HUMIDIFICATION PROBLEM
Wine makers throughout the world have always suffered large losses in barrel rooms due to low humidity levels. The "New World" wines from the Americas and the Southern Hemisphere have not had the benefit of large underground wine cellars with naturally high humidity levels. They have had to move to modern-day constructions and create artificial environments resulting in humidity levels as low as 5%. Wines in barrel rooms can lose up to 15% volume through the barrel over a two-year period due to fluctuations in humidity levels. "Topping-Off" is an exhausting and time-consuming process to replace these losses. Oak barrels in use or in store suffer from the swings in humidity and can be damaged even before use.
SOLUTION
TrueFog, USA has specifically developed this humidification system for wineries and barrel rooms. Expertly designed, these tailor-made systems are installed in the barrel room to accurately maintain the humidity level to around 85%. Flexible nozzle lines are mounted in the storage warehouse to give an equal distribution of the humidity. The system leaves no wetting of the floors or barrels when in operation and does not affect the stored wine.
The Vintner's Choice computer control system integrates with the air handler and fan systems to create a complete energy efficient environmental control system for wineries. The TrueFog system humidifies and cools the barrel room reducing losses to 1 or 2% per year, drastically reducing the labor involved in "Topping-Off". Applicable in all aspects of Viniculture and Eniculture the TrueFog system's return on investment is as low as one year.

INDUSTRIAL COOLINGPROBLEM
Overheating of equipment causes equipment failure and production line downtime. SOLUTION
TrueFog technology provides optimum temperature and humidity control to keep equipment running at optimum levels. Custom designed systems can be configured for warehouse, plant and factory applications. 
Condenser Coil Cooling
PRE-COOLINGPROBLEM
In extreme heat, many conventional air conditioners will be shut down or will fail due to excessive ambient loads on the condensing coil. Engineers have attempted to solve this problem by spraying the coil with city water only to find out that this causes calcification and deterioration of the coil. Calcification reduces the heat transfer efficiency and increases operating costs.
SOLUTIONTrueFog offers a solution that "pre-cools" the air as it enters the unit. As a result, the unit operates more efficiently by lowering head pressures which extends its operating life. By coupling the TrueFog system to the condenser coil unit, the system will only turn on when the A/C unit is under heavy ambient loads.Experience has shown that the TrueFog system is an energy saving device that can reduce electrical consumption and not damage the condenser coils. Ongoing tests with utility companies are being performed to verify the efficiency improvements of the system in varying conditions.

To promote faster growth, increase yields, improve quality and reduce diseases. As a professional grower you know, that it is vital to monitor and control all environmental factors that can affect your crop. Some of the most important environmental ingredients are optimum humidity levels, maximum light levels, ideal temperatures and reduced disease rates. One environmental control technology has proven itself more than any other, in commercial use, to successfully control and improve all of these vital environmental factors. It is the TrueFog climate control system.
The TrueFog system will provide you and your crop with the following Benefits.
Improvements in plant quality and uniformity.
Reduced stress on plants by eliminating the excesses in temperature and humidity.
Increased germination -- tests show up to 98% germination after 3-4 days with fog.
Increased productivity with more usable plugs and seedlings per crop.
Up to 95% relative humidity without condensation can be achieved.
Humidity levels will be uniform throughout your greenhouse and precisely controlled. In the winter, TrueFog will prevent your crop dehydrating from the effects of your heating system.
In the summer, plant growth and production will slow down or stop when the temperatures exceed 85 or 90°F or when the humidity is lower than 40% or higher than 85%. TrueFog can eliminate the "peaks" and "troughs" experienced without an effective climate control system. With these excesses eliminated the plant has more time to grow and produce valuable fruit. In some cases TrueFog can make a greenhouse profitable in the summer where before it was closed due to temperature and humidity excesses!

In some cases TrueFog can make a greenhouse profitable in the summer where before it was closed due to temperature and humidity excesses!
