PRODUCT FOCUS EP. 4 | Air Handling Units BioTherm Solutions 2022-03-28 | BioTherm is proud to now offer air handling units to our Optimized Air technology division!This facility located in St. Louis, Missouri, needed to have a climate system that could provide an optimized environment for their crop-- housed in a building with little insulation. They wanted to be able to provide their plants the proper temperature & humidity year-round.To control proper air temperature & humidity, BioTherm provided an advanced “4-pipe” system of air handlers. While many growers are familiar with traditional air conditioners and dehumidifiers, most don’t understand the more advanced 4-pipe systems.How 4-pipe systems work:• Humidity-laden air enters the air handlers.• Pipes 1&2 – The air flows over coil #1, which is flowing with chilled water. The cold coil condenses the moisture from the air and the water is sent to drain or to be treated for re-use.• Pipes 3&4 – The second coil has warm water coursing through it & brings the air that is now dry & cold back up to the proper temperatures for what is called “neutral discharge”• The systems run off hydronic circuits connected to pumps & high-efficiency Raypak boilers and chillers- all located remotely.Benefits of 4-pipe systems:1. You can cool, heat, or dehumidify from the same device2. 4-pipe systems are the most reliable and long-lasting AC/Heat/Dehu systems made.3. Unlike a combination of traditional AC & separate dehumidifiers, 4-pipe systems don’t have compressors in the space, which create heat, thereby requiring more cooling tonnage.For more information, please visit biothermsolutions.com or call 1-800-GET-HEAT.

PRODUCT FOCUS EP. 2 | DuoFin Finned Heat Pipe BioTherm Solutions 2021-07-07 | In episode 2 of our Product Focus series, Jim discusses the differences between DuoFin and DuoFin Lite finned heating pipe.BioTherm DuoFin™ is our lowest heat output finned pipe commonly used for under bench, perimeter, and in-crop heating. Its unique tapered vertical fin delivers a combination of convective and radiant heating quietly and efficiently. Also available with shorter fins, DuoFin Lite is designed for areas requiring less heat.Having only two fins means that more loops are needed to meet your heat load than with its sister product, StarFin—but it also means you’ll never have to clean debris from the fins.
PRODUCT FOCUS EP. 1 | StarFin Finned Heat Pipe BioTherm Solutions 2021-06-23 | Join Jim as he explains BioTherm's StarFin! BioTherm StarFin’s tapered six-fin design has three times the surface area of two-fin designs or 51mm thin-wall steel tubing.This increased surface area produces BioTherm StarFin’s high heat output, allowing lower water temperatures to be used while producing soft, gentle greenhouse heat.High heat output cuts installation time and labor because fewer pipes are required to meet the heat load. Our large I.D. allows long loops with generous flow rates, resulting in greater evenness.
SHOP STORIES EP. 2 | BioTherm CO2 Enrichment BioTherm Solutions 2021-02-09 | In episode 2 of Shop Stories, Jim stops by BioTherm HQ to check in on the newly finished CO2 Enrichment system that we discussed last time. Oscar just put the finishing touches on the packaged CO2 system and it's ready to be sent to our customer!WHY CO2 IS IMPORTANT: CO2 enrichment decreases the oxygen inhibition of photosynthesis and increases the net photosynthesis in plants. This is the basis for increased growth rates caused by CO2 at low as well as at high light levels. Elevated CO2 concentrations also increase the optimal temperature for growth.CO2 levels are naturally low in a greenhouse environment as plants use available CO2 as part of the photosynthetic process.HOW BIOTHERM CAN HELP:Increasing CO2 levels above ambient conditions promote increased plant growth and health. With the right condensing boiler system in place, a BioTherm CO2 System can easily be integrated to achieve elevated CO2 levels in the greenhouse or indoor growing environment.BioTherm systems pull CO2 directly from the boiler’s exhaust gases and distribute them uniformly into the growing environment while ensuring other harmful gases are kept at a safe level. With a BioTherm CO2 System, there is no need for large bulk tanks or individual CO2 burners. These systems can be used in indoor and greenhouse operations.To learn more, visit biothermsolutions.com or call 1-800-GET-HEAT!
