Husky Farm Water Reclamation System
Husky's system is positioned as the practical workhorse for barn wash water reclamation, offering a modular, high-throughput design that keeps upfront costs and downtime low for retrofit installations. Compared with niche high-efficiency units like AgriDrain or premium, sensor-driven systems such as DeLaval, Husky balances throughput and simplicity to deliver strong daily reclaimed volumes with predictable operating expenses for mid-sized farms.

AgriDrain Water Recovery Unit
AgriDrain focuses on energy-efficient solids separation and fine sediment capture, giving it an edge where water quality for reuse is the highest priority and energy costs must be minimized. While AgriDrain may process slightly lower peak flow than Husky, its filtration stack and lower lifecycle energy spend make it financially attractive for farms seeking superior effluent clarity and reduced chemical dosing compared with broader-capacity systems.
