Our customer wanted to develop upon the comfortable conditions of their building and asked us to create a solution.
Due to the successful first phase of the 3 existing Air Barikade units, our customer asked us to expand the protected zone, providing additional heat further down in the same area.
Following a detailed survey of the site, we formulated a solution to not only efficiently divide the internal and external conditions but allow the establishment to continue running as usual.
As we were operating during daytime, when the airport is busiest, we began by raising partition walls to restrict our area of operation. This minimised pedestrian disruption and reduced the risk of external and environmental factors affecting the rest of the airport. After thoroughly preparing and assessing the area, we started the installation.
We supplied and installed two of our Air Barikade 96 units above the new check-in entrances within the establishment as part of the refurbishment in progress. The units were secured to existing overhead steelwork, utilising beam clamps, and then suspended with threaded rods. To maintain a suitable minimum temperature and prevent unecessary energy consumption, we set the temperature to 16°C prior to the heater being switched on. Finally, we mounted the controllers in front of the partition for easier access.
Our Air Barikade 96s are controlled by photocells and reflectors, therefore they are activated based on the door opening. As a result of the independent thermostatic control, the heating system only functions when necessary.
The installation of the two Air BariKade 96 units has been successfully completed, aligning with all operational specifications. The units now function seamlessly alongside the existing ones, ensuring consistent and efficient supplementary heating at the newly refurbished check-in entrances.
