Makeup Air

Custom Design & Installation Make-up Air Units – Michigan

Providing a comfortable temperature and atmosphere inside large buildings like offices, retail stores, industrial spaces, etc., almost always requires professional air handlers, in addition to the HVAC units. The role of the air handlers is to filter, condition and circulate the air. Large air handlers that condition outside air (as opposed to recirculating it) are called makeup air units (MAU).

Industrial Space Heaters provide an energy efficient way to heat large buildings and direct gas-fired make-up air units offer a cost effective way to provide fresh, tempered make-up air (MUA) to replace building exhaust in all types of commercial and industrial applications. We install some of the best brands of industrial makeup air units like Cambridge gas-fired make-up air units, Sterling Indoor Gas-Fired Make-Up Air equipment and Reznor heating & cooling makeup air systems.

Cambridge® direct gas-fired Heaters

Cambridge® direct gas-fired Heaters

Being the best at saving energy with lower operating costs and improved air quality makes Cambridge direct gas-fired heater equipment hard to beat. Cambridge was the first to pioneer the concept of using direct gas-fired heaters for industrial space heating applications over 45 years ago and today the Cambridge Burner, combined with Blow-Thru® technology outperforms and provides higher BTU/CFM ratio and lower operating costs. It is also Pre-qualified for EPA Federal tax deductions when used in eligible buildings.

What are the components of a MakeUp Air Unit?

As MakeUp Air systems are designed to serve the precise needs of the building, they could include a Direct Fired Gas Heating System adding warm, fresh and clean air to your work environment for greater comfort and productivity. Add evaporative cooling modules for year round performance and a variety of components, like variable speed blowers, heating and cooling elements, humidifiers, heat recovery elements and more. When selecting one particular type of make up air system, one needs to consider the size of the building, other heating and cooling systems installed, the capacity and need of the exhaust system, ventilation needs, etc. At AS Contrera, we start with high quality components and design the makeup air system that best fits your space and needs. With features such as zoning capabilities, high efficiency and low operating costs, our make up units deliver superior performance, recover initial costs quickly and improve indoor air quality wether you are in need of warehouse heating or building cooling.

Why install a Make-Up Air System?

  • MakeUp Air helps avoid negative pressure – as the exhaust system removes air from inside the building, unless that air is replaced, the pressure inside will be lower than the outside
  • Make-Up Air helps reduces drafts and cold air infiltration – because of low pressure inside, the air tends to enter through open doors and windows, and every crack.
  • Make-up Air reduces temperature fluctuations – by reducing drafts, the temperature will be more constant throughout.
  • Make-up air systems dramatically improve the efficiency of the exhaust system and of the air cooling and heating systems
  • MakeUp Air systems are economical, efficient, flexible and easy to service.
