The ventilation system is one of the most important, yet least understood components in a livestock or poultry barn. Its main functions are to remove respired moisture, excess heat, gases, odors and dust while maintaining a comfortable, draft-free environment. This environment should provide comfort for the animals - not just for the operator. The behavior and productivity of animals are the best clues to ventilation performance. The troubleshooting tables in this leaflet describe some of the problems that occur in livestock and poultry buildings, list the possible causes and suggest remedies.
