Heat Recovery in Greenhouses and Horticulture

Table des matières

Greenhouses and indoor farms maintain warm, humid conditions around the clock. Heating can be 30 to 50 percent of operating cost, while transpiration loads create enormous latent heat in the exhaust air.

Air-to-air plate exchangers recover sensible heat from ventilation exhaust; condensing heat-recovery units capture latent heat as vapour condenses on cold surfaces, returning both warmth and distilled water to the crop.

Ground-source pre-heating of incoming air using stable earth temperatures reduces peak boiler load. 26YC corrosion-resistant cores suit the high-humidity horticulture environment.

With continuous operation, greenhouse heat recovery often pays back within one to three seasons, especially where gas prices are high or carbon limits apply.
