FAQ

Full Circles are $85.00 and partial circles are $90.50.

Yes. About $20.00 or so, but the Cow Washer is a permanent sprinkler! Once installed you never have to replace it. It was designed to be rebuilt. It takes about 2 minutes to rebuild one, and the rebuild kit is only $24.32.

That depends on the quality of water and time of use. We have dairies that rebuild every year, and others that will go for 6 years before rebuilding. Those that rebuild every year are very aggressive, with wash pens going 24 hours a day. In some cases, high sand concentration in the water supply will cause the replacable parts to wear out prematurely.

5 foot centers are best. Do not space them more than 7 feet between centers or cows will get in between sprinklers (only one side will get washed). Your outside rows should be within six inches of the wash pen perimeter; 12 inches maximum.

If unobstructed about 38", provided they are the right height off the concrete (6 to 7 1/2"). We designed this sprinkler to wash the udders, not the back. We concentrate the water on the business part of the cow, resulting in quicker drying times. There isn't a constant stream of muddy water running off the back and onto the udder.

No. Again, these were designed to wash cows, not water alfalfa. They are smooth and strong. Nothing to harm the cows or tear off tags.

1 1/4" NPT. This is for strength, not volume.

Simply cut them off leaving a short nipple, and weld the 1 1/4" nipple over the smaller nipple to the supply pipe. Again, the larger pipe is for strength. You will have more than enough volume with the smaller pipe.

40 to 45 psi is best. They will work at higher and lower pressures, but field reports favor 40 to 45 psi.

By patented design. Our spray is not a hard, solid jet that hits with such force that it splashes off the cow. With the Cow Washer, water is applied in a gentle fan of water droplets. These droplets cling to the cow and soak in. We actually get the udder wetter with less water! In many cases, wash times are reduced with our sprinklers.

We get reports like, "The cows like them, the gentle action doesn't crowd them up so tight." "We haven't had a single injury since installing the Cow Washer." And "Our milkers are happy now!"
