It is clear that taking care of the livestock and its thermal comfort is a concern for any farmer. We know that the well-being of the livestock has a direct impact on increasing production. That is why a cattle with no stress from high temperatures will produce more. This is true for cattle, sheep and goats.
Livestock comfort studies show that more comfortable workers are more productive. The same is true for livestock. Every farmer knows that temperature and ventilation affect livestock and their productivity.
Summer heat can dramatically affect livestock feed consumption, daily weight gain, reproductive performance and final production.
OptimVent fans generate a breeze – 12 km/h- which is recommended as the ideal breeze to increase livestock productivity.
Our giant ceiling fans with a diameter of 3 to 7 meters circulate an incredible amount of air so that the animals can stay 6°C cooler during the hot summer months. In winter, the fan rotating at a slow speed will bring the heat from the ceiling back down to the ground and improve the conditions for the animals.
The IP65 protection against dust and water makes it the ideal fan for its resistance in such exposed environments as livestock farms.
In addition to increasing production and improving comfort, OptimVent HVLS fans are an economical and efficient solution. They consume less than 1 Euro per day, are maintenance-free and save a great deal of money compared to floor or wall fans.
For productive livestock, take advantage of the cooling comfort of OptimVent’s large HVLS industrial ceiling fans.
