Natural Ventilation
Spec sheets, drawings, and equations are important when choosing a ventilation system. However, none of those illustrate the power of a ventilation system like a CFD model. Seeing how the air will move through a new building in vivid, living color makes the ventilation decision process easier.
These days architects must integrate sustainable commercial ventilation systems into the building at the design stage to ensure effectiveness. Retrofitted ventilation is possible but is never as effective. Additionally, even small modifications to a building can disrupt the efficiency of natural ventilation. Furthermore, major changes can completely disrupt airflow. The success of natural ventilation in
Jalousie windows, sometimes called awning windows, are composed of glass or acrylic panels set parallel in a frame. They are like window blinds. Unlike window blinds, however, jalousie blades bring fresh air into a building instead of light. As modern commercial buildings embrace natural ventilation jalousie windows are becoming increasingly popular. Cooling of Jalousie Windows
A modern ventilation system can prevent condensation from forming on stored steel coils. Not just cleaning or drying the moisture but preventing condensation in the steel coil storage area all together. Utilizing three different ventilation methods; natural ventilation, Pressure Gravity, and heated destratification, the building’s conditions are made perfect. The right ventilation system creates an
The TriadVent dual-use daylighting natural ventilator is designed for commercial and industrial applications. It provides commercial and industrial daylighting to any interior workspace. Similar ventilation & daylighting units have been in service for over 40 years throughout the world. What is The TriadVent? When opened it is an effective natural ventilation device, letting hot air
Aat Moffitt, we always tell people that while roof ventilation is vital for any building, air conditioning is not. That is why, for over 55 years, we have been designing natural roof ventilation systems. Gravity Ventilation is the process of installing vents on the roof to remove heat that rises in warehouses and factories Drastically
Natural lighting and ventilation are underemphasized in the U.S. Buildings all over the world have seen its benefits in schools, offices, and industrial plants, but the U.S. is lagging. Studies show that we work better in environments with plenty of sunlight and fresh air. Properly lit, properly ventilated spaces improve morale, and makes people happier.
