ABV With Life Safety

Key Features

The Solution

TRADITIONAL BALANCING

Traditional Balancing can’t respond to system changes
Too much ventilation = wasted energy
Too little ventilation = bad air quality

STACK EFFECT

As heat rises in buildings during winter months the ventilation rates can more than double from “Stack Effect”
The excess air forces the fans to freewheel
Stale air from lower floors can contaminate upper floors
Result: Bad Air Quality & Wasted Energy

"AUTO" BALANCING

Use of the ABV creates an “auto balancing” system
An auto balanced system assures correct ventilation rates regardless of system changes
Autobalancing = less energy $ and better IAQ
