Humidity control and drying for vertical and indoor farming: FAQs

Why is humidity control important in vertical indoor farming?

Whether you’re cultivating fruit, vegetables or another kind of crop, overly high humidities are a constant concern in your indoor growing environment. By keeping the amount of water vapour in the air just right, professional moisture control:

  • Optimises your plant’s growth, allowing the ideal conditions to be maintained from early germination to the late flowering stages

  • Maximises the quality and quantity of your vertical farm yields, improving the profitability of your operations

  • Safeguards the health, safety and focus of employees working in these environments, improving your teams’ productivity

  • Protects your buildings and the equipment inside against the threat of electrostatic discharge and water damage

If your indoor farm is hydroponic, not soil-based, having large volumes of moisture in the air can become an even greater issue. This is because water-based hydroponic systems will naturally introduce more water vapour indoors over time, potentially placing your produce, people and operations at risk.

As a manufacturer with decades of dedicated expertise in agriculture climate control, we can ensure you receive the ideal dehumidification solution for your vertical farms’ exact needs. Speak to our expert team today to get started.

How do dehumidifiers work in a vertical indoor farm?

Dehumidifiers physically capture excess moisture throughout your indoor growing environments. This helps establish drier conditions for cultivating crops through all four seasons.

What is the ideal humidity level for a vertical farm?

Generally speaking, during the initial germination and propagation stages, most plants require a relative humidity (RH) of between 70% and 80% for optimal development.

In the growth phase, humidity should sit between 50% and 80%. Then, during flowering, drier conditions of between 40% and 60% are recommended.

Our sophisticated humidity control systems can be set up to automatically adjust their performance at the various stages of your plants’ growth. This ensures that they are surrounded by the optimal humidity at all times, leading to greater quality produce and stronger yields, with far less waste.

Can dehumidifiers prevent mould and mildew in indoor farms?

Yes, dehumidifiers are effective at mould prevention. They do this by creating drier growing atmospheres with minimal condensation, meaning mould and mildew cannot develop on your plants or in your grow rooms.

How do dehumidifiers improve crop yields in vertical farming?

Moisture control can help you maximise your crop yields in two main ways:

  • By allowing you to achieve the ideal growing conditions at every stage, crops can flourish as fast as possible

  • By protecting your plants against waterborne disease, you reduce the likelihood you have to discard any damaged produce at harvest time

Can dehumidifiers help maintain Vapour Pressure Deficit (VPD) in hydroponic systems?

Yes – equipping your hydroponic grow room with effective moisture control helps you maintain the ideal Vapour Pressure Deficit (VPD), which is crucial for healthy plant growth and optimal yields.

With a comprehensive range of humidity control equipment to choose from, speak to our experts to discuss the most efficient option for you.

How can moisture control protect equipment in vertical indoor farms?

Dehumidifiers prevent the formation of condensation in your vertical farms. This, in turn, protects your electrical equipment, sensors and other apparatus from corrosive water damage.

Do you sell energy-efficient humidity control for indoor farms?

Yes, our range of high-performance dehumidification systems are some of the most efficient solutions on the market.

Combining decades of expertise, high-quality components, and a steadfast commitment to European engineering, the solutions we supply enable vertical farms to maintain ideal humidity conditions, no matter the growing season.

What are the maintenance requirements for humidity control in vertical farming?

The maintenance requirements of your moisture control technology depend on how often your systems are used, the amount of water vapour your systems capture, and the climate they operate.

As such, we recommend following the suggestions outlined in your units’ instruction manuals to determine how often your units should be serviced.

Can I buy your moisture control units for vertical and indoor farming online?

We don’t make our humidity control available to purchase online to ensure that every system we design, manufacture and supply fits your exact requirements. By taking a consultative approach with a highly-trained expert, we make sure that you are only recommended equipment that meets your needs – and fulfils these in the most efficient, cost-effective way possible.

Across all of our products, VAT-registered companies can get a quote very quickly by pressing 'I want to buy' and inserting your enquiry and contact details.

How soon can you supply your moisture control units to my vertical farm or growing room?

This varies on a case-by-case basis. For some standard products, accessories and consumables, we can provide day-to-day delivery. For larger orders or more bespoke solutions, there may be a longer lead time.

By reaching out to our experts we can put you in touch with your nearest local supplier so you can receive the products you require in the most timely manner possible.
