Case study — 4

“Generally, temperatures have fallen slightly in what used to be hottest parts of the aisle and risen slightly in what used to be coldest parts of the aisle, consistent with the nearly perfectly even air distribution the FabricAir ducts provide. A modest overall temperature reduction was realized, with a before average temperature of 25.2°C [77.4°F], and an after average temperature of 24.8°C [76.6°F].” Explains Doug Green, President of GROK Energy Services Inc.

Veli Zengin, who is the manager of Kuralpan Mechanical Company said that: “FabricAir has helped our employees in every phase of the project from design to installation. We have satisfied our customers by offering an air distribution system that looks stylish and also made our job easier due to its installation advantages. Both we and our customer are satisfied with the results.”

Three systems were installed to distribute air-conditioned air evenly in the airport hall without creating excessive draughts. ‘D’ section ducts were used because the ducts had to be fixed directly to the underside of beams and suspended on an H-profile framework.

The result is an aesthetic, energy friendly solution with high levels of occupant comfort. The flexible duct design makes it easy to change the store layout and exhibition items as needed.

The fabric air ducts play into the overall context above the grid and even acts as an absorbent of sounds resonating in the space. The low pressure drop means significant energy savings.

“During all project stages, FabricAir staff have worked very efficiently, provided professional advice, and proved that our management made the right choice when they decided to use FabricAir air dispersion systems,” says plant manager Mr. Ramazan Evir.
