Grain Store Ventilation Equipment

Polycool Pedestal

Polycool is a plastic vertically standing, crop cooling and conditioning system, evolved from 40 years of research and development. It is used to control the heat of floor stored crops, using a fan positioned at the top of the pedestal. Polycool is a cost effective and flexible solution that ensures crops stay free from moulds and insects. Plastic pedestals are very much more robust than metal pedestals, withstanding years of rugged loader handling, whilst delivering the same cooling rates.

A 450mm slotted base section, allows air movement, reducing down to either a 200mm or a 150mm extension pipe, which is not slotted. Once grain is covering the ‘pedestal’, a fan is placed on top and used to either suck or blow heat from the crop as required. Constructed from robust food-grade twin wall plastic, the Polycool pedestals have been tested and approved by ADAS, and have a 50% more open area than other products available allowing fans to work to their full potential.

Metalcool Pedestal

Metalcool is a galvanised steel vertically standing crop cooling system. "Added strength by design", the Metalcool pedestals use louvred steel not punched, so no metal is removed leaving the section as strong as possible. The louvre has been designed to allow the optimum air movement whilst allowing use with OSR and other small grains.

2 sizes available:

Standard Metalcool Pedestal

3.5m total height which can be extended, louvered not punched for increased strength, 400mm square base, with 1.2m of 250mm section, reducing cone, and 2m of 150mm section. Suitable for OSR and cereal crops.

Recommended to be used with fans HA501289, HA501290, HA501292.

Maxi Metalcool Pedestal

5.3m total height which can be extended, louvered not punched for increased strength , 400mm square base, with 1.2m of 300mm section, reducing cone, and 2m of 200mm section. Suitable for OSR and cereal crops.

Recommended to be used with fans HA501291, HA501292.
