Manufacturing
Architects, building owners and facility managers who work with large industrial buildings are under growing pressure to seek solutions which not only save energy and money, but also help achieve their green business goals. In response to this Airius destratification systems are being increasingly turned to as the most cost effective method to reduce HVAC costs and carbon emissions by an average of 35% (or more when used in facilities with process heat), whilst also ensuring comfortable conditions are maintained for staff in order to sustain productivity.
In winter months most industrial facilities are susceptible the cold, which reduces productivity, whilst in those buildings which are heated costs can increase significantly. As heating and/or cooling can account for over 50% of a buildings running costs in most cases, this represents a huge expense.
It is now recognised that stratification is the single largest waste of energy in buildings today and that destratification, which is recommended and endorsed by the Carbon Trust, is a low-cost, quick and simple means to reduce energy usage. By recycling and recirculating the heated or conditioned air in a building that has already been paid for, rather than letting it accumulate at the ceiling or escape through roof, windows or doors, workload is dramatically reduced on HVAC systems reducing wear and maintenance.
Regardless of a building’s design or HVAC system; whether it has high or low ceilings, poor insulation, frequently opening doors or windows, radiant or infrared heating, an Airius destratification system will optimise comfort and productivity, whilst reducing your costs significantly.
"The support and professional installation of our lighting system was excellent. We are delighted with the quality and the difference it has made to our office and warehouse giving us a better working condition. We would highly recommend these lights and Airius to give a quality of workmanship.” Molly Osman – Secretary
"May I thank you again for your professionalism in the way you completed the contract for installation of 126 DE Strat fans here in Prescot. Your dealings with us from first contact after we got project approval have been exemplary. We would be happy for you to use this testimonial for reference with your senior management & potential customers.” Phil Harris – Manufacturing Director Read in full
"The Airius Electrical Contractors team installed 76 De-stratification fans in one of our sites in Filton. They all conducted themselves impeccably and the installation was of high quality. We were very impressed with their safe systems of work.” Facilities Manager
“We installed Airius destratification fans in our distribution department. Prior to this, in winter the difference between temperatures at floor and roof level was approximately 5-6 degrees C. The difference now is approximately 1-2 degrees C and has resulted in a reduction of approximately 25% in our gas consumption.” Martin Kelly – Facilities Manager
“The units were simple and fast to install. Were delighted to find that the temperature difference between ground and roof had improved from around 5°C to just 0.5°C proving their effectiveness.” Andy Pryer – Quality Manager
“With all that heated air now being pushed back down, not only can the thermostat temperature be lowered considerably but the heater itself kicks in much less. Having burnt our way through 6,000 litres of oil in the first five weeks or so, the same heater assisted by just three Airius fans, on average now uses about 3,000 litres – for the whole year!” Roger Hewlett – Production Manager
“Since filing the Airius destratification system in our storage warehouse we have been able to maintain a constant and comfortable temperature for our staff, whilst also being able to switch one of our heaters off thus giving us a fantastic saving in heating costs!” Paul Stewart – Health, Safety & Environmental Manager
"The main benefits for us are vastly improved air circulation, balance of temperature throughout the buildings, low running costs, silent and stress free operation and of course a fantastic saving on our gas utility bill per annum. I would highly recommend Airius systems for all factory and warehouse environments.” Mark Northy – Managing Director Read in full
"We installed the Airius system into the can assembly plant at our manufacturing site and I am very pleased with the results so far. The full cost of the Airius units is recouped within a matter of months – first winter savings of £62,251 measured against a total Airius system spend of £21,268!” Paul Mattin – Engineering Manager Read in full
