Heating the greenhouse means ensuring production continuity, preventing condensation and diseases, and accelerating cycles during colder periods. We design air-to-air systems and hot water networks (basal, aerial, benches) calibrated to structure, latitude, species, and commercial objectives.
The key to this mechanism is distribution: heat where it’s needed, when it’s needed, with the least possible gradient. The correct CAPEX reduces energy OPEX, treatments, and reworking, because a dry and warm plant at night is less exposed to diseases and stress.
Flow engineering ensures a carefully designed positioning to avoid stratification and cold zones. Control logic is calibrated to time slots and phenological phases, with clear alarms and easily readable historical data.
Furthermore, the system is designed to integrate alternative sources and is engineered to be scalable over time, without the need to renew the entire system.
HEATING // LUCCHINI SOLUTIONS
Main options
High-efficiency hot air generators: rapid response, low initial cost, simple management.
Hot water circuits: great uniformity, useful inertia, natural integration with biomass, heat pumps, geothermal, or heat recovery systems.
Hybrid air/water systems and solutions for compartments with different requirements.
Choosing Lucchini means relying on a system engineered for optimal flow, with positioning designed to avoid stratification and cold zones. Control logic adapts to time slots and phenological phases, with clear alarms and always readable historical data. Moreover, each system is prepared to integrate alternative sources and is designed to grow over time without needing to be rebuilt.
HYDROPONICS // Lucchini solutions
Climate management to reduce costs and waste
Hot air offers simplicity and responsiveness but is sensitive to fuel costs; hot water requires a higher CAPEX but ensures uniformity, comfort, and lower OPEX thanks to renewable energies; nighttime dehumidification consumes more initially but reduces losses, waste, and treatments in the long run. With zoning, sensors, and programmable maintenance, we avoid waste and system downtime.
The result is a stable climate, dry leaves, reduction of diseases and waste, with optimized energy and faster ROI.
Information and quote
Hydroponic cultivation requires careful planning: lighting, climate control, irrigation system, and nutrient management are just some of the factors to consider. It’s normal to have doubts at the beginning, especially if you’re approaching this technology for the first time.
