Industrial Ventilation Systems

General ventilation controls heat, odors, and hazardous chemical contaminants that could affect health and safety of the workers, as well as the proper and efficient execution of the production process. With the help of J. Lawrence Hall Co., general ventilation can be provided by a combination of a mechanical supply-air system, a general exhaust-air system, a local exhaust system, or a make-up air system.

Often, industrial ventilation systems handle simultaneous exposure to heat and hazardous substances. Ventilation alone is frequently inadequate in meeting heat stress standards. Optimum solutions may involve spot cooling, radiation shielding, or changes in work rest patterns.

For safe, effective operations, and to meet code requirements, make-up air is required to replace the exhaust air, either through systems designed to recover energy in the exhaust air or by direct air makeup to the building. J. Lawrence Hall Co. is ready to talk with you regarding your specific concerns to make the decision-making process as easy as possible with the right solution for your application.
