VRV Heat Recovery air curtain

Retailers are being given new opportunities to improve shop floor environments, reduce emissions and save money with the launch of a new air curtain solution connected to the Daikin VRV system. In conjunction with Biddle, Daikin have introduced the first VRVIII heat recovery air curtain to the market, coupling the benefits of the Biddle patented rectifier and constant air velocity (CA2V) air curtain technologies with the benefits of Daikin VRVIII with heat recovery. The first-of-a-kind product is unique in the UK as it is the only solution that removes heat from the shop floor then uses the same heat for over-door heating, achieving high levels of energy efficiency. Leading retailers who have tested the air curtain solution report estimated cost savings of £1,500 per annum in saved energy and a reduction in CO2 output of over 6 tonnes, when compared to a typical electric air curtain. In addition to the environmental benefits, in one example, the VRV air curtain has a payback period within three years.
