In modern farms, water tanks, water lines, pipes, and nipple drinkers will accumulate accumulation during long-term operation.
A lot of dirt, drug residues, bacteria, germs, fungi, algae and other substances cause blockage in drinking lines, nipple drinkers, and the chickens cannot drink water well. Drinking water is often the main transmission route for respiratory and digestive tract diseases in poultry and livestock. In order to prevent the occurrence of water-borne diseases and ensure the health and safety of chickens, cleaning and disinfecting the water before the chickens drink it is something that cannot be ignored during the breeding process. Steps are also the key point to effective disease control.
Regular disinfection and maintenance of the drinking system avoids water shortage and uneven drinking of chickens caused by blockage, nipple drinker leakage, etc., thereby ensuring the chickens’ feed and water intake, ensuring the health of the chickens, and improving the quality of breeding.
The drinking water pipes are filled with mucus and algae, which breed microorganisms and bacteria. When chickens are forced to drink water containing bacteria, germs, fungi and harmful microorganisms, its immunity and resistance will be reduced, and it will be susceptible to diseases and plagues.
The drinking water pipe is blocked and the weather is hot. Some chickens cannot drink water well, which damages chickens health and easily causes stress.
The nipples are blocked and cannot close normally. The leakage causes the litter or manure belt to become moldy, and the loose feces can easily produce ammonia gas and cause environmental pollution.
After each dosing, the client can flush the drinking water pipe line and turns off the lights at the same time.
Depending on the client’s local water quality, rinse after 1-2 weeks of use.
Client can flush the equipment before the next batch of chickens is transferred to the chicken house. At this time, no chickens are drinking water, so a stronger cleaning solution can be used.
When flushing with high-pressure water, the terminal ball valve must be opened first, and then the pressure regulator ball valve.
It is prohibited to use strong acids and alkalis to flush water pipe lines to prevent nipple drinkers and water pipes from being corroded.
Flush the water system thoroughly with clean water to prevent high concentrations of cleaning fluid from remaining in the water supply system before the next batch of chickens enter the house.
