Healthier Herds, Higher Milk Yields, Fewer Calf Losses
Clean, Optimized Water — A Foundation for Dairy Success
Water is the most overlooked yet essential nutrient in your dairy operation. At Puroxi Alberta, we may use a combination of Oxy Blast, our blended acids for pH control, filtration, the Puroxi Descaler, and Grolyte (if needed) to enhance water quality, improve herd performance, and reduce water-related health issues.
Why Water Quality Matters in Dairy Farming
Contaminants and imbalanced water chemistry can silently undermine health and production. Common issues include:
- Iron, manganese, and sulfates – cause poor taste, slime buildup, and digestive issues
- Bacteria – lead to scours, weakened immunity, and higher calf mortality
- Sodium – interferes with hydration and nutrient absorption
- Hardness – causes surface tension and mineral scale in lines and troughs
Left untreated, these issues can result in:
- Lower milk production
- Poor feed efficiency
- Increased calf losses
- Sluggish weight gains
- Clogged or contaminated water systems
- Other than Iron & Manganese, everything above can also cause scour in animals.
Our Proven Water Treatment Approach
Oxy Blast
A stabilized hydrogen peroxide-based oxidizer that:
- Eliminates bacteria and pathogens
- Breaks down biofilm and organic slime
- Increases oxygenation
- Improves gut health and performance
pH Control with Acids
Balancing water pH:
- Improves palatability
- Enhances mineral and nutrient absorption
- Supports better digestion and feed utilization
Puroxi Descaler
Used to:
- Break the surface tension caused by hard water
- Descale existing mineral buildup in pipes and troughs
Support hydration and nutrient assimilation in cattle
Ozone
In some cases, we use ozone to:
- Oxidize iron, manganese, sulfates, and bacteria
- Improve filtration efficiency
- Enhance water clarity and reduce chemical dependency
Grolyte
Sodium cannot be removed through standard filtration, but we:
- Use Reverse Osmosis (RO) to remove sodium from water when needed
- Use Grolyte to counteract the negative effects of high sodium levels, improving hydration and helping animals adapt to sodium-heavy water
Smart, Customized Water Solutions
Every dairy has a unique water profile. We tailor each system by:
- Reviewing a detailed water report
- Designing a custom solution recommended by a certified water technician who is guided by vets and nutritionists
Installing flow meters and injection pumps for precise, consistent dosing
What We Filter — And What We Manage
- ✅ Filtered: Iron, manganese, sulfates, hardness, bacteria
- 🚫 Not filtered: Sodium (requires Reverse Osmosis)
- ⚖️ Managed: Sodium effects managed with Grolyte where RO is not practical
