If you are looking for something that would substitute a physical barrier to intermingling of air then a door air curtain is the perfect solution. Installing a door is not a practical option in a lot of places where there is a constant passage of people and goods between working areas. It would involve repeated opening and closing of doors which is not only hectic for the workers but also doesn’t help the cause of door installation as the environment on either side of the door is not maintained. In such a case it is best to use an air curtain, also known as door air curtain or air door, which makes use of a controlled jet of air at the junction of two open spaces and creates an air seal. The best feature of an air curtain is the fact that it does not involve any physical barrier and thus makes for a transparent unobstructed opening.
Door air curtains are mainly of two types- the recirculating air curtain and the non-recirculating air curtain. The recirculating air curtains are less common and are mainly used in places which involve a high frequency of footfall and recirculates the air from one side to the air all the while maintaining a balanced environment on either side. The non-recirculating air curtain is more common and is much cheaper with less recurring costs.
The door air curtain has more than one function. It helps in energy savings through control of air transfer, energy savings due to shorter run times of air handler or compressor, maintenance of employee and customer comfort, ensures unhindered traffic flow and unobstructed visibility across threshold. Not only this, it also ensures an increased productivity due to stable temperatures, maintains a usable space around door, eliminates ice and fog in cold storage areas and also reduces flying insect infiltration.
