Displacement Ventialtion Application Presentation Displacement ventilation systems use the natural buoyancy of air to maintain a healthy and comfortable indoor climate with minimal energy input. These systems dramatically reduce the spread of airborne pathogens, odors and dust particles while providing a nearly silent HVAC system for a building’s occupants. This presentation by Andrew Asper of […]
