4 Ways These Air Handlers Can Boost Efficiency and Save Money

If you are looking for a piece of HVAC equipment that will improve indoor air quality and provide comfort for your building occupants, while still saving you money with a reduced footprint and boosted efficiency, look no further. We know that every building is different, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be able to get what you need! Daikin Applied’s Vision® and Skyline® Semi-custom Air Handlers have flexible design solutions to meet your requirements for any building. Daikin says, “If you can dream it, we can build it.” The possibilities are endless with these two air handlers, meaning you can get exactly what your building needs, and save money in the process.

Here are 4 ways that the Daikin Applied Vision Air Handler and the Skyline Air Handler can boost efficiency and save money:

1. These air handlers can boost efficiency with energy recovery solutions.
   • Energy recovery options condition and transfer heat and moisture energies between exhaust and ventilation air streams in order to match the outdoor air to the indoor space requirements.
     • The transfer reduces the cost of heating or cooling outside air.
     • This recovers 70% of lost energies, leading to an increase in operating efficiency. 
   • The energy recovery solutions can include the energy recovery wheel or the fixed plate configuration.
     • They are available in 100% outdoor air or economizer configurations with exhaust fans.
   
2. ECM fans offer a wide variety of benefits to these air handlers, including smooth operations and reliable comfort.

• • ECMs connect directly to their impellers, eliminating almost three feet of cabinet space, freeing up valuable square footage.
  • The ECM fans are very low-maintenance due to their technologically advanced design, saving money over time with its extended lifecycle.
  • The ECM fans work with the inverter to operate more efficiently at part load conditions, leading to improved energy savings.

3. Save more with the UltraSeal™ low leakage dampers. 

1. • With the UltraSeal, maximize operating efficiency due to the tight seals that aid with proper drainage.
   • The tight seals lead to reducing operating costs.
   • The air handler can also have optional damper hoods with screens that will direct rain, snow and debris away from openings.

4. The patented gasketed frame channels & R-13 foam-injected panels minimize direct exposure of metal-to-metal contact between framework to minimize air leakage.

• • This reduces cold bridging and condensate collection, lowering operating costs.

The Vision and Skyline Air Handlers are two quality pieces of equipment that will be designed specifically for your needs for any building or project. Comfort and quality are key, but boosting efficiency and saving money is a big bonus!
