Flood Floor

BioTherm Flood Floor systems save water, conserve energy, reduce fertilizer waste, and reduce labor costs by up to 95%.

  • Cross Section: “V” or “W” pattern.
  • Flow Pattern: common fill and drain pipe located along floor valleys.
  • Watering Cycle: floor fills, floor drains then water is available for use in next zone.
  • Cycle Time: 6-10 minutes (minimum).
  • Material: precision installed structural concrete.
  • Containment: flexible rubber barrier surrounding floor perimeter which allows for ample employee and cart access.

Cascade Floor

BioTherm Cascade Floor systems create a thin sheet of water that flows evenly down an imperceptible slope from ridge to drain, uniformly distributing moisture for a homogeneous crop.

  • Cross Section: unidirectional slope.
  • Flow Pattern: independent fill pipe flowing to common drain pipe located at valley between two floors.
  • Watering Cycle: floor fills and drains simultaneously which makes water immediately available for same cycle use.
  • Cycle Time: only what you need (5-6 minutes typical).
  • Material: precision installed structural concrete.
  • Containment: flexible rubber barrier surrounding floor perimeter which allows for ample employee and cart access.
