  • Drying and pre-heating of rooms (farrowing, gestating, mating, fattening) are carried out by HEOSS gas unit heaters to ensure a comfortable environment for the animals.
  • Economical ventilation controlled by the Digiclim NG touchscreen controller ensures an ideal atmosphere for animal well-being.
