Southwest Greens of Nevada, together with parent company Shaw Industries, announces the implementation of a patented HydroChill™ pre-coated filling. The new pre-coated product increases the success of HydroChill™ Home, an ingenious cooling system released in October 2013. Made to combat the heat on synthetic lawn and landscape surfaces, HydroChill is the first heat reduction technology of its kind and one of the lone solutions in the industry to produce significant and sustained temperature differences.

Although results will depend on geographic location and local conditions such as humidity, wind fluctuations and cloud cover, HydroChill Home has achieved 30°F to 50°F lower surface temperatures compared to a standard synthetic lawn surface when evaluated by an infrared thermometer. The technology is applied to a artificial lawn and, when covered by water, pulls heat from the turf system leaving a cooler, more comfortable surface. The cooling result of HydroChill Home after rainfall or watering can persist for days depending on local conditions and is most significant when surface temperatures are hottest. HydroChill is most impactful when the sun is closest to the earth’s surface resulting in temperature differences of 50 degrees in real world, third party validated outdoor tests.
