When discussing buildings performance in terms of reducing the energy consumption when operating on large warehouse, or open spaces, keeping a constant temperature true out the all space can be challenging for most parts. The use of energy sources to keep a constant and equal temperature can relate in a lot of wasted energy resulting in high utility costs. So now we can ask, why it’s so hard to keep room temperature consistent on large open spaces, like warehouses. And one concept comes to mind, stratification, which results in dramatic temperature differences from the floor to the ceiling and from one side to another. This its cause by the hot air rising in to the ceiling, which happens because the hot air it’s lighter than the cold air, as a result, on large spaces, HVAC units are constantly trying to keep up to maintain room temperature as even as possible, also the units will consume more energy as a result of it and wasted energy will be store in the unused upper space or ceiling.


Large temperatures differences can be found, based on how large the warehouse height/space is.  You can see temperature differences rounding 10F.


One of the ways for a building to retain the energy and not lose it, it’s by the installation of efficient destratification fan systems. This systems will complement the HVAC system and can also reduce the use of them, as they will provide a way to move the air so that the temperature can be equal in all the spaces of a warehouse or open space, a System like VTS Volcano can even help to remove old fashion HVAC Systems and ductwork, that are high maintains items.


The Volcano unit heater, is capable of moving the air across the entire space, by thus providing an equal amount of temperature across the board. They can be used on ventilation mode, thus supporting any other heating or cooling HVAC system, or with hot water, thus creating a heat source and moving that hot air around in to all corners of the working space.


We also have a cost efficient solution, Volcano Destratifier, this it’s the best solution when the space its already equipped with a different heat source and the air just needs to be pushed down


The option of adding up to 8 units under one control gives the flexibility to be always getting the best performance from our VTS units.
