Environmentally friendly conditioning system particularly for a greenhouse

Abstract

An environmentally friendly system (10) and corresponding method are provided for the conditioning of an indoor space (50), particularly of a greenhouse (60), in terms of the temperature, the humidity and sterility thereof. Air is forced into the indoor space (50) via a cloud of drops to form an air-water mixture, thereby conditioning the airstream as desired. The mixture then passes through a diffuser arrangement (30) to remove much of the water entrained by the airstream, and the resulting flow is provided to the indoor space (50). The degree of conditioning may be controlled by adjusting the delivery pressure and the form and density of water drops in the cloud, and the water drops optionally contain an evaporable biocide. Preferably, the system maintains a positive air pressure throughout the defined indoor space (50).
