Businesses across industries need HVAC to regulate the conditions in their facilities, but HVAC systems are not always one-size-fits-all. Particularly in challenging environments or demanding applications, off-the-shelf HVAC and Environmental Control Units (ECUs) often fail to meet precise requirements. Whether you need temperature stability, humidity control, or specialized air filtration, finding a tailored solution is critical.

As a leading custom HVAC manufacturer, Air Innovations offers full-service capabilities in HVAC design, prototyping, and production. Our team specializes in delivering custom HVAC systems and ECUs engineered to meet unique environmental challenges within the medical, aerospace, military, and industrial sectors. Here, we’ll explore our comprehensive capabilities and how our end-to-end approach can benefit your business.

Air Innovations: Mastering Environmental Control, Start to Finish

At Air Innovations, we take a comprehensive approach to custom HVAC design, ensuring every product meets your exact needs. Our process starts with a deep understanding of your specific climate control requirements. We collaborate with you to assess environmental factors, application constraints, and performance expectations before our expert team of engineers develops a tailored solution. Unlike most off-the-shelf products, our custom HVAC units are optimized for precise temperature regulation, humidity control, air filtration, and pressurization to ensure they meet the demands of your industry.

Once the initial design is finalized, we move to prototyping and rigorous testing in our advanced, in-house psychrometric facility. This process ensures that every unit will meet the required specifications prior to production.

HVAC Design, Prototyping & Production: Our Comprehensive Approach

Air Innovations’ comprehensive approach to HVAC and ECU development follows these main steps:

1. Custom Environmental Control & HVAC Unit Design

Designing the right HVAC system or ECU involves several considerations:

Custom Environmental Control & HVAC Unit Design
Prototyping & Testing: Ensuring Performance and Reliability

2. Prototyping & Testing: Ensuring Performance and Reliability

At Air Innovations, we maintain a dedicated R&D department to create, test, and validate our customized systems. Before production begins, we create a prototype of your design, which is rigorously tested in our in-house psychrometric testing chamber. Doing this allows us to confirm system performance under real-world conditions and make necessary refinements.

3. Precise HVAC Manufacturing

Once your design is tested and validated, we can move to manufacturing. At Air Innovations, we can handle both one-off custom solutions and large-scale repeat builds. Whether you have strict size or shape requirements, require an explosion-proof solution, or need precise microbial control, our team of experts can produce the ideal system. With decades of experience, we can manufacture custom HVAC units that meet the most challenging specifications.

Identify Your Environmental Control Needs

Begin by identifying your environmental control needs:

  • Temperature Control. Our systems provide precise temperature control in environments ranging from -20°F to 125°F (-29°C to 52°C).
  • Humidity Regulation. Our systems can accurately control humidity and dew point to ensure proper moisture levels for your environment.
  • Filtration. Our systems can be tailored to meet your filtration needs, with options for molecular, ULPA, and HEPA filters.
  • Pressurization. Our HVAC systems and ECUs can be designed for both positive and negative pressurization.

Determine the Right ECU Configuration

To meet varying application requirements, our custom ECUs are available in three main configurations:

  • Integrated. Integrated units accommodate your existing equipment structures, resulting in improved efficiency, reduced installation costs, and a smaller footprint.
  • Mounted. Mounted units attach to existing systems, reducing their overall footprint and weight.
  • Standalone. Standalone units are installed around equipment, allowing for improved flexibility and performance capabilities.

Choose Features and Customization Options

Our HVAC systems and ECUs can include various features and customization options, including:

  • Custom sizing and configurations
  • Stationary or mobile units
  • UV sterilization
  • Up to 5,000 CFM
  • Explosion-proof capabilities
  • DX, thermoelectric, or chilled water cooling
  • MIL-SPEC or SEMI standards
  • Cooling capacity ranging from 3,000 to 180,000 BTU/h
