Humidity control in Greenhouses

Greenhouse Climate Control

Misting/Fogging systems are fast becoming standard equipment for all greenhouse climate control applications. As an environmental control system, they can have a dramatic effect on greenhouse productivity.


Humidity Control

Greenhouse productivity is dependent on many factors. A MISTING system cannot control or affect all variables, but it can have a positive impact by regulating the temperature, humidity and moisture content within the greenhouse.

This capability will promote increased health and productivity within the greenhouse by eliminating ‘plant water stress’, one of the most significant factors in the growth of all plants.


Plants lose their moisture through evaporation from the leaves. They also gather carbon needed for growth in the form of carbon dioxide through the leaves. By controlling the plants pores through the use of a properly designed MISTING system, the results are stronger and healthier plants with optimum growth potential.

Fog systems can also be used to introduce fertilizers by injecting nutrients directly into the atmosphere. The moisture and the nutrients are absorbed by the leaves of the plant.
