Energy-Efficient Vivarium Humidification System at Las Vegas University
UniversitiesA Las Vegas University sought an energy-efficient way to control humidity in its 10,000-square-foot vivarium and laboratory space, where researchers raise animals and plants for study. To meet this need, they installed a MeeFog system, capable of delivering up to 245 lbs of humidity per hour across fifteen stages. This system is paired with a Mee RO water treatment system, ensuring the use of pure water throughout the process.
