How to Cool Down a Cow Barn
Heat Stress Is a Hidden Threat to Dairy Performance
When summer temperatures rise, cow barns can quickly turn into heat traps. Poor air movement, high humidity, and crowded spaces lead to heat stress—a major issue that causes reduced feed intake, lower milk yield, fertility problems, and increased health risks. Especially in enclosed barns or older buildings, traditional cooling methods often fall short. That’s why targeted, energy-efficient solutions are needed to maintain a healthy barn climate.
Tube Ventilation: Efficient Cooling Without the Cost
Tube ventilation offers a practical and effective way to cool down cow barns without high energy consumption. The system delivers fresh air evenly across the barn through fabric ducts with pre-calculated openings. This creates a continuous, low-speed airflow that displaces warm, humid air without causing drafts. Unlike fans or misting systems, tube ventilation provides quiet, consistent cooling—ideal for milking cows that are sensitive to temperature changes and noise.
