Stable ventilation for the little ones
The optimum calf barn
Our virtual calf stall
You can see for yourself in our virtual calf barn: Discover our calf barn ventilation solutions, such as the TopCalf calf housing program and the fully automatic temperature control with climate controller.
Start your 3D tour with just one click and experience step by step how modern calf housing systems and sophisticated hose ventilation in the calf barn ensure a healthy barn climate for calves.
Whether summer or winter
Always the best climate in your barn
With the help of an adjustable double membrane , our combi hose automatically adjusts to cold or warm temperatures and the climatic differences between summer and winter. This makes the climate in the barn even better for your calves.
This development has the following advantages:
In summer mode (above 8 °C)
- Direct air flow onto the animals - Adjusted air flow depending on the temperature ensures a cooling effect
In winter operation (below 8 °C)
- Indirect air flow onto the animals - Cold air falls specifically onto the animals
The CAT3000® ensures optimum air exchange

Advantages
in the calf barn
Constant and effective fresh air supply in the calf barn
The textile hose with its variable nozzles delivers fresh air to the inside of the boxes - around the clock, all year round.
Reduction in veterinary costs and use of antibiotics
The improved air quality promotes the health of the calves as a preventative measure and supports healthy growth.
No circulation of the stable air
As the air is not recirculated but constantly renewed, the aggressive ammonia gas and the germ load in the calf rearing area are reduced.
Fast profitability through maximum animal welfare
Using the CAT3000® ventilation system reduces the cost of veterinary visits and lowers calf mortality. The optimized rearing environment pays for itself within a very short time.
Adaptation to seasonal and structural conditions
Stable ventilation with a ventilation hose compensates for all factors that could lead to an irregular and insufficient supply of fresh air.

Your FAQ about calf barn ventilation and barn climate
Why is good ventilation in the calf barn important?
Optimal ventilation reduces the concentration of harmful gases such as ammonia and CO₂, lowers humidity and improves air quality. This promotes the health of the calves and reduces the risk of respiratory diseases and other health problems.
What is hose ventilation in the calf barn?
Hose ventilation, such as the CAT3000® system, introduces fresh air evenly and draught-free into the barn. This improves air circulation and ensures a healthy barn climate, especially in closed or poorly ventilated barns.
How does hose ventilation work?
A fan feeds fresh air into a flexible hose, which distributes the air evenly throughout the hutch via perforated openings. The air speed is controlled so that there are no draughts, which is particularly important for sensitive calves.
Is hose ventilation in the calf barn also useful in winter?
What does hose ventilation in the calf barn cost?
Costs vary depending on barn size and specific requirements. However, it is important to consider the long-term savings from reduced veterinary costs and improved animal health.
How can I measure the air quality in the calf barn?
Air quality can be assessed by measuring ammonia and CO₂ concentrations as well as humidity. There arespecialized devices that monitor these parameters in the calf barn and thus enable targeted optimization of ventilation.
Do you also offer your ventilation systems for other animal species?
Yes, we offer suitable ventilation systems not only for calf and cattle barns, but also for horses, pigs, sheep and goats, sheep and goats and poultry. In this way, they ensure a healthy stable climate everywhere and promote the healthy development of the animals.
What alternatives are there to hose ventilation?
In addition to hose ventilation, there are natural ventilation systems in which fresh air enters the barn through open walls or ventilation flaps. However, this method depends on the weather and can be inadequate when there is no wind or high humidity.
How long does it take to install a hose ventilation system?
The installation of a 15-meter-long hose ventilation system usually takes around 5-6 hours, provided that no additional structural measures such as wall openings are required.
