Inspect and Clean Siphon Intake Filter

What happens here

Retrieve the 3/4-inch poly intake pipe from the pond, which is part of the siphon-based water system for the cows. Manually clean any accumulated slime, algae, and debris from the filter mesh on the end of the pipe. After cleaning, carefully re-submerge the intake pipe into the pond, ensuring it is positioned to float correctly. This step addresses a common issue where debris can clog the filter, causing the siphon system to lose its prime. The video highlights that heat can cause air bubbles, leading to prime loss, making filter cleaning crucial for system reliability.

Goal: Clear debris from the water intake to prevent siphon prime loss
