[QUOTE="sjt01, post: 7914894, member: 30726"] I am not sure what you get up to with a rotorainer, they last over 20 years here. The only problem we had was when we were unable to get smooth layflat and the rougher stuff kept twisting. We now use 50 mm blue MDPE, and if we need to take it across the road we have to block the road while we tow it across. We have a 350m3 dirty water lagoon, which takes parlour washings, cheese factory washings and drainage, and contaminated rain water, with soakaways for uncontaminated rain water. It is a system we have been using for well over 30 years with minor modifications without problems. Our herd is not large (110 in milk year round). We use a progressive cavity pump from the lagoon to the rotorainer. We can pump from our digestate lagoon to the field digestate store, or swap hoses and pump dirty water to the rotorainer. Digestate lagoon shown, dirty water on the left. [ATTACH type="full"]1007063[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
