Stop treating pneumonia that started in the air

Read the pen at calf height, get notified when conditions turn risky, and put your effort into fixes that match what the shed is actually doing. This pathway is about calf pneumonia risk, not adult cattle heat stress.

From box to useful data in four steps

Pneumonitor installed in housing, ready to capture pen conditions
  1. Install in the pen

    Mount Pneumonitor at calf height using the fixing guide. Start with pens that already have disease pressure, or any corner of the shed you know is a problem.

  2. Capture the microclimate

    It tracks temperature, humidity and ammonia in the pen and streams those readings to your dashboard.

  3. Get notified early

    Turn on notifications and Pneumonitor will alert you when conditions look likely to raise pneumonia risk, through calf stress or a poorer pathogen environment.

  4. Fix what the data shows

    Use the history to see which pens drift into risk and whether your changes worked. Spend effort on the problems you can evidence, not the ones you only suspect.

Common questions from farmers

It depends on the shed. We suggest one for each microclimate. E.g. one near an open side, one in the middle of the shed, one by a far wall.
