Spring Cleaning Guide for Your Miraco LilSpring Waterer
Hey there, PeteCo Supply Fans! With spring just around the corner, it's time to give some love and attention to one of the unsung heroes of our animal care routines: the Miraco LilSpring waterer.
These automatic waterers have been faithfully keeping our herds hydrated all winter long, but now it's their turn for a little pampering. Let's dive into a step-by-step guide on how to give your LilSpring waterer the spring cleaning it deserves!
Step 1: Scrub and Clean the Trough and Valve Chamber Area
Start by removing the drain plug to allow any water and debris to wash out of the trough and valve chamber area. Use a rag or scrub brush to scrub away any stubborn debris clinging to the sides. Once you've given it a thorough cleaning, replace the drain plug and allow the automatic waterer to fill up again.
2: Inspect the Gaskets
Next, take a close look at the gasket around the inspection plug and side access panel. If you notice any signs of wear, tears, or cracks, it's time to replace the gasket. A tight seal is essential to prevent air gaps and ensure the efficient operation of your LilSpring waterer.

Step 4: Prepare for Warmer Weather
If you're confident that winter weather is no longer a concern in your area, it's time to remove any heaters from your LilSpring waterer. Give them a wipe down to remove any dust or debris, and then store them in a dry place until they're needed again in the fall.
By following these simple steps, you'll ensure that your Miraco LilSpring waterer is in top-notch condition and ready to keep your animals hydrated and happy throughout the spring and beyond. So grab your cleaning supplies and let's get to work – your furry friends will thank you for it!
Happy spring cleaning!
