Turbomist
Striking the perfect balance. Whether making wine, running a business or managing work & life priorities, that’s the ideal we all strive for. In viticulture, perhaps more than any other industry, our success tomorrow is rooted in being a good steward of the land and environment today. It is our shared commitment to protecting the delicate balance of the terroir, by marshalling our resources and minimizing our environmental footprint as business owners. For grape growers, the Okanagan’s own Turbo-Mist Sprayer is where it begins.
Sustainability starts at the molecular level.
Turbo-Mist crop sprayers and Grape Towers allow you to reduce your water, fuel and chemical consumption, while consistently improving crop yield. That’s money in the bank, both financially and environmentally. It begins with the water molecule: with the Turbo-Mist Airblast Sprayer and Grape Tower, you control the size of the water molecule, optimizing it for conditions as needed through nozzling and calibration; you control air behaviour across the RPM range, allowing you to slow the speed of the fan while retaining airflow consistency. This allows for accurate targeting of the spray, eliminating waste and maximizing coverage at a lower horsepower.
Slimline save time
Gear Up Throttle Down: Save money, water, fuel and chemicals.
Only the Turbo-Mist sprayer can maintain perfectly consistent airflow without full tractor power, so why waste fuel? By shifting to a higher tractor gear (Gearing up) and slowing engine rpm’s (Throttling down) to maintain your desired ground speed, The Turbo-Mist Sprayer enables you to save up to 40% on fuel. At the same time, by lobbing the spray into the plume, rather than blasting through it, you are increasing your coverage, resulting in fewer required sprays. What does that mean? You save on fuel, and save 20%+ on chemicals, while improving plume coverage by as much as 30%. You make an environmental impact when you choose the Turbo-Mist.
