Unheated or ambient air curtains are used in environments where the prevention of heat loss in doorways and entrances is required, and where the temperature is not a particular concern. Ambient air curtains do not provide additional heating, instead, they act as a thermal barrier to prevent heat from escaping from indoor environments. Conversely, they can be used in cold store applications keeping cold in and warm air out.
Industrial ambient air curtains are used to prevent cold draughts and ensure comfortable heating indoors, with low energy consumption. By creating an air barrier, they are capable of minimising energy loss and contributing to cost savings. Typical applications include refrigerated storage and display facilities whereby maintaining airflow is a priority and additional heating is not required.
Puravent supplies a vast range of ambient air curtains, with sizes ranging from 2 metres to 6 metres, to cater for varying door sizes and allow the system to cover the full width of the door for optimum efficiency. Included in this range are several models of vertical ambient air curtains, ideal for larger industrial doorways.

Average The Room Is A Normal Residential Room, Office, Reception Area Or Similar, Where There Is Not Overly Crowded With People, Computer And Office Equipment.
Above Average There Are Factors That Contribute To Additional Heat Being Generated In The Room E.G. Strong Lighting, Overcrowding With People And Office Equipment, Conservatory Type Room, Or Flat Roofed Room.
High There Are Factors That Contribute To A High Heat Load In The Room. E.G. Commercial Cooking, Much Computer And Server Equipment, Switchgear, Temporary Building With Thin Walls And Flat Room, Plain Glass Conservatory.

This calculator is provided as a broad based indication of the energy cost of running a filter based air purification, and an indicative cost of running a Sanuvox system as an alternative. It should not be assumed to be absolutely accurate and should not be used as the basis of an actual system design or forecast of cost saving of an actual system. We accept no liability for consequences of the inappropriate use of this calculator, or its results. Actual figures would depend on the proposed system for a particular application and on the exact parameters of that application.
