Agriculture: Safe Drinking Water For Your Animals
Providing healthy drinking water to farm animals is key for their well being. It’s also key to protecting them from an increasing number of pathogens and diseases.

Where Bacteria Thrives
Drinking water pipes are usually plastic and plastic piping is particularly vulnerable to the growth of biofilm. This is because plastic substances supports microbiological growth.
The temperature of the water in the pipes can rise to above safe levels, chicken houses generally operate around 35°c which is the ideal temperature for breeding bacteria.
Biofilm Removal From Plastic Pipes
The Huwa-San removes biofilm from the plastic piping which is used to provide drinking water to chickens. After biofilm removal clear, clean water is produced. This is far healthier for the chickens and also far healthier for us..
The biofilm would include a mixture of bacteria, and could include legionella.
The ability for biofilm to grow effectively depends on the purity of the water and on the material of the pipework it’s flowing through. On farm land, animal water pipes and irrigation lines are very vulnerable to biofilm growth. This means that the animals and crops are vulnerable to subsequent pathogens.
A Simple Solution
Huwa-San gets rid of biofilm, therefore keeping drinking water clean and safe for your animals. This is effective in environments where temperature control isn’t possible.
And chickens will actually drink more water when it’s dosed with Huwa-San, as they prefer the taste when there is no chlorine present. This leads to healthier and bigger livestock which will increase crop valve.
Huwa-San is a single chemical fix and incredibly easy to use. But, perhaps most importantly of all, using Huwa-San gets rid of the need for dangerous chlorine dioxide dosing that requires mixing two chemicals to produce chlorine dioxide gas.
