It is sometimes difficult to take the time between two work locations to stay informed. We will arrange that for you. Here you will find the latest important information for the world of energy, ventilation and construction.

How do Ubbink ductwork systems achieve class D/ATC2 air-tightness when installed? Ventilation

How do Ubbink ductwork systems achieve class D/ATC2 air-tightness when installed?

Ubbink ductwork systems achieve class D/ATC2 air-tightness when installed by using purposed-designed mechanical connections, which are easy, quick and safe to install without ‘screwing and gluing’ and/or using adhesive tape.

How do airtight ductwork systems like Ubbink’s Aerfoam and Air Excellent minimise fan energy use? Ventilation

How do airtight ductwork systems like Ubbink’s Aerfoam and Air Excellent minimise fan energy use?

The fan power of a mechanical ventilation unit scales with the flowrate multiplied by the pressure at the fan, which means that 1. the higher the flow rate, the more power is needed and 2. the higher the pressure loss, the more power is needed.

How do airtight ductwork systems like Ubbink’s Aerfoam and Air Excellent minimise sound production? Ventilation

How do airtight ductwork systems like Ubbink’s Aerfoam and Air Excellent minimise sound production?

Fan power and pressure loss increases as the flow rate of a mechanical ventilation unit increases, even when it is increased to overcome leakage in the ductwork system to maintain the hygienic flowrate in the rooms.
