Ventilation is one of the most important architectural requirements that must be considered in architectural design within buildings and facilities, especially for spaces with humidity due to the lack of natural air or limited natural air intake, or internal spaces that do not receive natural ventilation, or tall and compact buildings.

Ventilation works!

This process is carried out using fans (Fans) in various cases, including:

1. Normal ventilation work
This is a process of removing unwanted air and sometimes pushing fresh air in its place, depending on the requirements and nature of use.

2. Emergency ventilation work
The most famous cases are fire situations (God forbid), where smoke is extracted using special exhaust fans (capable of withstanding high temperatures) connected to the fire system.

Also, in cases of stairwell pressure (escape stairs), this process takes place in high-rise buildings, and the supplied air increases the pressure in the stairwell to prevent any smoke from entering during a fire, allowing people to exit the building. All of this is designed according to international specifications and codes, most notably the Fire Protection Code (NFPA).

The purpose of the ventilation process!

The purpose of the ventilation process must be determined based on the nature of the place and its requirements, including air renewal, the percentage of air to be renewed or replaced, its uses, and its sources

Renewing the air, the percentage of air that needs to be renewed or replaced, its uses, and its sources.

Determining the amount of air and its specifications.

Determining the ventilation system, whether it will be centralized, relying on a fan and air duct network, or decentralized, where each space operates independently from others.

Determining the type of fans to be used, ensuring they suit the purpose and location, specifying their capacities, and deciding where they should be installed, while considering accessibility for cleaning and maintenance personnel later, and ensuring they do not cause disturbance to those in or around the area.

Ventilation works are divided into :

• Pumping air from the outside to the inside (Fresh Air)
• Pulling air from the inside to the outside (Exhaust)
• Pumping fresh air (Fresh Air) and extracting exhaust air (Exhaust) at the same time in some places.

Due to the importance of supplying those spaces with fresh, healthy air and renewing the air inside them!!

At Boroda for Air Conditioning, we work on providing all ventilation solutions of various types for different places according to their nature.

• Places with heat and steam, such as (restaurants, home kitchens, and others).
• Places with humidity and lack of oxygen, such as (swimming pools, garages, warehouses, gyms, and others).
• Places with heat generated by equipment, such as (factories, workshops, and others).
• Places with unpleasant odors and polluted air, such as (hospitals, bathrooms, and others).
• Crowded places that require both air extraction and fresh air intake at the same time, such as (halls, shopping malls, and others).

Types of ventilation systems!

• roof-mounted fans are installed outside the building on the top surface, and they are used in both cases to supply fresh air or exhaust air. However, when supplying air from the outside, they are equipped with filters for air purification.
• inline fans are installed inside the building above the false ceiling, and they operate in both cases of exhausting air or supplying air from the outside.
• cassette fan is installed in the false ceiling as if it were part of it.
• a wall-mounted fan is installed on an opening in the wall, facade, or a glass window overlooking the street or an atrium.
