Animal-Pets Cooling (Mist Cooling)
One of the more common uses for cooling with a mist cooling system has been in the cattle and
poultry industries. In both cases, effective cooling systems can dramatically improve the overall
operation. The flash evaporation achieved with a mist cooling system cools without excessive
moisture thereby eliminating infections and unsanitary conditions associated with other less
For cattle, the mist cooling system reduces heat stress providing improved physical metabolism.
This equates to enhanced milk production, increased feed intake, better weight gain and faster
reproduction. For poultry, the mist system will compensate for their own lack of a natural means of
heat reduction. This helps eliminate premature aging and unnecessary losses in stock. It also
improves their physical metabolism leading to increased egg production.
Other viable animal applications include the equestrian and hog industries. As with cattle and
poultry, the main benefit is improved environmental conditions for the animals. This improved
quality of life can have a noticeable effect, especially when dealing with highly prized
racehorses. By reducing temperatures, a typical hog farm will improve feeding cycles which directly
increases the size and value of the animal.
In addition, the mist cooling system can be developed to serve as a viable odor control option. By
including the necessary components in the system design, effective odor removal is possible. As the
EPA continues to mandate improvements in this area, mist systems are becoming more of a requirement
than a luxury in all animal related industries.
In short, mist cooling systems will improve the overall physical condition for any animal related
operation. They are great for cages, kennels, stables, zoos, and shelters. They will protect from
the adverse effects of extreme summer conditions. The systems will also repel flying insects and
help minimize or eliminate dust and other airborne particulates.
Example:
Dairy Cows
When cooled, cows can produce up to 30% more milk
during the hot weather
Feed Cattle
When cooled, cattle eat more and increase their weight
at a more rapid pace
Stables
With misting, both people and horses have cleaner air
and less dust & insects
Poultry
Flash evaporative cooling helps stop deaths due to
over-heating
Lumber Storatge
High Output Nozzles help prevent lumber from
cupping & splitting
