Air Turnover Systems
Unique floor mounted heating and cooling units.


The Air Turnover principle eliminates air stratification in large open space buildings. It does this by recirculating the hot air which becomes trapped at the higher levels. The uniform room temperature improves comfort, conserves energy, eliminates thermal barriers, and eliminates the possibility of condensation forming on stored materials.
The Air Turnover Concept

In a building with high ceilings, such as a warehouse or manufacturing facility, thermal barriers are established as warm air rises and gets trapped at the ceiling. The result, known as "air stratification," creates layers of temperature in the space.

The temperature at the ceiling may be 25 degrees hotter than at the floor, and the heat trapped at the higher level is unusable. Since the desired building temperature must be maintained at a low level, the inevitable result is excessive heating bills.

Air stratification also creates problems in spaces that require cooling. Because cool air settles to the floor, higher levels remain too warm. When the temperature is not uniform from floor to ceiling, condensation can form causing moisture damage.

An Air Turnover system solves the air stratification problem by continuously circulating the air in the space. It picks up air at the floor, removing the coldest air layer supporting the thermal barrier. The air is heated or cooled, and returned quietly through a screened discharge plenum to create a uniform temperature and a comfortable, more cost-effective conditioned space.

Air Turnover Heating Systems

Air Turnover systems are unique heating units designed for installation at floor level directly in the conditioned space of warehouses, manufacturing areas, shipping/receiving areas, and other large rooms with high ceilings. An Air Turnover system works by continuously circulating large volumes of room air at low velocity. Quiet, energy-efficient propeller fans turn over the room air 1 to 3 times each hour, thoroughly mixing the air to maintain a uniform temperature from floor to ceiling without drafts. Fuel is conserved by "reclaiming" heat that otherwise would be trapped at the ceiling. Continuously circulating air helps quickly overcome the cold air effect from open doors in the shipping and receiving area after the doors are closed. Unlike most indirect fired systems which replace exhaust air with warmed outside air, an Air Turnover system generally uses little if any outside air. As a result, operating costs are very low.

Low Velocity Discharge
In heating mode, air is discharged directly at low velocity. No ductwork is required so installed cost is lower.
Burner
Power burner features direct spark ignition, on-off, high-low, and modulating controls.
Induced Draft
Direct Drive induced draft fan on DAT-P and DAT-F models helps provide gas heating efficiency of up to 80%.
 
Control Cabinet
Fuses and power transformer are provided for single point electrical connection.
Low Velocity Fans
DAT-P Systems use propeller fans.
