Avoiding condensation on ceiling in cold rooms in food processing industry
 
Since the inception of conventional air distribution systems in cold rooms, facility managers and owners have been plagued with unwanted and unhygienic condensation forming on the ceiling of cold spaces, typically below 45ºF. This has been caused due to the fact that a slightly warmer zone develops immediately under the ceiling. This is where condensation forms.

As the condensation increases over time it will naturally drip onto surfaces below and convey bacteria onto open stored food products. This is extremely hazardous in any food processing or hygienic facility.

After further research into this problem and subsequent product development we now market the “anti-condensation” FabricAir® Duct unit for such application. The duct is fitted with high yielding thermoplastic directional nozzles, positioned such that they continually sweep the ceiling with cold dehumidified air, effectively removing any condensation while at the same time the ducts delivers gentle air to the occupants below. The nozzles are designed with an “engineered throat” ensuring high throws at low static pressure.

This technique has also found use in spot cooling and heating and general ventilation where long directional throws are required.
