air conditioning

A more hygienic alternative

For a more hygienic alternative to air conditioning systems hidden within ceiling voids, exposed chill beams of- fer a great solution. Bad ventilation is often the source of soiled ceilings and the best way of minimising this is with regular maintenance. The Euro- pean Standard for suspended ceilings, EN 13964, requires that makers of systems state whether or not the visi-

ble parts of ceiling systems are clean- able and how they can be cleaned. Carl Gipson, Sales Director at Waterloo commented, “The energy efficiency properties of chilled beams are well proven but the hygienic aspects are often overlooked.”

Welcome break choose JS Air Curtains

JS Air Curtains has supplied eight air curtains to the Welcome Break motorway services at Membury on the M4. The air curtains were in- stalled by Russell Air Conditioning. Five two meter Windbox air cur- tains and three HeatScreen air curtains are positioned at the front entrance, rear entrance and on some internal doorways. In total the air curtains are capable of providing over 21,000m3

/h of airflow to seal

the doorways. As well as keeping the heat in during the winter, they can also be used with the heaters off in the summer to prevent air-condi- tioned air from escaping. The

Windbox air curtain has a powerful output and can be used on door- ways up to 3.5m high. It can be horizontally mounted above a door- way or vertically to the side. The units supplied to Welcome Break were white but the Windbox is available in any RAL colour to suit interior architecture. The other model used at Welcome Break was the HeatScreen air curtain. This is an economical air curtain with a maximum output of 1,670m3

/h.

The consequences incurred when refrigeration and air conditioning systems break down can be disas- trous for any company or individual, making periodic service and maintenance vital. Issues can arise with any refrigeration equip- ment that is not properly maintained; from faulty operation to parts failures, these problems can cause unscheduled equipment breakdowns often-necessitating extensive repair work. If air condi- tioning equipment is not maintained and cleaned, dirt and bacteria can build up and is circu- lated, contaminating the surrounding environment. These problems can all be regulated and controlled with comprehensive service and maintenance. Whilst it is crucial to provide agreeable sur- roundings for employees and customers, it is equally as impor- tant to ensure adherence to industry rules and regulations. All refrigeration systems contain- ing fluorinated gases must be by law and in accordance with the Eu- ropean Union’s F-gas Regulation, No 842/2006, must be checked on a regular basis, how often depends on size; Systems containing 30kg or more refrigerant requires a

twice-yearly check, whilst systems containing between three and 30kg need to be checked annually.
