Grain Storage Humidity Control

Prevent spoilage, mold, and pest infestation in grain storage facilities with industrial desiccant dehumidifiers. Vision Air Conditioning offers expert solutions for agricultural warehouses across Canada and the USA.

Humidity Control in Grain Storage
  • How do you prevent pests and mold during long-term storage?
  • How can you reduce deterioration and preserve the viability of seeds?
  • What is the best way to avoid condensation and droplet moisture?
  • How do you protect warehouse infrastructure from corrosion and decay?
  • How can you create a stable, hygienic microclimate for grain storage?

Effective Humidity Control for Grain Storage

Proper storage of grains is essential for food security, profitability, and seed viability. Moisture management is the most critical factor for grain storage facilities, warehouses, and commercial farms. At Vision Air Conditioning, we deliver advanced solutions for keeping grain mass safe from spoilage and losses due to excess humidity.

Uncontrolled humidity in granaries can result in:

  • Development of insects and pests
  • Quality deterioration of food grains and seeds
  • Formation of condensation, mildew, and bacteria
  • Structural damage to buildings and infrastructure
  • Energy waste due to inefficient climate management

Our industrial desiccant dehumidifiers maintain ideal humidity in granaries and agricultural warehouses throughout Canada and the USA. With decades of expertise, we help prevent spoilage and ensure grain quality from harvest to delivery.

Advantages of Desiccant Dehumidifiers for Grain Storage

  • High drying efficiency with low energy consumption
  • Works reliably at low ambient temperatures
  • Compact design for easy installation in existing spaces
  • Fully automatable humidity control with smart monitoring
  • Corrosion-resistant construction (stainless steel, aluminum-zinc)
  • Compliance with global quality standards
  • Suitable for dry rooms and large-scale storage

Typical recommended relative humidity for grain storage (RH, %):

  • Buckwheat, wheat, rye, rice, barley: 46-48%
  • Bean crops: 47-50%
  • Corn, oats, millet: 45-55%

Our industrial dehumidifiers are trusted across many sectors: food industry, pharma, dry storage, and more. Get installation & maintenance support from Vision Air Conditioning.

How Does a Desiccant Dehumidifier Work?

Process air passes through a high-efficiency silica gel rotor, where water molecules are adsorbed. The rotor is then regenerated by a heated air stream (90-140°C), expelling moisture as warm exhaust. This process ensures precise, continuous humidity control—essential for grain storage, chemical, and power generation facilities.
