Ventilation is essential for humans as well as animals. Ventilation of animal homes to eliminate moisture and smells and replacing them with fresh air is vital for livestock growth.
Ventilation also supplies air movement which boosts warmth and improves air quality for restricted animals. While great ventilation contributes to adulthood, if not properly designed, the energy used by a heating and venting system can considerably reduce those gains.
The most common strategy is to use fans to blow air from the construction, with new air drawn through inlets on the other hand. There are various types of fans available in the market, you can choose according to your need and according to the farm fan model (also known as “พัดลมฟาร์ม รุ่น” in the Thai language).

Improved ventilation systems also have made possible the large density populations of poultry and livestock in confinement, thus cutting down the construction cost per unit placed. This is economically significant as it reduces manufacturing and labor costs.
If air isn’t substituted in an enclosed building where poultry is restricted, the atmosphere composition varies. Passive, or natural, venting is driven by natural wind flow across the construction and temperature differences between the inside and out of the building.
Passive ventilation could be used by itself or in conjunction with some kind of mechanical ventilation. It’s used where the air temperature and motion have to be controlled, for example, home for animals that are sensitive to cold, abrupt changes in temperatures, and drafty conditions.
