Agricultural Ventilation Fans
Plastec Ventilation builds agricultural ventilation fans for environments exposed to moisture, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, and other corrosive contaminants. Proper ventilation helps control temperature, humidity, and airborne contaminants in livestock housing, grain storage, greenhouses, manure areas, and processing facilities.
OSHA's ammonia exposure limit is 50 ppm over 8 hours, while NIOSH recommends 25 ppm over 10 hours and a 35 ppm 15-minute limit. Our polypropylene fans and blowers provide corrosion-resistant airflow for demanding agricultural applications.
Why Airflow Matters in Agriculture
Agricultural facilities can contain ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, moisture, and dust. Proper ventilation helps control these conditions and maintain suitable environments for livestock, workers, crops, and equipment.
-
Corrosion & Chemical Resistance:
Ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, and moisture can contribute to corrosion. Polypropylene construction provides corrosion resistance for demanding agricultural environments.
-
Odor & Gas Control:
Ventilation helps remove airborne contaminants and odors. OSHA's hydrogen sulfide ceiling limit is 20 ppm, while NIOSH recommends a 10 ppm, 10-minute ceiling.
-
Humidity & Moisture Control:
Proper airflow helps reduce excess moisture and condensation in livestock buildings, greenhouses, and agricultural storage areas.
-
Livestock & Worker Comfort:
Ventilation helps manage temperature, humidity, and indoor air quality, supporting more comfortable conditions for livestock and workers.

Create an accountFrequently Asked Questions
What are agricultural ventilation fans used for?
Agricultural ventilation fans move air through barns, grain storage, greenhouses, and processing facilities to regulate temperature, reduce humidity, and exhaust gases like ammonia and hydrogen sulfide produced by livestock and stored crops.
Why do agricultural fans need to be chemically resistant?
Livestock housing and grain storage release corrosive gases that pit and degrade standard steel or aluminum fan housings over time. Chemically resistant polypropylene fans maintain airflow performance without corrosion damage, extending service life in these environments.
What size fan do I need for a barn or greenhouse?
Fan sizing depends on building volume, air changes per hour required, and static pressure from ductwork. Plastec provides performance and dimensional specification sheets for each model, and our team can help match a fan to your facility.
Are Plastec agricultural fans explosion-proof?
Yes. The XP Blower line is explosion-proof rated for combustible gas environments such as grain facilities and manure pits, where methane and other flammable gases can accumulate.
How do you maintain agricultural ventilation fans?
Regularly inspect fans for dust, debris, moisture buildup, and signs of corrosion or wear. Clean fan components as recommended by the manufacturer and check motors, belts, bearings, and electrical connections to help maintain reliable airflow.
Where can agricultural ventilation fans and blowers be used?
Agricultural ventilation fans and blowers can be used in livestock barns, poultry facilities, greenhouses, grain storage areas, manure handling spaces, and agricultural or food processing facilities where reliable and corrosion-resistant airflow is required.
