Viticulture frost protection: secure your vines against spring frost for the long term with a powerful, mobile solution specially designed to protect crops against frost.<\/em><\/p>

Spring frosts are now one of the main risks for vines. A single night’s frost can jeopardize an entire production season, impacting yields and undermining vineyard operations for years to come. <\/p>

The V3c anti-freeze tower, <\/b>designed and developed by passionate and committed winemakers and industrialists to protect crops against spring frosts. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

How does the VENTIGEL V3c antifreeze tower work?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The V3c anti-freeze tower is a system designed to protect vines from radiant frost.<\/p>

The primary objective<\/strong> of VENTIGEL\u2122 V3c is to ventilate early enough with a powerful jet of pulsed air and thus dry out vineyard plots and prevent the formation of condensation on plants. It also enables the redistribution of rising warm air during a radiant frost. <\/p>

The second purpose of<\/strong> VENTIGEL\u2122 is to provide calories when temperatures continue to drop during the night. Its concentric jet of air at over 35 m\/s (126 km\/h) enables it to cover long distances and still have air movement at 100 m (i.e. 3.14 hectares). <\/p>

The VENTIGEL\u2122 V3c’s adjustable inclination<\/strong> allows it to adapt to any type of terrain, and its 1\/2 cone-shaped air outlet gives it a wider jet of air while remaining sufficiently flattened to the ground by the Coanda effect.<\/p>

This dries out the vegetation and limits evaporative cooling. The air in the plot circulates. Low points where cold air accumulates are also eliminated. <\/p>

\u2714 Materials and design<\/strong><\/h4>

VENTIGEL\u2122 V3C is manufactured with materials suitable for outdoor use even in demanding climatic conditions. This choice guarantees optimum durability. Entirely manufactured and assembled in France by POLYPOLES (33), specialists in aeraulic systems for 30 years. <\/span><\/p>

Concerning the power supply, the VENTIGEL\u2122 V5 is electrically powered for ventilation and rotation, and diesel-powered for heating.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\u2714 Proven effectiveness<\/strong><\/h4>

The VENTIGEL\u2122 system acts on two levels to limit the damage caused by radiative freezing:<\/p>

  • Dries out the air around sensitive buds<\/li>
  • Reduces frost formation<\/li>
  • Raises the temperature evenly across the treatment area<\/li><\/ul>

    \u2714 Ease of use<\/strong><\/h4>

    Assembly requires just a forklift and less than 1\/2 hour’s work. Compact, it can be stored on your property at the end of the frost period. VENTIGEL\u2122 requires very little annual maintenance. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

    The VENTIGEL\u2122 V3c frost protection tower offers many advantages over other frost control solutions such as candles, heating wires or some sprinkler systems.<\/p>

    Its main assets include:<\/p><\/div>

    • EFFICIENT<\/strong>: Efficient for 2 to 3 hectares, mobile at will, easy to use.<\/li>
    • ELECTRIC<\/strong>: its high-flow helical ventilation, based on an electric motor, is easy to use and maintenance-free over time (compared to expensive, polluting and complicated combustion engines).<\/li>
    • INTEGRATED HEATING<\/strong>: Its 110 kW oil-fired auxiliary heating system adds heat to the main airflow. Thanks to its flexible rotating sheath, 100% of this energy is used. <\/li>
    • ECONOMICAL<\/strong>: The investment is much lower than for existing systems, and no civil engineering work is required. Installation costs are minimal, and power consumption is just a few euros per hour. <\/li>
    • ECOLOGICAL<\/strong>: Electricity consumption is just 12 kWh, and auxiliary heating consumes less than 11 L\/h of fuel. Once stored, it has no visual impact. <\/li>
    • MOBILE<\/strong>: The VENTIGEL\u2122 V3c is less than 1 m wide and can be placed between the rows of vines. It has its own 3-point hitch. <\/li>
    • MADE IN FRANCE<\/strong>: VENTIGEL\u2122 V3c is patented. It is manufactured in Le Haillan (33) with a group of local subcontractors. <\/li><\/ul>
