Architect• Reduced unit footprint,as much as 33%, meansmore useable buildingspace for other needs
• Reduced weight mayreduce structural costs
• Wider range of airhandler aspect ratiosenhances building designflexibility
• Reduced sound levelsmay eliminate expensiveattenuation treatmentsor devices
• Innovative technologyand energy savings canaid in LEED® buildingdesigns
• More usable space forthe project
Engineer• Reduced footprint, as
much as 33%—more access for othermechanical devices ormore space for otheruses
• Reduced weight maydecrease structuralrequirements andimprove seismic ratings
• Wider range of airhandler aspect ratiosprovides unmatcheddesign flexibility forindoor/outdoorapplications
• Unmatched systemefficiency and stabilityfor “off peak” designconditions in VAVapplications
• Lower sound levels ofteneliminate energy-robbingattenuation devices
• Lower connected HPmeans smaller electricalswitch gear and smallerstandby generator(s)
• Low-profile feature helpsin tight spaces and rooflines
• Innovative technologycan aid in LEED®
building designs
Owner• Lower total cost ofownership- Redundant fansmaximize uptime
- Reduced energy usagelowers life-cycle cost
- Direct drive—no beltor bearingmaintenance
- Small motors and fanwheels mean easiermaintenance
- Common replacementparts
- Uniform air tunnelmeans longer filter life
• Reduced unit footprintmeans more useablebuilding space for otherpurposes
• Lower sound levels• Retrofit applications—less expensive to installand improved systemefficiency- Easy to retrofit oldfans in hard-to-reachplaces
- FANWALL® cubes canfit through mosthallways, doorways, or elevators
- Improved systemperformance andenergy savingsenhances payback
ConstructionManager• Improved schedulingflexibility with fewersections to coordinate
• Shorter airsideinstallation schedule
• Reduced structuralrequirements mayreduce constructionschedule
• Less electrical switchgear to install andcoordinate
Contractor• Fewer sections: - Lower crane cost—fewer lifts
- Decreased labor costsfor rigging, assembling,and installing
- Improved staginglogistics with fewertrucks
- Lower storage costsdue to reduced airhandler footprint andless sections
- No fan-spring isolationrequired
• Ideal for fan retrofits- Expensive cranes orbuilding structuralmodifications nearlyeliminated
- Maximum 22” wheelsize and modular fancells ease handlingrequirements
- Fan cells fit throughmost hallways,doorways, or serviceelevators
- No fan re-balancerequired
- Vaneaxial systems areideal for FANWALLretrofit
