• Is your FCU smart enough for today’s buildings? What to look for in 2025

    September 8, 2025

    As smart buildings become the standard in modern construction and retrofit projects, HVAC systems are expected to adapt to evolving demands in energy efficiency, automated control, and occupant comfort. The fan coil unit (FCU), once a passive terminal component, is now a critical part of this transformation. Its integration with advanced sensors, digital controllers, and building management systems (BMS) determines how well a facility can respond to real-time environmental variables and energy optimization targets. In 2025, evaluating an FCU is no longer just about cooling capacity and air distribution — it now includes intelligent operation, connectivity, and regulatory readiness. Intelligence and integration ...

  • Static pressure and EC fan coil units: What you need to know

    May 30, 2025

    When it comes to indoor climate control, fan coil units are often the go-to solution in commercial, hospitality, and residential buildings. But in today’s energy-conscious design world, not all fan coils are created equal, especially when static pressure and efficiency are part of the conversation. One of the biggest innovations reshaping fan coil performance is the use of EC (Electronically Commutated) motors, which bring significant control and energy benefits. To make the most of these features, it’s essential to understand how static pressure plays a role in system design and performance. What is static pressure in HVAC? Static pressure refers to the resistance ...

  • Hygienic AHUs and their role in the fight against allergens

    May 6, 2025

    Indoor air quality can affect health and well-being, especially in the modern world. Hygienic AHU play an essential role, as they are structured to meet strict cleanliness standards, fixing the presence of allergens and other harmful particulates in indoor spaces.   Here’s a breakdown of a Hygienic AHU and its importance: Specialized design Unlike normal AHUs, Hygienic AHUs can ease the issue of cleaning and disinfection. They also have smooth, non-porous surfaces that would eliminate dust, mold, and bacteria. The materials that are utilized in construction are mainly stainless steel or other corrosion-resistant substances that minimize microbial growth. They are designed to reduce the ...

  • When to replace a hygiene air handling unit: Signs of wear and tear

    January 29, 2025

    Hygiene units in commercial kitchens, hospitals, and other demanding indoor environments experience extensive runtime compared to standard AHUs. While maintenance keeps them operational, components eventually reach the end of their usable lifespan. A hygiene unit supplier in UAE can spot signs when it’s time for replacement rather than ongoing repairs. Degraded filtration performance Particulate and odor removal relies on robust filtration. Clogged or damaged filters compromise hygiene unit functions over time and struggle to maintain proper indoor air quality (IAQ). Periodic replacement is recommended, but failing filters may mean other components deteriorate too. New units integrate higher-grade long-life filter racks and media. Inefficient ...
