OVERVIEW

The Tow and Blow frost fans are the ultimate solution to combat frost. With the mobile wind machines portability, it can be relocated quickly to protect different areas of your crop and adjusted to suit prevailing winds, and best positioned within the terrain for maximum protection. As this machine is portable, no council approval is required nor are any foundations needed. Due to the Tow and Blow frost fans narrow wheelbase, the machine can be positioned between the rows of your crop, eliminating the need to remove any vines or trees to allow for this protection.

The Tow and Blow frost fans are unprecedented in frost protection for vineyards and orchards, with results showing that the machine operates at half the noise level of any other wind machine in the world. It is difficult to hear at 300 metres, hence reducing any interference with neighbouring properties.

The Tow and Blow frost fans are more efficient than conventional frost control methods in the horticulture and viticulture industries, using only 5 litres of diesel per hour. Auto start/stop is a standard feature on these frost protection machines, further enhancing efficiencies.

With the Tow and Blow’s frost fans adjustable fan head angle this mobile wind machine is well suited to valleys or hills. The entire fan head oscillates horizontally exponentially increasing the area that this machine protects.

During the summer months, the Tow and Blow frost fan can be put to good use, being perfectly suited for general ventilation and cooling applications in abattoirs and protecting crops against excessive heat burning plants. Other applications include drying fruit pre-harvest and before pruning.

We LOVE these bins. They are so incredibly useful at the farm. We are good for now but I do foresee a possible order for more down the road. Thanks for checking in!

Judd – Southern Sky Farms

The ladders arrived lunchtime Wednesday as you said it would. It is exactly what I needed I am very impressed so thank you very much for your great service.

The Tippers fitted our purpose and were higher specs that the ones we had been using. We’ve now purchased 2 with another 2 on order. They do everything we ask them to do, fit for purpose

Chris – National Logistics Manager SPC

The ladders are made good to the point where the pickers & harvest group are very happy with them. They are very light so it makes it a lot easier for our harvest group to transport them from tree to tree and also for us as farm managers to transport them from one farm to another. We like them so much that we’ve doubled our order for 2018.
