Exploring the Benefits of Displacement Ventilation in Schools

For years, studies have linked healthy environments in schools with improved educational outcomes for students. We’ve seen that indoor air quality has a major impact on health, performance and attendance and that quiet classrooms improve academic performance, reduce stress and encourage better behavior.

Renovated, Expanded Space Creates a Living Showroom

We are continually adding talented individuals to the Price team, and in 2018 it was clear that our office space at our headquarters in Winnipeg, MB, was bursting at the seams. Team members were sharing offices, working in hallways and competing for meeting room space. Plans for the expansion of the Golspie North production space were already underway, and it seemed like the perfect time to expand and renovate our offices.

What Is an Active Chilled Beam Cabinet?

Posted by Price Industries on June 7, 2022 at 9:29 AM

Combining the Benefits of Chilled Beams and Displacement Ventilation

Chilled beam systems use the heat transfer capabilities of water to provide sensible cooling to a space. As we’ve discussed previously on the blog, when the system is in cooling mode, the induction process facilitated by the chilled beam nozzles causes warmer room air to mix with the colder primary air, providing the space with supply air with temperatures at 62°F to 66°F – much warmer than the 55°F supply air provided by conventional cooling systems.
