Better Things Flow From Better Water

When impurities are removed and your livestock receive only clean, high-quality water, there’s a cascade of results that improve your business.

Healthier Livestock

Water that’s contaminated, too hard or has the wrong pH can cause problems ranging from diarrhea to reduced indoor air quality. It can even lead to dehydration, as bitter taste causes your animals to drink less. But when you deliver high-quality water, your livestock will not only avoid these problems but have better material to work with in the body processes that use water.

Better Nutrition

With more and better water, your livestock will not only be healthier, but absorb nutrients more efficiently. That means better health, higher weight gain, and more milk production.

Better Environments

Substandard water can directly affect the air quality in your barns (such as by introducing sulfur fumes) or support bacterial growth that degrades it. Proper treatment will remove these impurities and germs, giving your animals fresher air. And Assist’s environmental treatment products can clear the air even more, eliminating ammonia fumes and other germ byproducts.

Cleaner, longer-lasting equipment

Manganese contamination, hardness and abnormal pH can all damage your water delivery equipment, raising your costs and restricting your stock’s access. Untreated water can also promote the formation of biofilms and scum. Assist’s treatment programs will ensure the water is clean and your equipment is protected.

Better water, better nutrition, better health, better results, better profits. Why not act today?

Do These Lurk In Your Water?

Nitrates—

Poor growth, feed conversion, and milk yield, possible long-term organ damage

Sulfates—

Poor growth, reduced bovine fertility, reduced water consumption, diarrhea

Sodium—

Lowered water intake, reduced milk yield, can promote enterococcus growth

Iron—

Interferes with absorption of nutrients, may promote E. Coli growth

Sulfur—

Rotten egg smell, lower water intake, neurological effects at high levels

Manganese—

Interferes with water lines and with absorption of nutrients

Molybdenum—

Reduced bovine reproduction, poor growth, lower absorption of nutrients

Hardness—

Damage to water systems, leading to reduced water intake and repair expense

pH—

Pipe corrosion, lower water intake due to bitter taste, lower milk yields, metabolic acidosis

Alkalinity—

Bitter taste leads to reduced water intake
