Nothing like a cold glass of milk right from the bulk tank

 

Yes we do. Lanair mxb-250. Its not too bad. Its cheaper in the long run but much more labor jntense
than propane. If we had natural gas we never would've put it in.

The maintenance of the thing is high and pricey compared to other methods as is the upfront cost. Plus we have to collect enough oil and deal with the water,coolant and gear lube people put in their waste oil. But in the long run I'm sure it'll pay off, as aggravated as I may get with the thing.

O I believe it. Ours gets rinsed everyday and scrubbed a couple times a week. Its like a contest between the milk haulers it seems in our state. Most plants provide hot and cold water in hide reels mounted in each bay for washing trucks. Enough of them also provide wash pails brushes and acid for washing the stainless. Some also provide the soap too. You've gotta wait for an hour anyways it as well do something. One company will scrub their trucks in the middle of a blizzard each load they are at the plant. They hand dry them too. Each.night before they leave the home shop they have to have the truck shined up.

 

Thanks Durallymax. We are building a shop right now and are looking at an Ag Solutions oil boiler. I know they take some maintanance, but with fuel prices right now and all the drums of used oil we have around here it seems like a smart thing to do.

 

you might check on an omni waste oil boiler from EconoHeat, i've read some really impressive things on their web site.

 

I always wonderd why milk trucks were cleaner than all the others on the road. Then I started hauling milk and realized how boring it was sitting in a truck for a hour while your tank pumps and washes.

I will check into it, Thanks.

 

My sig. It's my baby.
