Look Up, Down and Around Before Winter. 🥶

Here’s one more thing to check before winter settles in—your curtains.

Take a look at the curtain itself, cables, motors, pulleys and controls. A small problem today can turn into a big headache when you’re trying to manage ventilation on a cold winter morning.

At Lange Ag, we work with producers on livestock curtains and ventilation equipment to help keep barns operating the way they should all winter long.

And as this year’s projects wind down, it’s never too early to start planning for next year. We’re here to help you plan, prepare and keep things running.

❄️ Winter Prep Isn’t Just About Heat! 🐷

When you think about getting your swine barn ready for winter, heaters probably come to mind first. But don’t forget about your fans!

Before temperatures drop, take some time to:

✅ Clean your fans
✅ Check motors, belts, shutters & controls
✅ Make sure your ventilation system is ready for cold weather

Finding a problem now is a lot better than finding it when temperatures drop! 🥶

At Lange Ag Systems, we work with producers on ventilation systems, parts and equipment. If you’ve been thinking about a remodel, expansion or new barn for next year, now is a great time to start the conversation.

🥶 Don’t Wait for the First Cold Night.

Winter has a way of finding the weak spots in a swine barn. Now is the time to make sure your heaters and brooders are ready to go.

🔥 Are they firing properly?
🧹 Are they clean?
🌡️ Are thermostats and controls working properly?

A little preparation now can help prevent bigger headaches when you need that heat the most.

Lange Ag Systems carries LB White and Space Ray heaters, brooders and controls to help keep your barn ready for winter.

And while you're preparing for winter, it’s also a good time to start thinking about next year’s projects. We’re here to help you plan, prepare and keep things running.

🐷 Good Gating Helps the Whole Barn Work Better.

Gating plays an important role in more than just separating pens. Animal movement, employee access, daily chores, cleaning, and safety all depend on a layout that fits the operation.

Whether you're remodeling an existing facility or planning a new barn, Lange Ag Systems can help you plan a gating system that supports both the animals and the people working inside the barn every day.

Your gating gets used all day, every day.

Moving pigs, sorting, cleaning, and loading—it needs to handle real barn life without becoming another maintenance project.

Mike talks about why choosing the right gating matters for both new construction and remodels. 👇
