BEST technology is an advanced aero-acoustical technology with extensive benefits for Educational institutions. When combined with air distribution systems results in ultimate quiet operation of an NC-35 in the space and ultimate control of air delivery at the highest energy efficiency in reduced compact floor space. The technology improves fluid flow, controls turbulence and reduces HP. The aero-acoustical fan conical discharge minimizes fluid flow separation eliminating system impact losses.
- BEST provides the most efficient, quietest, most vibration free and extended life HVAC systems.
- Space saving technology stretches valuable real estate in penthouses, mechanical rooms and roofs.
- Models are available that minimize maintenance requirements for greatly enhanced facility uptime.
- Maximized energy efficiency for LEED credits and Energy Star buildings.