In mechanically ventilated greenhouses TrueFog will dramatically reduce summer temperatures. TrueFog creates an artificial fog by atomizing water into 10 micron size droplets that suspend in the air before "flash" evaporating, leaving none of the "hot spots" at the ends of the structure that cooling pads are known for. The temperature drop that can be achieved will vary according to the evaporative potential of the incoming air. Reductions of up to 30°F (16°C) have been achieved. A realistic target figure is Wet Bulb temperature plus 3°F. Compared to the traditional "pad and fan" method of cooling, TrueFog delivers lower temperatures and most importantly temperature and humidity gradients are eliminated. Pad usage is in some cases eliminated or cut in half, a big energy saver. TrueFog systems also provide uniform cooling and humidification in all types of naturally ventilated greenhouses.
TrueFog is ideal for all those specialized growing situations, propagation, germination, rooting, tissue culture and especially for plug production. Leading University reports all confirm that a high pressure fogging system is virtually mandatory for plug production, achieving a high success rate with rapid growth. The high humidity created by TrueFog will allow a higher level of oxygen to get to the rooting structure of the plug, a major factor in successful propagation.
Many diseases are water related. By providing the required humidity in the atmosphere, traditional low pressure misting and irrigation can be cut back. Transpiration rates will decrease and the risk of water related diseases, such as Crown Rot or stem rot is substantially reduced. With a proportional chemical injector, TrueFog can also be used very effectively to instantly distribute throughout your greenhouse any fully water soluble insecticide or fungicide, substantially reducing labor and operating costs.

APPLICATION:
One of the most important factors that the greenhouse manager must be concerned with is stress to your plants. Usually plants will encounter water stress as a result of being exposed to conditions which include improper humidity levels in relation to temperature.
A plant has tiny openings on the surface of the leaves called stomata. Proper functioning of these openings is imperative to the plant's overall health. The stomata are responsible for all water evaporation from the plant as well as all carbon dioxide/oxygen exchange which is necessary for the plant to grow.
When the temperature in the greenhouse is hotter and there is low humidity, the following chain reaction will occur. The air, with lower humidity, will draw moisture out of the plant via the stomata. At first this will help distribute the nutrients from the soil through the roots and throughout the body of the plant. Eventually, though, the plants moisture level will drop too low and as a defense, the plant will close the stomata to retain moisture and prevent additional water loss. While the stomata are closed, no carbon dioxide is absorbed. This in turn impedes the growth of the plant by stopping photosynthesis and will eventually cause the plant to wilt.
With the TrueFog Industrial Climate Control System, the appropriate humidity levels can be attained and thus the surrounding air will be cooled by the evaporating fog. Since the level of humidity in the air will be higher, the humidity exchange from the plant via evaporation will be lessened. As a result, the stomata will stay open which allows for the essential carbon dioxide/oxygen exchange to take place which, in turn, allows the plant to grow and eliminates dangerous plant wilting.
Although humidity and temperature factors are important, the plants optimum health will also depend on light as well as CO2 levels. The light quality in a greenhouse can be affected by the common greenhouse practice of whitewashing the glass to lessen the exposure of direct sunlight and help maintain lower temperatures.
Whitewashing does help with lowering the temperature associated with long exposure to summer sunlight. However it also lowers the quality of UV light reaching the plant's surface.
A greenhouse is the most effective way to control the plant's environment. However, the appropriate systems must be provided into the mix to maintain the most desirable plant growing conditions. The TrueFog Industrial Climate Control System works in several ways to create this optimum environment.
First, it cools the air. As the artificial fog evaporates, heat calories are extracted from the dry air in the process. The cool air is heavier than the hotter air and thus will fall. The hotter air, like that in a hot air balloon will rise. This exchange of hot and cold air creates proper vertical ventilation and brings more CO2 into contact with the stomata and facilitates the carbon dioxide / oxygen exchange much faster than stagnant air.
By adding humidity to the air, the TrueFog System will decrease the humidity variance between the air and plant thus lowering the demand for moisture from the plant from the air. This will drastically lower the plant's water stress and allow it to grow properly.
