LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Wipe exterior surfaces of the Berner ARD12-1048E with a mild detergent and soft cloth; rinse and dry. Apply EPA-registered sanitizer on high-touch zones—menu covers, chair backs, door handles—following label contact time. Vacuum intake grilles weekly and clean coils quarterly to prevent debris buildup that attracts pests. Inspect seals and fasteners monthly; tighten or replace as needed to extend service life and maintain health-code compliance.#@@#Additional Info#@#Berner ARD12-1048E Heated Architectural air door is 48" long, has 14 kW heating, a 1/2 HP motor with 10-speed control, mounts to openings up to 12 Ft., operates at 208 volts 1-Ph, cULus certified, made in USA, and weighs 148 pounds.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#
Stop compromising door operation comfort for efficiency. This recessed heated air door installs cleanly above openings and maintains interior climate control while reducing infiltration at high-traffic entries. Designed for commercial settings, this unit delivers controlled airflow and electric heat to support hygienic environments and energy management goals.
#@@# Motor Performance#@#
A single 1/2 HP motor drives airflow through the unit, delivering consistent performance across ten available speeds. Technicians will appreciate variable control that adapts to peak entry times and quiet periods while reducing motor wear through selectable operation.
#@@# Electric Heat Capacity#@#
The unit provides 14kW of electric heat at 208 volts to establish a reliable thermal barrier across the opening. Operators can maintain interior temperatures in cold conditions without auxiliary heaters, lowering localized heating load and improving occupant comfort.
#@@# Mounting Range#@#
Installers can mount the unit for openings up to 12 Ft in height, covering common storefronts, loading docks, and institutional entrances. The recessed configuration integrates with soffits and facades to preserve architectural intent while delivering functional airflow.
#@@# Access and Maintenance#@#
A hinged white aluminum bottom access plate offers tool-free entry for routine inspection and service, minimizing downtime. Maintenance crews access controls and wiring without removing the entire assembly, which streamlines preventive tasks.
#@@# Control Flexibility#@#
Ten-speed control lets facility managers fine-tune airflow velocity and thermal output to suit traffic patterns and interior conditions. Operators adjust settings to balance draft control with energy consumption, enabling operational efficiency in variable climates.
#@@# Compliance and Origin#@#
cULus certification verifies compliance with applicable safety standards and simplifies code review during installation.
