Natural Ventilation
If you took all of the energy that the MoffittVent™ saved buildings in 2016 and used it to power light bulbs, you would be able to power 470,006 incandescent light bulbs, or 1,880,022 CFL light bulbs, non-stop for one year. That’s enough bulbs for over 10,000 homes. There are a number of ways to do
At Moffitt, we constantly advocate for natural ventilation and roof vents for your buildings. But often, we will hear the argument that either air conditioning will always be superior, or that natural ventilation is not effective. We have one answer that trumps both arguments: The Buoyancy Effect. What is the Buoyancy Effect? Buoyancy is the
This year we celebrate our 55th year in business. We observe our anniversary by introducing our new Natural Solutions product line. Consequently, we also felt it was time to update our visual brand identity. For that reason, our logo, logotype, website, and branding have all received an upgrade. We have redesigned them to better highlight
When moving into a pre-existing facility the emergency fire system may need updating to fit current requirements. However, knowing the exact requirements for each building can be a challenge. While most warehouses in the U.S. require ESFR (Early Suppression, Fast Response) sprinkler systems many large facilities may also need Fire Protection Smoke Vents. Choosing the
Industries around the world are discovering the physical and financial advantage to free flowing, natural ventilation. Natural gravity roof ventilator has been in use since man first felt a strong breeze. Now with advanced manufacturing technology, and improvements in ventilation system design, better and more efficient natural ventilation is possible. Gravity Ventilators: Ventilating Naturally, Ventilating
Every day increasingly commercial and industrial buildings are seeing the benefits of buoyancy ventilation. This type of natural ventilation, also known as stack-effect ventilation, relies on the differences in temperature between the inside and outside of the building to promote airflow. By designing ventilation systems to take advantage of the buoyancy effect the interior can
Studies show that we work better in environments with plenty of sunlight and fresh air. While Natural Ventilation in the U.S. is still underutilized, buildings all over the world have seen its benefits in schools, offices, and industrial plants. Properly lit, properly ventilated spaces make everyone more efficient. That is why proper lighting and ventilation
