HUMMER Series

Definitely. For years, standard PVC foil, PVC doors, or traditional strip curtains dominated logistics. Modern air curtains are an ideal solution because they create a non-contact, highly effective air barrier. This invisible wall handles adverse weather conditions and rapid influxes of cold air with ease.

In modern industry, air curtains protect against uncontrollable heating cost increases while ensuring smooth traffic in a hall or warehouse. Even the most difficult weather conditions cannot break through the strong defensive stream.

For industrial gates with non-standard dimensions, the most important issue is achieving coverage across the entire width or height of the gate. For this reason, two mounting variants for HUMMER industrial curtains are used:

The first mounting variant is horizontal air curtains, where several units are installed in a row above the gate. Please remember that the gate height must not exceed the maximum range of the curtain.

The second mounting variant, often recommended for large gates, is vertical air curtains. In the case of vertical installation, the units are arranged in a vertical column.

In production halls, devices equipped with heating elements are commonly used — typically powered by water from a central heating system. They utilize a copper-aluminum heat exchanger that takes warm water from the building's heating system to heat the flowing air. The choice of models characterized by a water exchanger connected to the building's heating network directly affects the thermal comfort of people in the entrance zone.

Automating the shut-off of the heating water supply using two-way or three-way valves with actuators (which we recommend) is very helpful here. This allows for effective temperature stabilization, using less energy without the risk of burdening the company budget with additional heating costs.

In contrast, "ambient" models, which intentionally lack a heater or water exchanger, function solely as a barrier.

Yes. HUMMER E models use special PTC-type electric heaters. This guarantees safety without the risk of ignition. Even at low room temperatures and very high airflow speeds, the thermal comfort at the entrance for people entering the building will increase.

Optimizing the airflow stream is essential for success and ensuring maximum gate protection effectiveness. Air vanes (or precision air directional louvers) allow for optimal airflow adjustment with a range of up to 15°.

Yes. Although air curtains equipped with a heating element improve the comfort of people passing under them by heating the entrance zone, even ambient models effectively prevent heat from escaping the interior. Their key operating principle is spatial separation. When correctly mounted in the right position, they create a barrier against wind coming from the outside. Using any curtains — whether with an electric heater or so-called ambient models — is absolutely necessary in the annual balance to prevent warm air loss and heat loss in entrance zones.

Ambient / without heat exchanger: Curtains without a heat exchanger, marked with the letter "C" in both series.

Electric: HUMMER curtains with electric heaters are marked with the letter "E".

Water: Curtains with a water heat exchanger connected to the central heating system. In the HUMMER series, these are marked with the letter "W".

Electric air curtains from both series are equipped with modern and energy-efficient PTC heaters, but they differ in power. Industrial HUMMER models feature higher-power heaters, which allow for the effective protection of gates with ranges up to 8 meters. In contrast, the commercial AERIS series consumes significantly less energy, being a solution ideally adapted to standard entrances with a range of up to 3 meters. HUMMER units consist of industrial axial fans, while AERIS units use "cross-flow fans".