Lastly, by cooling the air as well as refracting some of the light which enters the greenhouse, the need for white washing will be reduced or eliminated while still allowing quality light at the proper levels to reach the plant.
By using the TrueFog Industrial Climate Control System, your plants will receive all of the above benefits of a controlled environment. When the conditions are kept at constant optimum levels, the plants stomata will stay open for longer amounts of time to absorb more carbon dioxide causing them to grow faster.
The main differences between the TrueFog System and the common alternative which is a pad and fan system are vast. The pad and fan method uses a fan to blow air over a sponge-like pad saturated with water. In theory, the fan causes the water to evaporate and circulates the moist air throughout the greenhouse. The problem with this system, however, is that it can cause some areas away from the pad to not receive much moisture while areas close to the pad will get perhaps too much moisture which can cause fungal growth. This problem can be lessened by increasing the number of pads and fans throughout the greenhouse but this solution can increase your costs and maintenance time.
The TrueFog System on the other hand, distributes the moisture-rich air evenly through the entire growing area. Also, since the system is installed overhead, mostly all of the fog droplets have evaporated before reaching the plant surface. Thus, the desired effect is reached, the cooler air falls creating the vital vertical mixing of air which facilitates the CO2 exchange, and in turn, growth.
Some problems associated with the system include condensation within the greenhouse, if the output of the system is not balanced with natural climate changes in the greenhouse. Condensation occurs when the overall temperature in the greenhouse cools in relation to the humidity in the air. This can occur in the evening and overnight while the sun is down. If the air is full of humidity and the temperature is not hot enough for it to evaporate, the moisture will fall and collect on surfaces in the form of condensation.
This problem can also be easily avoided by running the climate control system on a timed setting to release the most moisture during times of higher heat and lower humidity and release no humidity as the greenhouse temperature lowers to the point where it can no longer evaporate the moisture output.
Another problem that the greenhouse manager must consider is nozzle blockage. Nozzle blockage is a result of water mineral deposit build-up. This can be easily corrected however, by a mineral deposit inhibitor which is run through the system at scheduled intervals to clear out the deposits in the nozzles. Also, the high pressure with which our TrueFog System operates allows for longer periods of time between removal of the mineral build-up than many conventional misting modules available on the market today. The water is forced through the nozzles at such a high rate of pressure it is more difficult for the deposits to accumulate in relation to some models which are attached to simple pumps which operate at a lower efficiency rate. At any rate, individual nozzles are relatively inexpensive, and can be easily replaced without major disruption of the TrueFog System's Functioning.
Lastly, for the TrueFog Industrial Climate Control System to work efficiently and as it is intended, the greenhouse must be in areas where humidity of the outside air is generally average to low. Remember, the system requires that the air be relatively dry for the fog to evaporate while still in the air.
In speaking to many greenhouse managers and owners, I have noticed a large percentage are concerned with possible difficulties in operating such a large investment. With so many variables to consider-temperature, humidity, light, carbon dioxide, oxygen, many are concerned with experiencing complications in getting the mix just right. However, once the system is installed and operational, and after some minor adjustments during early operation, the system basically runs itself. Scheduled maintenance is recommended and should be performed regularly to keep your system running smoothly.
Even with these concerns, the greenhouse manager will realize that the TrueFog Industrial Climate Control System is capable of a wide range of uses and can correct many environmental problems that you may be experiencing now. It's relatively simple maintenance and inexpensive upkeep as well as it's various applications should prove that most greenhouses will benefit by the use of a TrueFog System. By managing the system effectively it can produce an overall positive effect on your entire crop.

Condensation occurs when the overall temperature in the greenhouse cools in relation to the humidity in the air. This can occur in the evening and overnight while the sun is down. If the air is full of humidity and the temperature is not hot enough for it to evaporate, the moisture will fall and collect on surfaces in the form of condensation.
