Humidity can be a tough problem to manage, especially in cannabis greenhouses. DryGair units combine active dehumidification with steady air circulation, preventing the formation of dew and protecting your crops from common diseases like powdery mildew and botrytis.

“Prior to DryGair, we spent a lot of money and energy reducing humidity by heating and ventilating. Since we’ve been using DryGair, we’ve been able to reduce our energy costs by about 50%, because now we don’t have to use the heating system as often as we used to, and we’re ventilating the room a lot less during the evening. I’ve worked with different dehumidifiers in the past, ranging from top-of-the-line brands to the bottom of the line. We’re currently experiencing issues in our other room with other dehumidifiers that create too much heat and consume too much energy.” 

“We sometimes use the DryGair units during the day, when it’s cloudy and we’re unable to ventilate the room. We find that DryGair is able to bring the humidity down to the exact level we need it to be. DryGair makes it really simple. All you have to do is put your set points in and the DryGair will do the rest.”

“We invested in DryGair mainly because we had issues with humidity. Because of the sizes of our flower rooms and the number of plants we have, there was an excess in the amount of moisture. If you can’t manage humidity during the evening, you’ll have a lot of issues with mold and bacteria, including diseases like powdery mildew.”

“Since we're using DryGair, we’ve seen amazing improvements to our product quality and yield. We’ve been able to reduce the number of molds. At the end of the day, we extract a lot more flower from the rooms than we used to.”

DryGair units help protect cannabis crops by preventing dew point formation and maintaining proper air circulation. This combination stops powdery mildew and botrytis from taking hold, two of the most common threats in cannabis cultivation. In fact, effective air circulation and dehumidification are crucial for healthy plant growth, and DryGair’s patented units provide both.

These moisture-related molds can destroy your entire flowering crop in just a day. DryGair dehumidifiers work around the clock to protect your plants, especially during the vulnerable flowering stage when keeping a low relative humidity (RH) is critical. DryGair units are designed to be the most efficient on the market, ensuring your flowers stay healthy and disease-free.

Important Note:
Healthy cannabis flowers are typically fat and sticky. However, when humidity levels are too high, the risk of mold and disease rises significantly, threatening the quality and yield of your crop.
