Further Breezair order for CoSaf at Pataks Foods
Patak's Foods, now owned by AB Foods, have installed Breezair environmentally friendly Evaporative Coolers into its Bottling Hall.
Aware that Leicester based Airplants had already successfully supplied roof mounted and mobile Breezair units to the company's Coalbrookedale foundry, Engineering Service Manager, David Hodson, asked Airplants to carry out a site survey to ascertain whether the Breezair system would be suitable for the assembly area.
Airplants conducted an in depth review of the assembly area observing that the 840 square metre area has a 6-metre high apex roof where heat collected.
Heat then radiated down into the interior of the building causing the temperature of the entire space to rise.
At the same time people, equipment and machinery were also heating the enclosed air so that the temperatures within the building exceeded the ambient temperature of 21C by around 10C.
Airplants confirmed that the Breezair units would be the best possible method of improving overall thermal comfort for the workforce.
Having already dismissed air conditioning as inappropriate and prohibitively expensive, David Hodson agreed with Airplants suggestion that four Breezair Evaporative Cooling units should be installed on the roof strategically placed to provide spot cooling around the assembly area.
"Not only is Breezair far cheaper to install than other products", said David Hodson, it is also low maintenance, and environmentally friendly, which makes it an all round winner.
The workforce is absolutely delighted with their improved working conditions".
The only company to provide a full range of evaporative coolers for a cross section of industries and applications, Seeley International's RPX, EA, TBA, ICON and Mobile units are the most advanced evaporate cooling technology in the world.
The systems are economic to install, provide healthier working conditions and consume far less energy than conventional air-conditioning systems.
Far more versatile than standard cooling methods, Breezair is capable of providing sufficient cool air to overflow and prevent hot air entering a building.
As fresh air is continually drawn from outside, then passed over a saturated medium and washed, the potential for "sick building" syndrome from constantly circulating air is avoided.
The Breezair is suitable for both commercial and industrial applications in a spectrum of industries that include agriculture, horticulture, manufacturing, catering and hotels, and public and residential buildings.
Manufactured to the highest standards, the Breezair is backed by Seeley International's 30 years of experience in climate control and the company's commitment to excellence in customer service.
