What is an air curtain & What are the benefits of air curtains?

If you’ve ever walked through entrance doors, whether in a hotel, shopping mall, convenience store, or even a hospital, and felt like you were passing through a wall of air, that’s an air curtain. An air curtain is created by blowing air downwards in a vertical direction using a device equipped with fans inside. Let’s delve deeper into understanding air curtains in this article.

What is an air curtain?

An air curtain is a device installed above an entrance door, which creates an invisible barrier of air above the door. This allows people to walk through while a fan inside the device blows air downwards, effectively separating the indoor and outdoor environments. The air curtain prevents indoor air from flowing out and outdoor air from flowing in, thus helping to save energy. Additionally, the air curtain helps to keep out dust, exhaust fumes, unpleasant odors, and insects.

Advantages and Benefits of Air Curtains

• Maintain internal coolness by preventing it from flowing outside.
• Keep indoor air fresh at all times.
• Prevent dust and smoke from entering the interior.
• Prevent insects from sneaking inside.
• Save energy consumption.

Examples of Installation and Non-Installation of Air Curtains

When comparing the two, it is evident that installing an air curtain helps prevent hot air from outside from entering the building when the door is opened, maintaining a stable indoor temperature. In contrast, without an air curtain, opening the building door allows more hot air to enter, causing a change in the indoor temperature and making the air compressor work to lower the temperature (leading to energy consumption).

Considerations for Choosing the Most Effective Air Curtain

• The height, width, and structure of the entrance/exit doors
• The design, shape, size, and quietness of the air curtain unit
• The surrounding environmental conditions, including temperature, humidity, ambient air, and wind force
• The pressure difference between the inside and outside of the building

Which Air Curtain Brand to Choose?

Selecting an air curtain depends on various factors, such as product features, after-sales service, and the specific needs of the installation site. Today, we recommend the MAXCOOL air curtain. This series offers options for both commercial and industrial use, with the following details.

An air curtain is a device that helps prevent indoor air from escaping outside in order to maintain the internal temperature. It also helps save energy and prevents exhaust fumes, dust, pollution, insects, and dirt from entering indoors. When choosing an air curtain, it is important to consider the installation point, which is usually at the entrance or exit doors, and the size of the air curtain unit. The units come in various widths to accommodate different uses, ranging from 90 to 150 centimeters, and they have maximum air flow efficiency ranging from 2.5 to 4 meters. We should select the air flow to correspond with the installation height for optimal efficiency.
