Door Air Curtain - The great saver of energy

in oxfordhomeware •  4 years ago 

For a major reason, most commercial, industrial and residential establishments currently use a door air curtain - reducing their monthly electricity consumption. Such relief in the payment of electricity bills to those who have used it has been remarkably proven by this piece of equipment.

If you don't quite understand how energy saving occurs, let's have an overview of how it works first.

In the notion of directing and invisible stream of cooled or heated air downwards, this device, which is commonly placed at the entrance of most structures, functions. This same idea makes it very effective for the cooled or heated air within the room or building to be trapped.

A door air curtain, which can be used as a cooler or a heater, works hand in hand with an air conditioner. Once a place is cooled or heated, this piece of technology keeps the internal air inside, while the external air is prevented from coming in. It therefore reduces the energy that an air conditioner has to use when cooled or heated air is expelled. In addition, it reduces the transfer of heat between two spaces, particularly spaces that are being cooled and cannot be separated by a real door.

As more and more establishment owners have seen this device's energy-saving quality, air curtain manufacturers have mass-produced it in various sizes. There are sizes that will suffice for the cooling or heating needs of a small room or a spacious warehouse.

Designed to provide a steady gush of cooled or heated air, they are very valuable during cold and warm months of the year. During winter, they help lighten the load of heating systems. They trim the loss of heated air which flow out of open entrances. Come summer time, as they avoid the loss of cool air, they reduce the intensive use of air coolers. Moreover, they act as a repellant against dirt, dust and fumes that affect air conditioning - cooling or heating - in a certain location.

In relation to this, an invisible wall of air is created by the high technology that air curtains possess. This air wall serves as a barrier, even with the absence of a door, dividing two environments of different temperatures. Therefore, air from outside that may contain the pollutants mentioned above is blocked and the air inside a place remains clean and intact. Sounds like an air purifier's function, too, right?

It also functions as an air knife, in addition to being an air purifier. For any spot cooling requirements, this is perfect. Instead of using additional equipment for these pieces, an air curtain can do this alone. Again, it saves a great deal of energy and money.

Oxfordhomeware door curtains also saves time in addition to saving energy - time spent fighting the various flying insects that may infest any location. As the air wall air curtains produce will force their exit, you no longer have to worry about the heath hazards that you might catch from these filthy creatures.

Door or Curtain Shower?

People have gates for their shower stalls in many older homes. Some individuals prefer to have curtains because they can change them whenever they want and they are relatively inexpensive to replace if they break. One downside to a curtain is that they can mold and it is extremely difficult to impossible to get off when mold grows on material like that. You can throw it as many times as you wish in the washing machine, but those stains are most likely not going to come off. They can break through a shower door, but they can be cleaned much easier than a curtain. Fortunately for us, there are specialists in the repair of shower doors.

Doors on a stall can get very dirty very quickly due to the fact that someone usually bathes every day and the soap scum and water that hit it build up mildew. Some individuals just clean their bathrooms once in a while and they get very gross. If you were to try to clean your bathroom once a week, less mold would build up and you wouldn't have to spend as much cleaning time as you normally do. Once a bathroom gets very dirty, it is difficult to clean it completely. You can avoid this issue by wiping everything down more often.

If a door is really old, you can always use it as an excuse to remodel your bathroom or get a new door if it becomes more and more difficult to clean. Some doors can be very nice, but there may be mold damage that will not go away if it is an older house. You will have to go with a curtain if you want to get a bathtub that is not linked to the walls, because it is difficult to attach a door to something like that. You may not have to replace the whole thing, but use that as an opportunity to change things a little bit if you do. Switch to a colorful curtain or buy a new door.

Many people purchase a shower curtain and then design their bathroom based on that. You can buy one that is neutral such as a black or tan one and buy a toothbrush holder, soap dispenser, and towels that go along with the neutral theme or you could buy a bright colorful one and buy different bright colored bathroom items. The fun thing about designing bathrooms is that it doesn't matter what you do and buying small items doesn't cost a lot of money. The bigger items, such as a new bathtub, are the more costly items.

There are a couple of things you can do when something like a door on a shower breaks. You can call someone to fix it, which may take just a couple of pieces, or you may need to replace the whole thing. You could also just change it and replace it with something a little easier, such as a curtain.
