The mixing of the cool, damp air with the warm air at the top of the house is great for air mixing, but the uniform temperature being created isn’t automatically the greatest benefit to be reaped from this system.
of the house. This leads to drier litter and a more uniform temperature and air quality gradient across the entire house. 84.0°
A warmer, uniform temperature gradient is desirable, but the major key is the moisture holding capacity of the air that is 76.8° maximized as this air is heating up. Every time the air is warmed up 20 degrees, the moisture holding capacity of the air roughly doubles.

INDUSTRY NEWS
Cold, damp air entering through the fan shutters, cracks in the sidewalls, tunnel doors, and tunnel curtains will tend to drop quickly to the floor. This air will chill the birds and doesn’t have a large capacity to remove moisture from the litter. It tends to form condensation on the litter adding excess moisture.
PROPERLY VENTILATING SUPER HOUSES
As the poultry industry is evolving, house design and construction are evolving too. The basic principles outlined here about ideal air mixing become more One of the biggest concerns when difficult to achieve trying to control litter moisture is how in the wider houses to keep heating costs to a minimum. (larger than 60 ft. wide) It will always take some amount of without the correct equipment. heat to control litter moisture during The European sidewall inlet with the cold weather, but how much curved blade is the depends to a large ideal design to achieve extent on the complete air mixing in performance of the House tightness is critical houses. The curved houses’ inlet in empowering the grower blade helps direct more system. House to establish control of their air across the ceiling tightness is critical poultry house and and creates an efficient in empowering the paycheck.

of the house. Trying to properly ventilate a “super house” without utilizing a curved blade is similar to trying to win the Super Bowl with a soccer ball. If you don’t start out with the appropriate equipment, you are inherently setting the system up to fail or not perform efficiently. STIR FANS CREATE MORE UNIFORM TEMPERATURES IN POULTRY HOUSE
A circulation fan system is used to break up temperature stratification and create more uniform conditions from one end of a house to the other. A proper circulation fan system gently moves air across the litter while ensuring the birds are not being chilled. As that air moves across the litter, it picks up moisture from the litter to be exhausted out of the house. It is a very practical and efficient way to cut heating costs in houses drastically in the winter time, and also improve in-house conditions overall.
TEST YOUR MINIMUM VENTILATION WITH A STATIC PRESSURE TEST Close all curtains and inlets. Turn on your minimum fans. If you are not pulling a 0.20 static pressure, you should look for leaks. Below and to the left are some ideas of where to start. DOOR TEST To determine if room has static pressure, turn on your 36” fan and open the door an inch. Static pressure should pull the door shut.
Inlet Performance Under Static Pressure Should be pulling 800 ft. / min. for proper air mixing
.01 static pressure pulls minimal ft. / min. bad air mixing
.10 static pressure pulls over 800 ft. / min. for proper air mixing

WIND / SUN DEFLECTOR HOOD FOR WALL AIR INLETS •
To reduce light from entering through the sidewall inlets, hoods or wind deflectors need to be installed over each wall inlet
•
Proven to be the most air efficient hood on the market, the Wind / Sun Deflector was designed for minimal air restriction, delivering more air than the standard hoods used on today’s poultry houses
•
With a Korad acrylic lamination over the polystyrene, it is protected from the sun’s rays and will not discolor or become brittle with age

WHY USE ATTIC INLETS? Benefits of Attic Inlets •
Can be used as a tool to promote drier litter and reduce humidity inside the house by promoting higher ventilation rates without increased fuel usage
•
The GC1140 has a fully insulated housing that uses tempered attic air, reducing likelihood of inlets freezing up and condensation •
•
During the most frigid, cold days of the year it is very beneficial to bring tempered attic air into the house that is preheated and has a chance to mix with the hot air at the peak of the house minimizing the use of sidewall inlets during cold weather
No Attic Inlets Used •
When only sidewall inlets are utilized, there are increased instances of freezing / sticking open during cold weather
•
Excess condensation on sidewall inlets that is absorbed into the litter
•
Bringing in cold air from the sidewall inlets exclusively can result in increased fuel usage
•
These weakness can prove costly, especially in modern houses
Provide optimal air distribution and mixing •
Bringing air through the attic will blend with the hot air near the peak, and will push warm, fresh air down to bird level providing optimal mixing of the air

GC1140 INLET WITH MACHINE ACTUATOR REDUCES AIR LEAKAGE IN ATTIC When fresh air is needed, the vent machine will release tension from the GC1140 Ceiling Inlet. Once a static pressure of 0.06 is achieved, the ceiling inlets will open, bringing fresh air into the room. When fans shut off, the inlets will immediately close.

Three Reasons Why Double L Fans Are the Best in the Industry EXTRA AMPS TO SPARE
We know that in the real world fans get dirty. Very dirty. That’s why we designed our fans to have a much higher maximum amp rating than the operating amp rating. This allows the fan to continue to operate perfectly when dirty instead of burning out the motor.
OTHER FANS DIRECTAIRE FANS
EXCELLENT CCFM PER WATT (CIRCULATING CUBIC FEET PER MIN.) We know how important energy efficiency is to your operation. That’s why our 18” DirectAire Stir Fans offer CCFM/Watt ratings of up to 26.41.
SEALED MOTOR
Life in a confinement building is harsh if you’re a fan motor. That’s why our fan motors are sealed to keep out environmental dust to allow our fans to keep running at their full potential.
