Glacier-Cor Distribution System for 6" Pads |
|
|
*Note
|
|
This product is the distribution system only. The Glacier-Cor Cooling System also requires pads, plumbing, and pump. Purchasing the components separately allows you to build a 4" or 6" system to any height from 2' to 8'. For a complete 4" Glacier-Cor system at 3' high, with everything you need CLICK HERE. |

Description
|
|
 |
|
The Glacier-Cor Cooling System works together with your greenhouse fans to lower temperatures 10-25 degrees. When large quantities of air are pulled through Glacier-Cor air pads that are saturated with water, a substantial cooling effect is realized due to the evaporation of that water. Suited for virtually all geographic locations. |

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.

The pump is sized for the system to supply at least 1/2 gallon of water per minute per linear foot of pad system. Use a P-20 pump for systems 20 foot or less in length. Use a P-25 pump for systems 25 to 40 feet in length. Use a P-40S pump for systems 45 to 70 foot in length and a P50 pumps for systems 75 to 90' in length. Longer systems will require 2 or more pumps.
