According to with many studies, in presence of dust deposit, the fan performance can be cut-off by even 30%.<br \/>\nIn other words, if a fan can normally reach 40.000 m3\/h, it can only reach 28.000 m3\/h when not properly clean.<br \/>\nThese results can also affect the wind-chill effect, cutting its benefits up to 50%: from 8&deg;C to 4.5&deg;C of cooling effect. Those numbers are absolutely realistic and without a proper cleaning also the optimum bird growth rates can be affected by negative results also in the final output.<br \/>\nWhat to do?<\/p>\n<p>Clean the fans <strong>on a monthly basis<\/strong>. Just a simple dusting-off with a softer bristle broom could be the right trick. Be sure to clean fans deeply at least once a flock.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, the only way to get the best output is to keep the equipment in<strong> top shape<\/strong>. According to a research of Mississippi University, a reduction of 30% in air speed inside the barn results in a loss in birds body weight around 6%, worsening in the feed conversion factor and increasing in the mortality rate.<\/p>\n<p>Are you able to estimate how much the lack of cleaning affect your profit?<\/p>\n<p>\n<em>#KeepYourFanClean<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During the hot season, our technicians have the chance to visit many poultry houses equipped with tunnel ventilation.
