WHY NATURAL VENTILATION? B.
A. NATURE DOES THE WORK
Instead of expensive equipment designed to move and mix
air, nature does the work. A natural convection current Is
maintained within the barn as warm air generated by livestock
rises and exits a ceiling ridge vent. Cool fresh air enters a se-
ries of side doors to replace staler existing air. No fans, no
noise, no unnecessary expense — just warm air risng and
fresh air naturally taking Its place.
POULTRY
BETTER ENVIRONMENT
As warm air rises it expands enabling It to pick up moisture
and bacteria before leaving the barn. Staler air Is replaced,
not mixed, creating an atmosphere that is fresher and dryer.
This environment produces some healthy results.
1. One to two weeks better growth rate is being experienced
in naturally ventilated hog finishing facilities over the av-
erage fan system.
2. Head and lung examinations at the slaughter house reveal
a marked reduction In swine respiratory problems.
3. Improved feed efficiency.
Let us show you the leading natural ventilation system on the market today.
