Working with Greenhouse Systems
iAVs (Integrated Aquaponic Systems) are well-suited for greenhouses since they were designed for controlled environments. Greenhouses offer:
- Protection from bad weather
- Control over temperature
- The chance to grow plants for more extended periods
To add iAVs to an existing greenhouse, you’ll likely need to:
- Set aside space for fish tanks and sand-based planting beds
- Make sure there are proper plumbing and drainage systems
- Possibly change existing watering setups
Adapting for Indoor Systems
Although iAVs are typically used in greenhouse-like environments, they can also work indoors with some adjustments:
- Lighting: You’ll need extra grow lights to replace sunlight
- Space: The system should be sized appropriately for indoor use
- Climate control: You’ll need to manage the indoor environment to suit both the plants and the fish.
