Not every building needs the same type of evaporative cooler. For industrial and commercial applications, two common approaches are fixed/ducted cooling and portable spot cooling. Fixed / ducted industrial air coolers Fixed systems are installed in a planned location...
Why Replace Diesel Ventilation Fans? Some poultry farms use diesel-powered ventilation equipment where reliable electrical ventilation capacity is unavailable or where older equipment was installed before an electric system became practical. However, diesel-powered...
Exhaust Ventilation and Air Circulation Are Not the Same One of the most common misunderstandings in livestock ventilation is assuming that every fan performs the same job. It does not. A negative-pressure exhaust fan and an air circulation fan have different...
Why Turkey Houses Need Flexible Ventilation A turkey house does not necessarily require the same ventilation rate throughout the year. Outdoor temperature changes. Animal size changes. Heat production changes. Seasonal conditions change. As a result, the ventilation...
Why Summer Ventilation Matters in Layer Houses Layer poultry houses can experience significant environmental challenges during hot weather. High temperatures, high stocking density, humidity and insufficient airflow can create heat-stress conditions and affect...
Why Enclosed Pig Houses Need Controlled Ventilation Enclosed pig houses provide greater control over the production environment, but they also reduce the amount of natural air exchange available to the animals. During hot weather, heat and moisture can accumulate...
Large factories and warehouses often face the same basic problem: Heat enters or is generated inside the building faster than it can be removed. Machinery, production processes, people, lighting, solar heat and outdoor temperatures can all contribute to uncomfortable...
Heat stress can have a significant impact on dairy cattle. When temperatures and humidity rise, cattle have more difficulty releasing body heat, which can affect feed intake, comfort, health and milk production. Good ventilation and effective cooling are therefore...
Choosing the right number of exhaust fans is one of the first questions when planning ventilation for a factory, workshop or warehouse. A common mistake is to calculate fan quantity from floor area alone. In reality, the required number of fans depends on several...
