How to choose the right curtain?
The basic task of the air curtain is to isolate the interior of the room from the air flowing from outside . This is intended to provide thermal protection and eliminate energy losses. The device is mounted above the door, the opening of which causes air to mix. In winter, cold comes in, and in summer, heat comes in, making it difficult for the air conditioning to work. Therefore, the air curtain generates a stream of appropriate speed, which creates a kind of barrier in the door.
For this reason, air curtains are necessary in facilities where doors are often opened and closed or remain open for a long time. Therefore, they are useful in shops, restaurants and some offices. In addition to maintaining a constant temperature, the device also prevents dirt from the street and insects from entering the room. A properly selected air curtain can contribute to savings of up to 80%. So what should you consider when choosing?
To select the appropriate air curtain, it will be necessary to determine the heat source in the facility. The variant of the device will depend on it - with or without an electric water exchanger. The second factor influencing the decision is the width of the air curtain, which must be the same or larger than the door opening. Otherwise, the barrier will leave gaps on the sides that allow air to pass through. The issue of the curtain's reach is similar, as it must be properly adjusted to its installation height.
Slim air curtain - universality and high quality in one
One of the best choices is the Slim air curtain by FLOWAIR. This is a universal device that fits the requirements of 99% of facilities, effectively securing all door openings up to a height of 3.2 meters. This model works discreetly, ensuring a comfortable and draft-free climate.
Slim air curtains are easy to use, so anyone can easily configure them. Just mount and connect them - adapting their operation to your individual needs is possible thanks to several buttons on the side of the device. Moreover, it is the only air curtain on the market with a built-in motion sensor. It will be activated when the door is moved, so there is no need for any additional automation within the door.
When describing the advantages of the FLOWAIR Slim curtain, it is impossible not to mention its design. It was designed to be as unobtrusive as possible. It is therefore the narrowest device of this type available on the market - it is only 189 millimeters high. It is characterized by minimalist aesthetics and an economical form, thanks to which it does not disturb the interior design and at the same time does not take up valuable space. It is available in two color variants (light and dark), which makes it very easy to match it to the arrangement of the room.
The same discretion applies to the noise generated by the device. The Slim air curtain works very quietly, so it remains practically unnoticeable in the environment of conversations and everyday noise. The curtain structure includes, among others, a drive unit with a very large active outlet area, a grille divided into two independently adjustable parts and the possibility of installing an additional air filter.
