ThermaRoot 

Higher Yields Start at the Root

A modular system that puts energy exactly where plants need it — for stronger growth, healthier roots, and lower energy costs.

ThermaRoot™ is an innovative root-zone thermal panel designed to optimize crop health and increase yield by
directly controlling soil temperature. It integrates high-efficiency insulation, radiant heat reflection, and

fluid-based heating/cooling channels into a compact, durable structure.

Panel Specifications:
- Materials: XPS foam core, gold foil radiant surface, integrated red PEX tubing, metal channel support frame

- Application: Root-zone heating and cooling with efficient thermal transfer

As a dual-purpose system, ThermaRoot both heats and cools the root zone as needed, stabilizing the single most important variable in plant performance year-round. Its modular design installs directly on top of existing gutter systems, making it a straightforward upgrade that minimizes heat loss and reduces overall energy use compared to conventional whole-greenhouse climate control.

Built for commercial greenhouses, hydroponic systems, research facilities, and season-extension programs, ThermaRoot helps growers maintain stable root-zone conditions — supporting stronger, more uniform growth and more predictable yield, whatever the season throws at them.

Why you need ThermaRoot™

Precision root-zone temperature control, engineered for real greenhouse conditions.



Precision Heating & Cooling

Integrated root-zone heating and cooling keeps temperature exactly where plants need it — complementing ambient air systems instead of replacing them.


Proven Yield Increases

2025 trials showed up to a 20% increase in fruit and vegetable size and weight, with marketable yield up as much as 11%.


Easy Installation

ThermaRoot installs directly on top of your existing gutter systems, enabling modular, staged rollouts with minimal disruption to production.


Field-Tested Results

Backed by a full season of English cucumber and bell pepper trials across variable conditions, from extreme heat to cold-climate winters.


Lower Energy Costs

Instead of heating thousands of cubic meters of air, ThermaRoot targets the root zone directly — cutting overall heating load.


Healthier, More Uniform Crops

Growers saw more uniform fruiting, reduced blossom-end rot, and zero Pythium or Fusarium outbreaks across trial greenhouses.
