Advantages to Plenum Pressure Regulation
 
Effective management of plenum pressure contributes to energy savings and improved comfort.
 
Raised access floor systems and underfloor air distribution (UFAD) have been used for years as a means of creating a flexible workspace with easily accessible and reconfigurable building services.
 
 


Price Unitee Ceiling Systems
 
Price’s ceiling system offering has expanded in recent years, and now offers even more mechanical and structural flexibility.
 
Price Unitee ceiling systems provide a strong ceiling and equipment support structure, easy field installation and long-term mechanical flexibility. Access to interstitial space through ceiling panels allows for convenient maintenance or replacement of ceiling plenum equipment.
 
 


Displacement Diffuser Selection 
 
Using Draft Ratio to Measure Performance
 
Draft Ratio is a more appropriate metric than Adjacent Zone as it identifies the percentage of people dissatisfied based on a combination of temperature, velocity and turbulence intensity. Performance data, when presented in this form, gives the engineer useful information about thermal conditions around a displacement diffuser.
