We have added videos on how to assemble our CFB and unboxing our Balanced Make-up Air System components. It is part of our ongoing goal to share new and interesting content and information to help you with your next project. What is a CFB? What is a Balanced Residential Make-up System? Lets break them down for you.

CFB Series MERV-13 Inline Filter Boxes

A CFB filter box is a high-performance solution for any application requiring in-line filtration. Constructed from 5052 H32 aluminum, the CFBs holds a standard 4″ filter and are designed to fit either 6″, 8″, 10″ or 12″ diameter duct. The lid attaches securely with latches, and opens easily for quick filter replacements. MERV-13 filters are included with every unit, but you can also upgrade to a MERV-15 filter. The higher the MERV rating the better the filtration and the cleaner the air will be in your home.

balanced make-up air system is designed to “make up” the air in your interior space that has been removed due to process exhaust fans. This type of HVAC solution pulls in fresh, tempered air from outside your building to replace existing air that cannot be recirculated. The International Residential Code (IRC) requires that makeup air be provided for kitchen hood exhaust systems with a capacity of 400 cfm or greater. Our balanced make-up air system can be customized to fit your needs with silencers, electric heater for cold climates and wall/roof caps.

Both provide better air filtration for your home to keep the air clean of allergens, smoke odors and particulates in the air, as well as provide the in-home air circulation that you need. You can check out our videos by clicking the links below.

KoldWave 5WK14 Water-Cooled Portable Air Conditioner

KoldWave products boast to be rugged, reliable and responsible. Able to withstand the abuse of the work environment and provide you the comfort you need.

KoldWave HKV Vertical Air-Cooled Portable AC is typically used for through-the-wall tent applications. The standard bi-directional free-blow grille arrangement distributes the air inside the tent. Optional plenum duct adapters extend the versatility of the units for other applications or where the tent structure must be ducted. Other applications include manufacturing processes or temporary spot cooling/heating.

If you are not needing to cool a tent perhaps the 5WK14 Water-Cooled Portable Air Conditioner is right for you. It is well suited for smaller areas such as offices and enclosed work areas. It is quiet yet efficient, delivering 10,800 BTU/HR of cooling and 12,200 BTU/HR of heating to spaces that need spot, supplemental, temporary, or emergency cooling.

When you need a more powerful spot cooler, the 6KK61 and 6KK92 Air-Cooled Portable Air Conditioners deliver the supplemental cooling you’re looking for. These units are simple to install and operate, offering customers a cooling capacity of 61,000 BTU/HR (6KK61) and 92,000 BTU/HR (6KK92). Rugged yet quiet these perform well in just about any application.

Thermal Destratification Fans

On November 13, 2018, in news, by Nicole
0

AirScape has developed a new Destratification fan designed to redistribute air throughout buildings to avoid hot air accumulating up at the ceiling.

Thermal stratification causes cold air to settle which forces hot air to rise. It can regularly cause 10 or more degrees variance in the temperature of a space. This usually leads to overheating in the Winter to compensate for the cold air felt in work areas. In the Summer, the air stratification often causes cold pockets from the A/C.

Destratification works to completely mix the warm and cold air. It helps move warm air down in Winter or to eliminate the cold pockets in the Summer, equalizing the temperature in the building. This drastically reduces heating and cooling costs and raises the overall comfort levels of the building occupants. It works best when pushed smoothly over a long distance to properly mix the high and low air temps, as this fan does, as opposed to the old method of large, slow moving rotating ceiling fans. Destratification even works in greenhouses, distributing heat evenly and keeping air moving over plants.

The AirScape DeStrat Fan can be used on the floor or suspended to blow air down or across the space. It moves an amazing 1500 cfm on high, with 10 speed settings to choose from, 3 times the cfm of most Destratification fans on the market.

Here is a quick video of the AirScape Destrat Fan moving smoke on speed 5 over 100 ft.

 

Wonder if it will work for you? Take a look at how well it worked in our warehouse office (1400 sq ft, 14 ft ceilings with ceiling diffusers, leaky doors and drafts – my feet are always cold). We used the fan on speed 3, 788 cfm @ 19.3 watts.

The heat at the ceiling quickly dropped as the air was moved downwards, reaching a nice balance within 1 hour. We did not have a perceptible draft at this speed, and everyone reported higher temperature comfort than before (my feet were finally warm). Since we’ve definitely hit cold late Fall weather here in Oregon, the regulated heat was really appreciated by everyone.

New AirScape Product Update

On October 31, 2018, in cool products, news, by Nicole

Direct Vent System for Greenhouse and Warehouse Ventilation

Engineers at AirScape are currently working on the finishing touches of a direct vent exhaust fan designed for industrial and commercial applications such as large indoor greenhouses and warehouses.

The system can be configured for roof or wall exhaust and has automatic Powered AirLock doors. There is an inlet louver with a Powered AirLock so that the space can be sealed up when no exhaust is desired.

Preliminary airflow testing is still incomplete because it outperforms our test chamber’s capacity…  Well over 8500 cfm on only speed 6 (out of 10)! More data to follow as we recalibrate be able to accurately test such high airflow.

One Big Reason to Get a HEPA Filter

Panorama of a hilly expanse featuring a large smoke trail covering more than half of the visible sky.

 

HEPA filters stop the vast majority (99.7%) of airborne particles greater than 0.3 microns. Most of the time, you’ll never need a filter that stops even smoke particles, but when you do, we have what you need.

The CFB-HP is a filter box that is meant to be used with an external fan. We also have several HEPA filter/fan combination boxes, but here’s a few reasons why you would use an external fan:

  • You want to distribute air evenly throughout your house or office
  • Very low sound levels (talk to us about how to do this)
  • When paired with an EC (electronically commutated fan), the energy use drops dramatically
  • You may want to direct the clean air or filter air from a particular room or area
  • This filter box works well with HRV’s
  • To avoid smoke infiltration during smoke situations, one strategy is to pull outside air through this HEPA filter and pressurize your house with clean air.

As always, please feel free to call our technical sales people for any application assistance. 888-855-7229 or email us at sales@hvacquick.com.
