HERE’S A FEW FACTS ON THE
SURGE AUTOMATIC TANK WASHER
If you’ve always thought you’d like a Surge Automatic Tank
Washing System but thought it was something you couldn’t
afford, look at the facts:
1. Whether you do the cleaning yourself or your help does
it, someone has to spend upwards to 250 hours a year
just cleaning your milk tank. Time that could be used in
more productive ways.
2. The Surge Turbo-Spray washer not only makes the job
easier, but does it better as well. Seven distinct automatic
cleaning cycles to keep bacteria counts down and your
system ready for the most critical inspection.
This rugged automatic washer adapts to almost any tank up
to 1500 gallons in capacity.
