Stop sacrificing climate control for aesthetics. This recessed heated air door provides targeted air separation, electric heating, and reliable airflow control in a low-profile design ideal for high-traffic commercial openings. Designed for mounting up to 16 feet, it effectively balances thermal containment and entrainment suppression, reducing HVAC load while ensuring indoor comfort at scale.
LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Wipe the air door’s aluminum housing and access panel with a mild detergent and damp cloth; rinse and dry. Clean fan blades and motor housings every 3 months; use a soft brush and low-pressure air to remove dust. Sanitize high-touch surfaces like control switches and door handles with an EPA-registered disinfectant. Keep spills away from the unit base to deter pests and prevent contamination. Regular cleaning preserves appearance and compliance.#@@#Additional Info#@#Berner ARC16-2108E-1 recessed heated air door, 108" wide, delivers 28 kW heat with two 1 HP motors; Intelliswitch controller and hinged access panel allow service access, CSA and cULus listed, made in USA, for 16 ft openings, weighing 299 pounds.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#
Stop sacrificing climate control for aesthetics. This recessed heated air door provides targeted air separation, electric heating, and reliable airflow control in a low-profile design ideal for high-traffic commercial openings. Designed for mounting up to 16 feet, it effectively balances thermal containment and entrainment suppression, reducing HVAC load while ensuring indoor comfort at scale.
#@@# Two Speed Motors#@#
Two 1 HP motors deliver powerful airflow with redundancy, allowing operators to choose between two distinct speed settings based on demand. This setup enables controlled air curtain performance that adapts to occupancy peaks, minimizing energy consumption during lower traffic periods.
#@@# Electric Heat Output#@#
The unit offers 28 kW of electric heat to supplement the airstream, maintaining interior temperatures when doors cycle frequently. Facility managers can depend on the integrated heating element to minimize heat loss and lessen the strain on central heating systems during colder months.
#@@# Intelliswitch Controller#@#
An Intelliswitch controller simplifies operational control and sequencing for fan and heat functions, enhancing performance consistency across shifts. Technicians value the precise logic that reduces manual intervention and supports predictable energy usage patterns.
#@@# Recessed Architectural Design#@#
The recessed architectural profile integrates seamlessly into ceiling soffits, preserving corridor and storefront aesthetics while maintaining a full-width air barrier. Specifiers appreciate the low-visibility installation, which is beneficial for modern interiors where exposed units would disrupt design intent.
#@@# Serviceable Access Panel#@#
A hinged white aluminum bottom access panel allows for quick, safe service access to electrical components and motors without the need to remove ceiling finishes. Maintenance crews can conduct routine inspections and repairs more efficiently, reducing downtime and labor costs per service event.
