INTRODUCTION: The 10 Reasons Why
Runtime: 30 sec.

REASON #1

INTEGRATED UNITARY SYSTEM DESIGN

WITH DEHUMIDIFICATION PRIORITY

  • Many systems sold to growers today lack dehumidification capacity and therefore cannot consistently or adequately control critical humidity levels.
  • Our unitary system with dehumidification priority is designed to handle humidity first and foremost. Cooling and precise temperature control is easily accomplished after that.
  • Our systems dynamically deliver dehumidification, cooling, or heating depending on room requirements with the exceptional efficiency that only a unitary system can provide.
  • The result: A cost-effective, scalable system that delivers precise, dynamic room control and energy savings, along with exceptional redundancy and reliability.

REASON #2

DRY COOLER

HEAT REJECTION

  • Other manufacturers use refrigerant-based outdoor condensers, which are not only expensive to operate and maintain, but highly inefficient, bad for the environment, and prone to service issues.
  • Our proprietary, custom-designed dry coolers use a water-glycol fluid mix to reject heat outdoors, thereby reducing expensive refrigerant usage by more than 85%. This usage is reduced by as much as 90% in our revolutionary Compressor Wall Technology, a truly eco-friendly solution.
  • Dry Cooler Technology also virtually eliminates the risk of plant-killing refrigerant leaks and provides superior reliability.
  • With just PVC piping to connect, it’s easier and less expensive to install. Plus, there are no line length limitations.
  • Virtually maintenance-free, our dry coolers have redundant pumps on every module for added reliability and can be grouped into multiple modules for space savings and additional stages of redundancy.
  • Impervious to the risks of low ambient temperature, this technology comes loaded with sensors that enhance performance integration with our dehumidifier control systems.

REASON #3

BUILT-IN

PERFORMANCE REDUNDANCY

  • An HVAC unit failure could cost your entire crop. That’s why
    redundancy, back-up, and failover systems are not an option. They are essential.

  • The AGronomic IQ Series has multiple levels of built-in
    redundancy with no single point of failure.

  • Our patented Compressor Wall Technology has between 4
    and 16 separate, independent refrigeration circuits, along with multiple redundant fans to provide fail-safe performance.

  • We provide the smartest and most integrated redundancy of
    any manufacturer in this industry.

REASON #4

COMPRESSOR
WALL TECHNOLOGY

(CWT)

  • We invented this revolutionary technology specifically for grow rooms. It checks every box to deliver the ultimate solution: performance, reliability, eco-friendliness, and energy efficiency.  
  • Compressor Wall Technology combines multiple small refrigeration circuit modules, each with a minuscule amount of refrigerant charge, to significantly reduce refrigerant-related risks and create up to 16 levels of redundancy in a single unit. 
  • Along with a host of impressive features and benefits, CWT is not only exceptionally reliable but also very simple and inexpensive to service with its plug and play recyclable modules. 
  • CWT offers up to 32 stages of variable compressor capacity throughout every stage of growth. This flexibility results in commensurate energy savings and reduced equipment wear and tear, particularly in early stages of growth.

REASON #6

VARIABLE

CAPACITY COMPRESSORS

  • Other manufacturers typically default to single-stage compressors that are either on or off.
  • This on-off, short-cycling causes unstable room conditions that constantly increase or decrease in temperature and relative humidity with each on-off cycle. Not only that, short-cycling also creates excessive compressor wear and tear that results in a shorter life expectancy and reduced reliability.
  • As standard, we use variable-capacity scroll compressors that dynamically adjust to match load requirements more precisely, resulting in less energy consumption and a greater equipment life expectancy.

INTERNET MONITORING

AND REMOTE CONTROL

  • Imagine remote, real-time Internet monitoring and control of over 100 system parameters, and technology that delivers automated trouble alerts to help protect against serious issues before they arise.
  • Now imagine the same factory technicians, service teams, and engineers who designed and built the equipment being able to monitor, trouble-shoot, and fine tune the performance to your specifications — all without leaving their offices. That’s real peace of mind.
  • Add to that, the ability to review 18 months of historical performance data with virtually minute-by-minute room conditions logged on our servers. What better way to know what’s going on in your rooms in real time, and looking back over multiple growing cycles, the exact conditions your HVAC equipment provided.
  • Nobody else offers this level of technology and support for grow rooms. The best part? It’s free from AGronomic IQ for the lifetime of your equipment. All that’s required is an Internet connection.

PRECISE MODULATING

PERFORMANCE CONTROL

  • Every grower wants precise, consistent room control without unwanted fluctuations of temperature or humidity. Our proprietary control systems do exactly that.
  • AGronomic IQ control systems provide the ultimate in modulated heating and cooling (instead of on-off) to deliver the most stable room conditions possible.
  • Other systems use a binary on-off heating cooling system that continuously overheats then overcools the room with correlating variations in relative humidity. This is definitely not what you want.
  • The added benefit of precise modulating control in a unitary system is lower operating costs and reduced wear and tear on compressors, making the system more energy efficient and longer lasting.

SERVICE VESTIBULE

COMPONENT PROTECTION

  • Equipment serviceability and critical component protection is a big deal. That’s why we go above and beyond our competitors to protect your investment.
  • In most of our designs, all major refrigeration and electronic components, including compressors, are kept in a separate vestibule outside of the treated airstream. This ensures longevity by protecting equipment from hot, humid air while maximizing performance efficiency.
  • Even better, our design allows maintenance and service work to be completed accurately and quickly without interrupting airflow. There is no need to stop and restart the system multiple times while making critical system adjustments.
  • The result is less time servicing equipment, more accurate service readings, and less risk of contamination.
