The art of handling air

architecture+indoor climate
The Architects wealth of ideas and design options are at the same time the inspiration and stimulus for our architecture+indoor climate team. For more than 50 years, architecture+indoor climate has been offering architects around the globe the greatest freedom of choice in the development of air conditioning solutions. architecture+indoor climate is based on the uncompromising implementation of artistic architectural design options, whether it relates to a specific air conditioning concept, central air conditioning systems, air and water systems or decentralised systems.

Air conditioning know-how

The creative impulse of the architect combined with our professional air conditioning know-how which is essential in complex buildings fulfils the most rigorous requirements in terms of comfort, aesthetics, environmental friendliness and economic efficiency, for example as in: Office buildings Hotels Shopping centres Airports Sport arenas Conference centres Exhibition and convention halls Hospitals

The collaborative process

architecture+indoor climate supports the architect in the development of optimum room air distribution concepts for new buildings as well as for the refurbishment of existing buildings. In almost all phases of the design development and the building process, architects can use the comprehensive consultation and service benefits provided by architecture+indoor climate. The benefits spectrum of architecture+indoor climate covers, amongst other issues: Concept development and optimisation Variant analysis Energy usage evaluation Economic efficiency analysis Design development Building of prototypes Performance tests (cooling, heating, acoustics, air distribution) Order execution

Air and air conditioning design

architecture+indoor climate develops products which fulfil both the aesthetic design concepts of the architect and the functional and engineering requirements. Air diffuser design can be integrated as gracefully-designed elements of the rooms architecture, or if necessary can also be completely invisible to the viewer. Diffusers are available in various configurations and performances: Jet nozzles Displacement flow diffusers Swirl diffusers Floor diffusers Linear ball diffusers Slot diffusers

Air conditioning technology: a conflicting issue

Air conditioning technology is very frequently a conflicting issue in relation to the design and its realisation. It is essential at an early stage in a building project to integrate the design of indoor climate control and ventilation concepts considering for example: most demanding architectural requirements energy-saving cost-effectiveness and at the same time greater efficiency of indoor air quality and air temperature control.

Air-water systems
Thanks to the ComBeam product range, architecture+indoor climate has developed air-water systems which offer the ultimate flexibility in the design and related technology for both new and building refurbishment projects. In addition to heating, cooling and ventilation functions, ComBeam products can also provide the platform to integrate other building services, for example: Lighting Loudspeakers Smoke detectors Sprinklers

This also allows the problem-free integration of multi services into the building management system.

Ceiling design with ComBeam

The factory prefabrication of ComBeams allows off site integrated construction, thus: shortening the construction period reducing the ceiling void height making installation easier (Plug and Play) enabling quicker amortisation of the investment cost for the owner reducing the number of interfaces required ComBeams in operation: have minimal maintenance and operating costs are energy-saving systems allow flexible solutions for a wide range of buildings

Decentralised ventilation
Individual adjustment and the supply of outdoor air through windows which can be opened account for the strong user acceptance of decentralised ventilation systems. Individual control and comfort can be combined with low investments and energy costs. architecture+indoor climate has created the FSL concept. The innovative technology of decentralised ventilation systems is merged into the faade. FSL faade system ventilation: Intelligent faades Cost-effective systems Efficient ventilation

FSL faade system ventilation

FSL units can be integrated into the faade of new or refurbished buildings as regards to architectural requirements, as, for example: Sill units Underfloor units

The FSL technology allows: individual heating, cooling and air conditioning air filtration noise attenuation heat recovery night cooling with windows closed construction cost reduction through reduced floor void height flexible equipment and installation
