  1. Versatility

    Most citrus fruits are grown in a warmer climate region. However, with today’s global climate change resulting in unpredictable weather patterns, the Tow & Blow Frost Fan gives you the assurance of protection in a cold event. The unique design of this fan can provide effective frost protection for all citrus crops even grown in valleys or on hills. The ability to angle the Tow and Blow impeller and horizontally oscillate the fan head for these applications allows for exceptional versatility and completely sets this machine apart from traditional fans. Not only for frost, but also fruit/canopy drying after rain before harvest.

  2. Portability

    Portability is second to none. Easily transported behind a tractor or vehicle. Stabiliser support feet are lowered to a secure position and the machine levelled for operation.

  3. Quiet

    With a noise level of only 55 decibels at 300m.

Hydraulic Lift

Three height positions
