With freezing temperatures just around the corner, now is the perfect time to winterize your sprayer. Proper winterization helps protect pumps, valves, plumbing, flow meters, and boom components from costly freeze damage and ensures your machine is ready to go when spring arrives.
For the best protection, we recommend using Young's Equipment Sprayer Antifreeze, which provides freeze protection down to -50°C. As a general guideline, use 1 litre of antifreeze for every foot of sprayer boom to ensure adequate volume reaches all plumbing and boom sections.
Timely application during those tight spray windows every year is a big reason to own your own spray equipment, and once it’s time to go next spring you want your sprayer to be ready to go. Before you tuck your piece of equipment away for the winter, some maintenance will serve you well. We suggest to not delay winterizing your sprayer in order to avoid potentially high costs and frustration about time consuming repairs next spring. The right maintenance now will protect your sprayer from damage caused by the freezing temperatures during late fall and winter to help improve its longevity and resale value.
A small investment in winterization today can prevent expensive repairs and unnecessary downtime next season. Young's Equipment Sprayer Antifreeze is specifically designed to protect critical sprayer components and keep your equipment safe through even the coldest prairie winters.
If you need parts, fluids or filters to get this important task done, give your local Young’s Equipment branch a call. We stock everything to get you going.
If you'd rather leave these essential tasks to the experts, now is the perfect time to schedule service. Sprayer winterization is a key component of the Young's Equipment Winter Inspection Program, helping ensure your equipment is properly protected from freeze damage and ready to perform when spring returns.
Contact your local Young's Equipment branch to book your winter inspection or to pick up your antifreeze before freeze-up. We look forward to helping you protect your investment and prepare for the season ahead.
No matter how you choose to approach sprayer winterization, it’s important that you do it before bone-chilling temperatures settle in. Remember: If you take care of your application equipment, it will help you take care of your crops season after season.
Young's Equipment would like to invite you to the Canadian Western Agribition Grain Expo on November 24th and 25th, 2026 in the Queensbury Convention Center, Evraz Place in Regina.
In times like these, in an industry like ours, networking and sharing challenges, problems and solutions becomes increasingly important every single year. That's why we are proud to once again present the Grain Expo at the Canadian Western Agribition to you as a vital part of the success of Western Canada's agricultural industry.
The Canadian Western Agribition Grain Expo is a two-day speaker conference and trade show aimed at grain producers and their related industry. Following harvest, the timing of the conference is ideal for producers looking for the latest information on the market trends and agronomic practices. It is also an ideal time for the large equipment dealers to showcase their newest technologies and give producers a jump start to place orders for spring delivery. You will be able to share your experiences with industry leading personalities from across Canada, and join in to discussions on the most important topics for the prosperity and future of the agriculture business.
Lunch as well as refreshments will of course be provided. We are looking forward to seeing you at this tremendous conference. The number of attendees is limited and the available seats go fast, so it would make sense to register your attendance early. You can do that by clicking the invite or the Grain Expo logo below.
