RTFANS Case Studies

Case Studies

Evidence-led ventilation and cooling projects from the legacy RTFANS site.

These materials are organised to help facility owners, engineers, and purchasing teams compare the right airflow approach before requesting equipment or a project review. Check the application, operating conditions, installation constraints, and maintenance requirements described in each item, then use the linked detail page for the supporting facts and next steps.

Good airflow planning starts with the space and the work taking place inside it. Note the clear height, roof structure, doors, racking, machinery, occupied zones, heat sources, humidity target, existing HVAC, exhaust, electrical supply, and access for cleaning or service. General circulation can improve mixing and perceived comfort, but it does not replace outdoor-air ventilation, filtration, local exhaust, or source capture where those functions are required. The pages below provide practical questions and equipment context so a project team can define a safe, maintainable scope and identify the information needed for final sizing.
