FAN COILS
and hospitality venues, where excessive background noise can affect occupant comfort, productivity and the overall customer experience. The next generation of fan coil units has been engineered
to overcome this challenge, delivering extremely low sound levels in exposed ceiling applications, helping ensure occupant comfort.
This means acoustic performance must be considered
from the outset rather than addressed through additional attenuation later in a project. This challenge is to deliver effective cooling while maintaining low sound levels, making quiet operation an increasingly important part of fan coil selection. As exposed ceiling applications are an architectural design
trend, it is vital that fan coil units not only perform effectively, but they look good too. That is why the latest fan coils have been designed to be as unobtrusive as possible with the complete integration of all core components within the body of the fan coil unit. These units are supplied in galvanised steel and can also be powder-coat finished in a customer-specified RAL colour to suit interiors.
Whole-life value When choosing energy-efficient fan coil units, AC contractors should consider units that incorporate proven EC/DC motor and fan technology alongside a high-efficiency heat exchanger
designed to achieve optimum heating and cooling performance using industry-standard hot and chilled water temperatures as well as a low Specific Fan Power. However, although energy efficiency continues to shape commercial air conditioning projects, the focus has broadened beyond operational performance alone. AC contractors are increasingly considering installation efficiency, embodied carbon, maintenance requirements and whole-life value when selecting HVAC equipment. This makes the latest generation of energy-efficient fan coil units attractive since they reduce the number of components required on site, can simplify logistics, shorten installation times, and minimise coordination with other trades, while also reducing material use. Ease of maintenance is equally important. Equipment that can be accessed, cleaned and serviced quickly helps reduce disruption throughout the life of the building, while systems designed for future adaptation can support refurbishment projects and changing occupier requirements. Reconfigurable and sustainable, the latest fan coil units are ideal for buildings where a change of use is anticipated. Core components can be reconfigured, relocated, or reused. As more commercial projects adopt exposed services, AC
contractors will increasingly be expected to deliver systems that combine efficient cooling with fast installation, low-noise operation and high levels of occupant comfort.
"By
harnessing the Coandă effect, conditioned air remains close to the ceiling surface before gradually mixing into the room."
