Greenhouse Climate Control with Passive Cooling

The ARK Passive Cooling System is a breakthrough solution for maintaining optimal temperatures in greenhouse environments. Utilizing advanced evaporation technology, our system effectively cools any grow space with minimal energy use, making it an eco-friendly and cost-effective choice for sustainable agriculture.

Our innovative design features patented technology that harnesses the natural cooling power of evaporation. Unlike traditional swamp coolers, which consume significant amounts of electricity, the ARK system requires only 5% of the energy, making it one of the most efficient cooling methods on the market (Source: McGill Thesis).

The system utilizes up to 50% less water compared to standard pad and fan cooling systems, reducing overall resource consumption. By creating a cooling effect that can lower grow room temperatures by 6°C – 20°C (3.4°F – 22°F) below ambient outside air, our system ensures a stable climate for optimal plant growth. This innovative approach combines modern materials with ancient techniques, drawing inspiration from methods like traditional windcatcher technology. As highlighted in Modern condos use ancient windcatcher tech to stay cool, these principles demonstrate how timeless strategies can achieve cutting-edge efficiency.

Designed for Durability and Performance

The ARK cooling system integrates seamlessly with Sprung’s high-performance greenhouse membranes.

Built from military-grade aluminum and advanced tensioned fabric, our structures are designed to withstand extreme weather conditions while providing superior thermal control.

This unique combination ensures a long-lasting, reliable solution for greenhouse operators.

The Benefits of Passive Cooling in Greenhouse Environments

Unlike active ventilation systems that rely on electrical fans, passive cooling leverages natural processes such as thermal buoyancy and the wind effect to circulate air. This method not only reduces energy costs but also creates a more stable environment for plant growth, helping growers achieve higher yields and better-quality produce.

Real-World Applications and Proven Results

Field-tested across various climates, the ARK Passive Cooling System has consistently delivered exceptional results. I n one case study, our cooling system maintained a 20°C reduction in a 4,200-square-foot greenhouse using less than 2kW of electricity, outperforming traditional systems and demonstrating its superior efficiency.
