Comparing suppliers and proposals

What changes when comparing proposals for a hot climate?

Direct answer

Cooling strategy, screen specification, ventilation area, water demand and pump duty dominate. Offers should be compared on the climate assumptions they used — design outside temperature, humidity and radiation — because a proposal that assumed milder conditions will look cheaper and underperform.

Where this sits in greenhouse irrigation system procurement

A greenhouse irrigation system is specified from crop water demand, growing system, water source quality and block layout — those four inputs decide pump duty, filtration, mainline sizing and emitter choice before any supplier is approached.

Typical procurement searches this answers: greenhouse irrigation system · greenhouse drip irrigation design · irrigation system for hydroponic greenhouse · greenhouse water requirement per hectare · fertigation equipment · fertigation system for greenhouse

Inputs that change the answer

  • Design outside conditions used per offer
  • Cooling method and capacity
  • Screen and ventilation specification
  • Water and energy implications

What this answer does not settle

Climate performance claims should be supported by the supplier's calculation, not by a brochure.
