The Science of ComfortTM
As HVAC professionals, one of our primary goals is to promote healthy indoor air quality in all spaces, and there are fewer applications where this is more important than in classrooms. It is estimated that approximately half of public school districts need to update or replace the HVAC systems in their schools.1

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.

Chances are you are familiar with the term “room temperature.” We all have experienced work environments that are too hot, too cold or too muggy. Perhaps it is a conference room that always runs cold or a classroom that feels too stuffy. Typical occupants do not need to know why the room is uncomfortable; they just want it fixed – and fixed quickly!

Labs use significant amounts of energy due to their makeup air requirements driven by the air changes needed to protect lab personnel from exposure to airborne hazards. There is currently a big push in the industry to improve energy efficiency and decarbonize lab facilities. One way to do this is to scrutinize air change rate requirements by relying less on established rules of thumb and more on analysis based on the unique needs of the facility.

In the world of HVAC, an airflow transducer is a device that converts an airflow signal into an electronic signal for a VAV controller to regulate a damper and provide airflow to a space.
