Air Curtains
Hold the Climate. Keep the Door Open.
An air curtain drives a controlled stream of air across an open doorway, so the door can stay open for traffic while the heat, cold, dust and insects stay out.
- Cuts heating and cooling loss at open doors
- Keeps dust, fumes and insects out of clean areas
- Sized to the opening, mounted horizontally or vertically
- Ontario gas rebates may apply on qualifying units

Where They Work
Where Does an Air Curtain Earn Its Keep?
Any opening that stays open and lets conditioned air out is a candidate. The busier the door and the harder the climate, the faster an air curtain pays back.
Loading Dock Doors
Dock doors and drive-in doors that stand open through loading, holding heat in and fumes, dust and weather out while forklifts keep moving.
Service and Warehouse Doors
Interior and exterior openings in plants and warehouses, separating zones and cutting the draft without slowing traffic.
Cold Storage and Food
Cooler and freezer openings and food-grade areas, where temperature separation and hygiene both matter.
Entrances and Service Bays
Pedestrian entrances, service bays and vehicle openings that open and close all day, kept comfortable and clean.
