High velocity air conditioning
A cooling option that respects your building structure
 |
With high-velocity air-conditioning, you don't have to tear apart a structure to install ductwork or put up with noisy window units to stay cool during the hot summer. Though somewhat more expensive than ductless air-conditioning, a high-velocity system can provide air-conditioning to an entire home or business. |
These quiet systems distribute high-velocity cooled air through small insulated, flexible tubes that can be installed in closets, between wall studs or ceiling joists, and around obstructions to reach every room without major remodeling. The tubing system connects to a compact, quiet compressor that can be fitted in an attic, basement, or crawl space.
High-velocity air-conditioning works on the principle of aspiration where hot and cold streams of cooled air enter a room, creating gentle circulation without drafts. Temperatures stay even from floor to ceiling. Another advantage is that these systems can remove up to 30 percent more moisture from the air than conventional central air-conditioning systems so you feel comfortable at higher temperature settings, which can help reduce your cooling costs.