This problem can also be easily avoided by running the climate control system on a timed setting to release the most moisture during times of higher heat and lower humidity and release no humidity as the greenhouse temperature lowers to the point where it can no longer evaporate the moisture output.
Another problem that the greenhouse manager must consider is nozzle blockage. Nozzle blockage is a result of water mineral deposit build-up. This can be easily corrected however, by a mineral deposit inhibitor which is run through the system at scheduled intervals to clear out the deposits in the nozzles. Also, the high pressure with which our TrueFog System operates allows for longer periods of time between removal of the mineral build-up than many conventional misting modules available on the market today. The water is forced through the nozzles at such a high rate of pressure it is more difficult for the deposits to accumulate in relation to some models which are attached to simple pumps which operate at a lower efficiency rate. At any rate, individual nozzles are relatively inexpensive, and can be easily replaced without major disruption of the TrueFog System's Functioning.
Lastly, for the TrueFog Industrial Climate Control System to work efficiently and as it is intended, the greenhouse must be in areas where humidity of the outside air is generally average to low. Remember, the system requires that the air be relatively dry for the fog to evaporate while still in the air.
In speaking to many greenhouse managers and owners, I have noticed a large percentage are concerned with possible difficulties in operating such a large investment. With so many variables to consider-temperature, humidity, light, carbon dioxide, oxygen, many are concerned with experiencing complications in getting the mix just right. However, once the system is installed and operational, and after some minor adjustments during early operation, the system basically runs itself. Scheduled maintenance is recommended and should be performed regularly to keep your system running smoothly.
Even with these concerns, the greenhouse manager will realize that the TrueFog Industrial Climate Control System is capable of a wide range of uses and can correct many environmental problems that you may be experiencing now. It's relatively simple maintenance and inexpensive upkeep as well as it's various applications should prove that most greenhouses will benefit by the use of a TrueFog System. By managing the system effectively it can produce an overall positive effect on your entire crop.

HEAT KILLS PRODUCTIVITY
Perhaps you already know how much high temperatures are costing your business. If not, you may be interested in what NASA found out when they conducted their own study, CR-1205-1, "A Compendium of Human Responses to the Aerospace Environment".This definitive report shows a strong correlation between the effective temperature and human productivity. At 85 degrees, work output drops by 18% while accuracy suffers by 40%!
While productivity is the most obviously costly product of a hot, uncomfortable work environment, that's not the end of it. Your bottom line also suffers from:
Low Morale, caused by heat discomfort
Tardiness and Absenteeism
Turn over and the associated training and discharge costs
Reduced attention to Safety
Potential Health Issues
What does 18% of your payroll cost per month? Or 29%... or 45%? If you consider payback as an important factor in your equipment buying decisions, you cannot ignore the importance and value associated with providing your employees a comfortable work environment.

Industrial Odor ControlOdorLogic is a breath of fresh air for your employees, your neighbors and your community.OdorLogic developed as A Natural Organic Odor Neutralizer is a broad-spectrum odor neutralizer. It controls the full spectrum of odors (eliminating the need for multiple odor control products), and breaks them down for complete odor removal, leaving no peripheral odors or odorous byproducts.Data from independent laboratories and researchers proves that OdorLogic is:
Effective for both organic and inorganic odors
+Safe for humans
+Safe for animals
+Safe for the environment
There is a major difference between odor neutralizers and simple masking agents. If you’ve ever entered a public restroom and smelled the overpowering scent of cherry, you’ve been exposed to a masking agent. A masking agent is not effective for removing odor: it merely covers it up with another, stronger odor. When the masking agent wears off, the malodors become noticeable again. Or, while removing odor, they may introduce hazardous compounds into the very areas they “clean.”OdorLogic is an odor neutralizer. It neutralizes malodors, performing complete odor removal from the air and making it unavailable for the olfactory senses to pick up. So what you smell is… nothing.Broad-spectrum use eliminates the need for multiple odor control products—saving you money. OdorLogic eliminates the need for multiple odor control products. It is effective against both organic and inorganic malodors. We have worked with facilities experiencing a wide variety of problems and have engineered an odor control system solution to their problems—often at less cost than noncompliance fines, add-on equipment such as scrubbers, and completely new systems like a wastewater treatment plant.Furthermore— time, complaints, and noncompliance with governmental regulations cost you money and community good will. During the odor removal process, OdorLogic is used anywhere from a straight solution to a 600:1 dilution depending on the application and strength of the malodors. This flexibility in dilution rates, combined with our extensive range of application equipment, enables us to provide you with the most cost-effective odor control system possible.OdorLogic is safe it is nontoxic, non-hazardous, biodegradable, and contains no harmful Chemicals:OdorLogic is safe for both workers and the environment. It consists of natural organic compounds, food grade surfactants, and purified water.
