The value of a well-sealed poultry house

摘要

Achieving a negative pressure in the house is more than just switching on a fan. The starting point of any successful ventilation system is a well-sealed, air-tight house. This is true whether we are talking about minimum ventilation, transitional ventilation, or tunnel ventilation. Ventilating a poultry house requires control of the incoming air flow.Reduced air leakage will make it easier to create a negative pressure when the fans are operating and provide better air movement and temperature control. During the winter, and particularly when the birds are young, it is best to run minimalfan capacity for minimum ventilation and achieve the required negative pressure to throw the air to the peak of the roof to allow it to mix with the warm air.
