BEAT THE SUMMER HEAL
SPRINKLER COOLING SYSTEM
(Not Fogger)
When the temperature goes up one of When the temperature is above 72° F
the first ways your body reacts is by even ventilation can’t cure the stress that
breaking out in perspiration That's results But a sprinkler cooling system can
nature s way of cooling off help your hogs where nature fell short
Its different with hogs High tem giving them a chance to cool off It sprays
peratures cause them a great deal of them with coarse water droplets to reduce
stress because they can’t sweat When their body temperature The idea is
under this stress due to heat hogs will simple but extremely effective
lose their appetite weight gams drop
there is poor feed conversion conception
rate is reduced and pens become a mess
All of this adds up to lost profits
mi*-rauaa
The sprinkle cycle is turned on automatically
whenever the barn temperature rises above a preset
level 72* F Throughout this ' on' period the control
functions to permit sprinkling to occur for'a preset time
period each hour (2 mmutes/hour is recommended for
best results ) When the barn temperature drops below
72* F the cycle is automatically interrupted
The nozzles are clamped to a plastic pipe strung over
the gutter of slatted area at the rear of the pen Each
nozzel covers a 5 6 foot diameter area which usually
means one nozzle per pen The nozzle assures a coarse
droplet spray pattern which is important for maximum
cooling A fine mist of fog is not desirable in
geographical areas of generally high summer relative
humidity
