In-Bench Heating
The in-bench heating systems from BioTherm Solutions deliver the heat right to the potting media. For growers, these integrated root-zone heating systems cut fuel costs, save energy, and result in thriving, successful crops.
In-bench heating is a cost-effective and energy efficient solution to create healthier and higher yielding grow environments. Our radiant in-bench heating solutions are built directly into the grow bench to deliver heat right to the potting medium. This rootzone heating system improves water and nutrient uptake for stronger, healthier plants and higher quality crops.
In-Bench Heating for Cost and Energy-Efficiency
A study published in California Agriculture by professors Bryan M Jenkins, Roy M Sachs and Glen W Forister showed that conductive under-bench heating systems used 25% less energy than conventional perimeter heating systems. This same bench heating system maintained even canopy temperatures around the plants and resulted in fewer hot and cold pockets. This system produced consistent output in and around the plants where they needed it most with less input.
You can fully integrate BioTherm’s radiant heating products with existing greenhouse benches. This allows you to direct heat exactly where it needs to go: the rootzone. Plus, you can cut our tubing systems to match any bench length for seamless integration without needless waste.
On-Bench Heating
For most production greenhouses, the temperature of the plant is the temperature that counts. We have several solutions to fit different benching strategies, including heating systems that fit directly on top of your greenhouse benches.
Our radiant on-bench heating solutions are built directly on top of the grow bench to deliver heat right to the potting medium. This rootzone heating system encourages better water and nutrient absorption for stronger, healthier crops and higher quality yields. On-bench heating systems integrate with grow benches so you get more functionality out of your existing setup.
