does is shoot a solution into the fitting where the hose attachment attaches to the pump and it shoots a solution into the pump that pushes out the water and adds a bit of antifreeze and lubrication solution to protect your pump from freezing and cracking when the out side temperature drops below freezing. i live in Wisconsin where the winters are extremely cold I use it to prevent my pump from freezing and cracking and it works really well for that.

Yes! I used it that way for my little dog all last summer, and it worked great. I either used a towel or put it in a pillowcase.

No it won't keep you warm in cold water the fabric isn't that thick. It's better for sun protection.

i assume you are talking about extra insulation that doesn't come with it. I wonder this too in terms of using it in colder weather, which is when it's most sought--if it would hold temps when the outside temp drops if extra insulation could be added around it or under it. . Also wonder if in cooler weather the water would stay warmer better if tub is up on a deck vs. on the ground (even with a pad, the ground is colder than the air, I would think) ?

Not sure, but it's certainly worth trying. It's inexpensive, and simple to use. I'm not sure that it is safe for pets, or fish. The basic principleseems similar to a hot tub, except the temperature. Good luck.

In regard to outside use...it is very sturdy but if it would be exposed to extreme cold it would freeze up, if exposed to extreme heat(which I hope your dog would not be exposed to either) it would have to be cleaned out very frequently due to moisture being inside the main bottle/seals all the time. If it would be used outside on occasion and the temps were moderate it would be fine. In regard to the second question: You have to unscrew the lid to change the water and fill it up...you could add ice cubes to cool the water down if you wanted to the main bottle. I am not sure how long they would keep it cool however if the temps were elevated nor am I aware of how it would affect the flow. I have never tried it outside as our dog is strictly an inside dog. I love this system and do highly recommend it. We have had it for nearly a year and we are very pleased with it. I hope this helps.

This would probably not work as a cooler in the summer. The temperature settings range from hot to warm. You can't just use it as a fan, it will still blow warm air out.

Hi, sorry for the delay. I am not 100% sure, I have not tried it. I have only used mine during the summer to hold ice water, it stays cold for a really long time.

As far as I know yes, but my water only comes out a certain temp here, I have no control on how cold it gets.

Sorry never tried with cold water. Even hot stuff stays hot only for max 30-40 mins

I had the same concern, it has a thermostat so it only runs when the water temperature is very cold. It also doesn't feel hot even when running. Trust me it will do a great job.

unfortunately, my dog hasn't had the need to have the collar submerged in water since i live in the city and my dog doesn't come into contact with any type of water submergen in the winter time. right now, he has only worn it in the rain with no problem and wallowing his neck in the snow so i really can't say. Sorry.
