Greenhouse climate control systems refer to the controlled management of the greenhouse environment in order to provide the ideal temperature, humidity, and air circulation needed by plants. For efficient and healthy production, it is of great importance to keep the climate conditions inside the greenhouse in balance throughout the year. Especially in regions where temperature fluctuations occur frequently, climate control systems accelerate growth and minimize the risk of disease by reducing plant stress. Misting solutions used together with these systems contribute to the creation of a microclimate by precisely protecting the humidity balance in the greenhouse. In this article, we will discuss how greenhouse climate control and misting systems work and the factors to be considered for choosing the right system.
Greenhouse Climate Control and Misting
What Are the Suitable Climate Conditions for a Greenhouse?
The key to efficient production and obtaining quality products in greenhouse farming is the provision of ideal climate conditions for plant growth. Factors such as temperature, humidity, light, carbon dioxide level, and air circulation inside the greenhouse must be kept under control in a balanced manner. Generally, a temperature between 18–26 °C is considered suitable for plant growth, while a relative humidity rate between 60% and 80% is recommended. Excessive temperature or humidity imbalances can create stress in plants, increase the risk of disease, and negatively affect yield. For this reason, climate control solutions such as heating, cooling, ventilation, and misting systems help maintain the ideal environment within the greenhouse. While photosynthesis can be supported with artificial lighting systems in insufficient light conditions, healthier growth of plants is ensured with regular air circulation and controlled CO₂ supplementation. Continuous monitoring and management of all these conditions with integrated automation systems form the basis of modern greenhouse cultivation, making sustainable and high-yield production possible throughout the year.
What Are Misting (Fog) Systems and How Do They Work?
Misting (fog) systems are high-pressure climate control solutions used especially in greenhouses for the purpose of lowering temperature and controlling humidity. These systems spray water into the environment in the form of micron-sized droplets through special nozzles; while the evaporating water droplets lower the ambient temperature by absorbing the surrounding heat, they also increase the relative humidity rate. Thanks to this method, the microclimate inside the greenhouse is balanced, the stress level of plants is reduced, and ideal humidity conditions for photosynthesis are provided. Especially in regions where high temperatures and low humidity rates negatively affect plant growth during the summer months, misting systems both increase yield and protect plant health by creating a cool and humid environment. Thanks to high-pressure pumps between 70–100 bar and durable piping infrastructure used in modern systems, effective climate control becomes possible without wasting water. In addition, these systems work integrated with automation technologies, enabling them to be activated automatically at different times of the day according to need, providing great convenience to the user.
Climate Control Solutions We Offer as Esular
Our system starts with high-precision temperature sensors placed at strategic points of your greenhouse. These sensors continuously measure the ambient temperature and transmit the data to the central management system in real time. The central system processes this collected data and analyzes the current climate conditions of your greenhouse using advanced algorithms.
The most crucial point is that you can access all this information anytime, anywhere via our user-friendly mobile application. Through the application, you can track the instantaneous temperature values of your greenhouse, browse historical data, and even set critical threshold values.
The Power of the Mobile Application:
Our mobile application goes beyond just viewing data. It offers you the possibility to:
- Instantaneous Temperature Tracking: Monitor the temperature values in different parts of your greenhouse live.
- Historical Data Analysis: Identify long-term trends by examining temperature changes in graphs and reports.
- Remote Control: Manually control ventilation systems, heaters, or coolers via the mobile application, working integrated with the central system.
- Creating Automation Rules: Define devices that will automatically turn on or off when certain temperature values are reached. For example, you can ensure that the ventilation opens automatically when the temperature exceeds 25°C.
- Alarms and Notifications: Receive instant notifications on your mobile device when the threshold values you set are exceeded. Thus, you can intervene quickly in potential problems.
- User Authorization: Provide access to the system for multiple users (e.g., your employees) and customize their permissions.
- Comprehensive Reporting: Evaluate your performance and identify areas for improvement by reporting temperature data at specific time intervals.
