FIELD: agriculture. SUBSTANCE: apparatus for rearing fur-producing animals in summer period and in hot climatic zones has house with cooled air circulation system, gas-distributing stations and substations with cold producing refrigerating units using natural gas pressure difference. Cold is initially transferred through heat-exchanger to aqueous solution of ethylene glycol used as coolant, then through coolant to ambient air. Coolant source positioned at gas-distributing stations has expansion engine, pulsed gas coolers and vortex tubes. EFFECT: increased disease- resistance of animals, high quality of fur, reduced power consumption and increased profitability. 3 cl, 2 dwg