OdorLogic is revolutionizing industries that deal with malodor problems—whether it be year-round, seasonal or application-based. OdorLogic doesn't simply mask odor with other fragrances or harsh chemicals. Instead, it breaks down and removes a full spectrum of both organic and inorganic odors—leaving your workers, your neighbors and your community with a breath of fresh air. It's safe. It's powerful. It's cost effective. And it's available to you.
OdorLogic was originally developed to be effective on a broad range of problematic odors. The mechanisms through which the products perform are complex—however, the fundamental mechanisms are adsorption, absorption, gas solubility and distribution constant enhancement, and reaction.OdorLogic is most often diluted with water and applied via TrueFog, USA atomization systems as an aerosol into process air. The mix in these droplets separate with the oils forming a thin film over the water droplet itself. This skin creates an electrostatic charge over its outer surface that facilitates adsorption of the malodor molecules onto the droplet surface. With adsorption comes then absorption where the gas is taken up by the droplet (solubility) and held. At this point the malodor is under control. Studies have shown that with many acidic and basic gasses a reaction takes place after the gas has been captured within the droplet. This reaction with the mild buffer contained within OdorLogic tends to yield harmless organic salts.Laboratory studies have proven that OdorLogic enhances the solubility of most gasses. This absorption, or solubility mechanism, coupled with the adsorption phenomena facilitates a gas uptake increase well over the amount of gas the buffer within the product can neutralize. The same laboratory studies show the product enhances the distribution constant of the captured gas, meaning the aqueous OdorLogic solution will give less of the captured gas back into the atmosphere out of the aerosol droplet. In this way, OdorLogic is able to neutralize odors of gasses with which it will react and with those with which it will not react. The non-reacting gasses tend to be the neutral hydrocarbons such as styrene.
TrueFog is the simplest and most effective method of removing odors from manufacturing, industrial and waste handling treatment sites. TrueFog odor control systems provide a safe and economical method of eliminating a wide range of odor problems.
Combined with OdorLogic odor-neutralizing materials for both interior and exterior applications. TrueFog is particularly effective with all natural neutralizing products, a blend of all-natural oils including peppermint, lemon and eucalyptus, is a highly effective odor neutralizer in even the most difficult odor control situations.
Spread over wide areas by the TrueFog System, OdorLogic will kill odors at everything from landfills and garbage dumps to stock yards and waste water treatment plants. The odor control system is equally effective against the offensive odors produced at industrial sites such as refineries, rendering plants, pulp and paper mills, and waste transfer and recycling stations.
Completely harmless — all OdorLogic odor control compounds used are either food or cosmetic grade, with a long history of safety in use. TrueFog works the way nature works, It is not a masking agent.
Released into the atmosphere, TrueFog attaches itself to malodor molecules via natural forces, increasing the overall molecular mass. This forces the molecule down to a lower atmospheric level where it is broken down naturally.
TrueFog spreads across large areas, keeping the neutralizer suspended until it encounters odors. The two elements then combine to form a neutral substance that turns into particulate and falls away harmlessly.
Custom Designed, lightweight and compact TrueFog provides a unique system that can be controlled completely automatically, 24 hours a day. TrueFog can be set up in hours, quickly alleviating complaints from neighbors as well as improving on-site working conditions.
