theres a grant of £500 for each PPTV or Calfvent system available until January.
PPTV can be used for cows and calves and for sheep. To a lesser extent they can apply to goats but you need to be careful with the sensitivity of young goats to draughts.
El lewis at Magdek designs automatic Positive Pressure using the Wisconsin Dairy Initiative program that has really exploded the effectiveness of this type of ventilation.
Its not just a punched tube. Every PPTV has 30 years of experience in :
1. Suspension methods that last.
2. Materials that are hard wearing but cheap to replace.
3. Electric motors designed for best performance at least cost.
4. All weather protection.
5. One man installation design.
6. Knowing the right speed for the right fan in the right shed.
