Why is climate control important in dog kennels?
Proper climate control ensures that dogs remain comfortable and healthy by maintaining optimal temperature and humidity levels, which helps prevent heatstroke, hypothermia, and respiratory issues.
What temperature should I maintain inside the kennel?
For adult dogs, temperatures between 65°F and 70°F are adequate. In whelping areas and nurseries, room temperatures can be between 70°F and 75°F, with surface temperatures where puppies are located at 90°F during the first week, decreasing by 5°F each subsequent week until reaching 70°F.
How does humidity affect kennel environments?
Maintaining appropriate humidity levels (ideally between 40% and 60%) helps prevent the growth of bacteria and mold, ensuring a healthier environment for dogs.
What are the risks of inadequate climate control in kennels?
Poor climate control can lead to health issues such as respiratory problems, heatstroke, hypothermia, and increased stress levels in dogs.
Keeping the interior of your kennel, shop, or barn is key to keeping your animals or stored items in good condition! Add an Electric Exhaust Fan to your building to make ventilation easy. Our exhaust fan comes with gable shutters that allow air to exit the building.
An electric exhaust fan with gable shutters is a ventilation system commonly used in residential and commercial buildings. It is designed to remove hot or stale air from an enclosed space and help improve indoor air quality. Continuously circulating air helps remove pollutants, moisture, and odors from the indoor environment.
An Electric Exhaust Fan can also help regulate the temperature in the space by expelling hot air. This can be especially useful in attics or other enclosed areas prone to overheating. Expelling moist air can also help prevent mold and mildew growth, which thrive in humid environments.
When used with other ventilation strategies, Electric Exhaust Fans can reduce the need for air conditioning and lower energy costs. In areas with little natural ventilation, an exhaust fan can help prevent air from becoming stale and stagnant.
Invest in an electric exhaust fan with Gable shutters and keep your building in better condition for longer!
This product is compatible with our TORK percentage timer, allowing you to set how long you want the fan to run, increasing energy efficiency and making regulating the temperature of multiple kennels so much easier!
