Read about the Research – and Meet the Researchers!
The last few years have seen an increased focus on indoor air quality. Occupants want to feel comfortable in commercial spaces, and building owners, architects and engineers want to know that they’re constructing and renovating facilities with products that work as intended. No gimmicks – just real, science-backed solutions.

A CFD Classroom Case Study
Obtaining efficient ventilation with overhead mixing systems for applications in heating climates can be a challenge. Not only does the positive buoyancy of the supply air work against the air distribution system, but most overhead mixing systems are designed with low supply air volumes (relative to cooling) and high supply air temperatures (more than 15°F above room temperature).
