Determining the Right Amount of Airflow for a Space

At Price, we pride ourselves on being industry leaders in room air distribution. Our manufactured products are designed around a common goal: to keep the room air clean, dry and comfortable. This is often accomplished by blowing a jet of conditioned, fresh air through a grille, register or diffuser (GRD) throughout a room to properly ventilate it.

What Is the Difference Between Conventional and Condensing Boilers?

Posted by Price Industries on September 3, 2024 at 9:15 AM

Optimizing Building Efficiency and Thermal Comfort

Commercial boilers generate heat through the combustion of fuel and the transfer of thermal energy to water. The heated water is then distributed throughout a commercial building for use in HVAC, processing, manufacturing and other applications. In North America, natural gas is the most common fuel type for commercial boiler systems, and the hot water they produce is frequently used for radiant or forced-air space heating.
