Optimize Your Greenhouse and Hydroponic Operations

Creating the ideal environment for plants in a greenhouse or hydroponic setup requires precise airflow, temperature control, and humidity management. Without proper ventilation, even high-quality seeds and nutrients can’t reach their full potential. That’s why growers across the country rely on VES-Artex ventilation solutions—engineered for reliability, durability, and performance in controlled-environment agriculture (CEA).

Why Ventilation is Critical in Greenhouses and Hydroponics

Plants depend on consistent airflow for:

  • Temperature regulation – preventing heat stress and promoting uniform growth
  • Humidity control – reducing the risk of mold, mildew, and fungal infections
  • CO₂ circulation – supporting photosynthesis and increasing yield potential

Stagnant air in an enclosed environment can reduce plant health, limit production, and increase disease risk. VES-Artex fans are designed to keep your growing environment balanced and productive.

VES-Artex Fans Perfect for Greenhouses and Hydroponic Environments

VES-Artex offers a wide range of ventilation solutions designed to handle the unique demands of plant production. Popular options include:

Small to Medium Shutter Exhaust Fans

Small to Medium Basket Fans

  • 12” High Velocity Basket Fan – Robust, rugged, and dependable, high-velocity basket fans satisfy the need for additional air flow.
  • 20” High Velocity Basket Fan – High-velocity basket fans are powerful, efficient circulation fans constructed with zinc-plated, high-grade steel that is powder coated.
  • 24” High Velocity Basket Fan – Equipped with sealed motors with either 1/10, 1/3, or 1/2 horsepower, these basket fans have the power to push the maximum air velocity to the coverage area.
  • 36” High Velocity Basket Fan – This fan is built for performance in agricultural operations. It supports efficiency and safety in high-traffic environments. It is also available in 230/460V, 3HP.

Large Ceiling Fans for Full-Space Air Circulation

Cooling and Mist Integration

  • Low-Pressure Mist Kit, 5 Nozzle, Black – Works seamlessly with VES-Artex basket fans to provide evaporative cooling, temperature moderation, and humidity balance in hydroponic and greenhouse systems.

Benefits of VES-Artex Ventilation Solutions

  1. Improved Airflow – Fans like the 12”-24” shutter exhaust fans and 56”–60” ceiling fans ensure CO₂ circulation reaches every part of your greenhouse or hydroponic room.
  2. Temperature & Humidity Control – Combine variable speed exhaust fans with misting systems for precise climate management.
  3. Energy Efficiency – DC motors and variable-speed AC options allow you to adjust airflow to plant needs without excessive energy costs.
  4. Durability – Moisture-resistant materials, galvanized steel blades, and industrial-grade motors stand up to humid, high-use growing environments.
  5. Versatility – Suitable for greenhouses, hydroponic racks, propagation areas, and other controlled-environment agriculture operations.

Real-World Applications

  • Hydroponic Farms – Efficient air circulation reduces stagnant pockets, optimizes CO₂, and promotes faster growth.
  • Commercial Greenhouses – Large ceiling fans maintain uniform temperatures across high-density plant beds.
  • Propagation and Nursery Rooms – Smaller shutter fans deliver targeted ventilation for seedlings and clones.
  • Vertical Farming & CEA – Integrated mist kits and fans help regulate humidity and prevent fungal outbreaks.

Building an Environment for Success

For greenhouse and hydroponic growers, VES-Artex ventilation solutions are more than just fans, they’re a critical part of a thriving, productive environment. From small 12” shutter fans to 60” DC ceiling fans and mist integration kits, VES-Artex provides the reliability, airflow, and environmental control your crops need to thrive.
