Vertical aeroponics setups are extremely efficient with space. Let's face it, space for gardening is expensive, whether you're considering an acre of land or a few hundred square feet in a building, so efficient use of what space you have is critical. In aeroponics, production can be increased 10-fold simply by building up instead of out.
Vertical aeroponics systems can save as much as 80% in space compared to its hydroponic cousin, NFT (nutrient film technique), since aeroponics doesn't need to include structures for a separate nutrient solution tank under each crop row. In aeroponics, a single reservoir with nutrient solution is typically located next to the production row, alongside the pump. This positioning not only saves space, but both reduces the load on the pump and overall electricity usage.
