Application examples - of textile diffusers

PRODUCT INFORMATION - APPLICATION EXAMPLES


Variability of used textiles and their special treatment enables use of textile air distribution systems (textile diffuser, fabric duct, fabric ducting) in majority of rooms, where it is necessary cooling, heating, humidification and filtration of air and distribute it using fans. The following paragraphs describe only typical installations, other applications will be considered specially.

Food processing industry
	Historically first textile air distribution systems were used in food processing industry. Sanitary regulations require that all food processing devices must be easily and perfectly cleanable. Out of all the air distribution system options, this condition is only met by textile diffusers. After washing they are perfectly clean, and if disinfection is added, also those germs that would resist the antibacterial treatment, are killed. Fabrics made of endless fibres, developed specially for the Prihoda's textile diffusers, are very flat and thus do not allow sedimentation of impurities. This is what makes them different from the diffusers made of staple fibres that successively fill with dust and can represent a sanitary risk.

Food stores, low-temperature worksites
		In large stores, textile air distribution systems provide uniform air distribution, thus ensuring maintenance of stable temperatures. This is usually the essential requirement for storage of foodstuffs. If people have to work in an environment with low temperature, then they are usually very sensitive to draughts. Inconvenient air distribution might cause higher sickness rate. Textile diffusers disperse air without causing draughts, and create acceptable climate.

Chemical, textile and electrotechnic industry
		Textile air distribution systems are a perfect solution for any industrial branch. They provide uniform (draughtless) air distribution at unbeatably low costs, or enable air directing according to the request of the end user. More than 60 suspension variants bring a possibility of choosing a convenient solution for any situation, taking in consideration the construction of ceiling and other installations in the particular plant. In a contaminated environment, fabrics with larger holes need to be used (perforation, no microperforation).

Supermarkets and gathering areas
		To mainly high halls we can offer an air distribution system through a row of larger holes or textile nozzles, as the case may be. In any case, accurate air directing and distribution as the customers wish will be possible. Experience from practice confirm that a textile air distribution in a supermarket is a substantially better (more uniform) air distribution system than the traditional systems. In addition, the costs on this are lower. A matter of course is the possibility of various colour versions or different distribution for various zones. For instance, for the cooled and heated section of the supermarket. Fire resistance of our fabrics conforms to the requirements of European standards.

Pools, sports halls and fitness centres
		Installations at various sport yards are very typical for textile air distribution systems. For large sports halls is available a wide choice of directed distribution possibilities. On the contrary, cooling air dispersion at minimum speed will not be perceived negatively by fitness centre customers. There are often low rooms where air distribution is always difficult. Semicircular textile diffusers on ceiling are the best solution in terms of both price and function. Specific environment of swimming pools is almost predetermined for installation of textile diffusers. The fabrics used, including installation material, are fully resistant to damp environment. Combination of different colours revives interior.

Kitchens
		Space in kitchens is usually narrow, and their extreme load with heat and vapours calls up the need of extremely intense ventilation. Textile diffuser disperses air uniformly, without creation of draught. Any directing of airflows is usually totally useless. The material used is resistant to vapours and its maintenance is (also thanks to small dimensions and low weight) very easy. Comparing the prices of stainless ceiling, the costs of our solution are much lower! Use of non-textile distributions systems opposes the requirement on easy and perfect cleaning that is necessary for sanitary reasons.

Offices, night clubs, cinemas, etc.
		Higher aesthetical demands can be satisfied by colourful and shape variability of textile air distribution systems. Correctly manufactured and perfectly installed semicircular textile diffusers become an elegant part of interior. In terms of function, air dispersion from those ceiling semi-cylinders equals to cooling ceilings or beams. Comparing to those solutions, the price difference is huge even in case of best equipped textile diffusers. Unlike the traditional diffusers, embedded in soffits, our solution does not cause any local heat discomfort. Experiences prove significantly higher satisfaction of workers in uniformly cooled offices.

Temporary installations
		The convenience of using textile air distribution systems for cooling or heating of large-volume tents or other temporary structures is clearly apparent. Light construction of ceilings can carry textile diffusers weighing from 100 to 400 g/m2 without any problems. Assembly is very fast, usually by means of bearing ropes and hooks sewn on the diffusers. Top quality material allows multiple repeated use. Cooling (heating) by means of a single larger source with connected textile air distribution system is much more economic than just cold (heat) blowing to the space. In case of heating without air distribution system the flow is bent upwards and the zone under the ceiling gets overheated which results in enormous heat loss. In cooling, intense airflow causes local undercooling and draughts; on the other hand, insufficiently cooled zones are created elsewhere. Both cases are successfully solved by a rightly designed textile air distribution system.
