Air Balancing Hood Calibration Services
What is an Air Balancing Hood?
An air balancing hood is a specialised instrument used to measure the volume of air flowing into or out of a space. It typically consists of a lightweight hood that is placed over a diffuser, grille, or register, and a measurement device that calculates the airflow rate based on the pressure difference created by the hood.
Applications of Air Balancing Hoods:
Air balancing hoods are essential tools for HVAC professionals, used in a variety of applications:
- HVAC Commissioning and Balancing: Accurately measure airflow rates to ensure proper system performance and optimise energy efficiency.
- Indoor Air Quality Assessment: Verify adequate ventilation and identify areas with insufficient airflow.
- Troubleshooting HVAC Systems: Diagnose airflow problems and identify the source of imbalances.
- Building Performance Verification: Ensure compliance with building codes and energy efficiency standards.
