Increasing plant yield and cutting costs are vital for greenhouse growing operations. One of the biggest problems facing growers is controlling the air inside their growing environment by conditioning the air coming into the greenhouse.

Throughout its 96-year history, American Coolair has solved this problem for its customers with its exhaust fans, circulation fans and evaporative cooling systems.

American Coolair also works with greenhouse operations to determine their needs and figure out what fan system would be best for their operation and solve any problems the customer is having.

“Our approach has always been to take care of the customer and not just sell them a fan,” says H.B. Graves, agricultural sales manager at American Coolair. “We look at it from a technical standpoint and determine the amount of proper ventilation and cooling needs for their space.”

The goal for all greenhouse growers is to create the best possible growing situation.

“American Coolair’s products are designed to help create ideal growing conditions in greenhouses,” Graves says. “We want to create the best possible conditions for plants to thrive and thus produce a high yield.”

So not only do American Coolair systems help condition the air coming into the greenhouse, they also cut costs because growers don’t have to replace them as often. In turn, the growers save on replacement costs and the labor involved.

Coolair fans are designed so that maintenance is very minimal.

“Our ventilation systems are the most enduring products available in the greenhouse industry,” Graves says. “The durability of our fans means our customers realize additional profits because they don’t need to replace their equipment as frequently. All of our products are manufactured in America with predominantly American materials, so that they are higher quality than most of our competition.”

On top of their long lifespans, American Coolair’s systems don’t need much maintenance work to keep them going. Its fan is designed so that maintenance is very minimal. Coolair’s evaporative cooling systems are self-contained to prevent leaks and promote ease of operation.

Many longstanding American Coolair customers have fans that last 30 to 40 years.

With a commitment to customer satisfaction and a track record of success, American Coolair continues to be the go-to choice for greenhouse growers seeking reliable ventilation and cooling solutions.
