High IAQ strengthens sports experiences

The strength of a great workout or sporting venue is a stylish and draft-free environment. A safe and healthy indoor climate is created and maintained with the appropriate fabric, while adding a dash of style.

Even air distribution

Distributes air evenly throughout the facility

Hygienic operation

Antimicrobial fabrics eliminate the health risks

Corrosion-resistant

Fabric does not rust, thus eliminating the risk of corrosion

Aesthetic solution

A variety of duct profiles and standard colors and custom printing compliment any setting

Impact resistant

Ducts are flexible and can maintain their shape even after accidental bumps

VarioDuct

The FabricAir® VarioDuct™ provides different flow models for cooling and/or heating purposes. It is tailored with an internal membrane that separates the two airflows.

Ceiling Diffusers

FabricAir® Ceiling Diffusers are fully insulated, they prevent energy loss, eliminate any risk of condensation and are therefore suitable for isothermal or cooling conditions, and can be deployed for supply and extract air.

FAQ

People exercising generate significant heat and moisture and can be particularly sensitive to concentrated cold air. The HVAC system should therefore remove excess heat and humidity while avoiding strong drafts around active users.

Canyon Escalade needed to maintain comfortable conditions from the bottom to the top of a tall indoor climbing wall. OriFlow was used to distribute cool air along the height of the wall and reduce the heat buildup that had previously occurred near the ceiling.

Antimicrobial fabric can be specified where additional resistance to microbial growth on the duct surface is required. It should be considered as one part of the facility’s overall hygiene strategy rather than a replacement for ventilation, filtration, or regular cleaning.

Balls, exercise equipment, and other activities can occasionally come into contact with exposed building services. Flexible textile ducting can absorb minor impacts without the permanent dents associated with rigid metal surfaces.
