3.2.4 Determining if Outdoor Air Pre-Heating is Required
Desert Aire systems require that outdoor air be pre-heated if mixed air temperatures
inside the unit may fall below 45°F. To determine if an application requires outdoor air
pre-heating, the following study needs to be conducted:
1.
Determine the following:
•
Design return air temperature. For pool rooms, typically 82°F
•
Outdoor air winter design temperature. Use values as specified by
design
engineer
or
ASHRAE
tables
•
