Indications of poor ventilation are poor air circulation or draughts, fluctuations in temperature, wet (damp) bedding, build-up of dust or cobwebs, and any respiratory problems in livestock, drop in milk yields, lower feed intake and low fertility rates.

The purpose of good, controlled air ventilation is to provide a continuous supply of fresh outside air, this will help with common issues such as eliminating airborne diseases, mastitis recurrence, reducing carbon dioxide and ammonia levels, to help in regulating temperature and humidity levels for comfortable livestock housing levels.
