Avoiding heat stress with adequate ventilation
All animals have what is known as a “Thermal Comfort Zone”. When their body temperature surpasses this zone there is a real risk of heat stress, which can result in reduced productivity and, in the most severe cases, even death. Natural or mechanical ventilation systems can help remove this danger and reduce the risks associated with high temperatures.
Perfecting ventilation and space requirements for livestock
Sheds that feel warm and damp upon entry often have inadequate airflow. Unless addressed, this lack of ventilation will result in disease, wet and unproductive livestock, and an extra cost in new bedding. By providing optimal airflow through natural or mechanical ventilation, and by providing enough space for animals to lie down, welfare and performance will often significantly improve.
