Before you can kick off even preliminary exploration for custom AHU design, here is a quick checklist of questions you will need answered.
Before You Get Started
- Project description (what will the AHUs be used for?)
- What are the budget priorities (low initial cost, durability, energy efficiency)?
- What is the timeline for delivery (is this a regular production schedule or an emergency build)?
- Unit placement (will the unit be housed inside the facility or outside?)
- Performance parameters (facility size, supply and return CFMs, external static pressures, and outside, supply and return temps)
- Design factors to be considered (are there any physical constraints affecting the AHU, its installation and maintenance?), i.e. dimensions, weight limits, site access, etc.
- Special materials considerations or industry-specific requirements to be considered
