Complete Glacier-Cor PVC Evaporative Cooling System
*Note
This product is a complete evaporative cooling system with a 3' high wall and 4" pads. You can choose different widths in the drop-down box above. For a higher wall or thicker pads, you can build a system purchasing components separately. This allows you to build a 4" or 6" system to any height from 2' to 8'. (See Dist. System 4" or Dist. System 6")
Description
The Glacier-Cor PVC Cooling System works together with your greenhouse fans to lower temperatures 10-25 degrees. The sump is built-in and eliminates the need for a separate external sump tank, minimizing the amount of piping needed for the system.
Dimensions
Width = 5' to 90' (5' increments)
Height = 3'
Pads = 4" thick x 12" wide
Assembly
Evap-pad system is placed on end wall or side wall of greenhouse. Normally, the maximum distance between fans and evap-pad system is 120 ft. The evap-pad system should extend the full length of the end or side wall. For multiple fans the distance between the fans should not exceed 20 ft. to keep hot spots from developing.

Sizing Chart
As a general guide, use the following system recommendation:
For 4" pad systems: Use 1 sq. ft. of pad per 250 CFM.
For 6" pad systems: Use 1 sq. ft. of pad per 400 CFM. NOTE: Other pad heights are available. Call IGC customer service for pricing.
Sizing your system using fans:
