OVERVIEW 

 
Mars Air Curtains are 
designed to cover 
door openings, 
providing both 
temperature 
control/environmental 
separation and flying 
insect control, when 
the building’s doors 
are opened.  Typical 
installation heights 
are: LoPro Series; LPV2  (Variable Speed) models 
(Environmental up to 8’), LPN2  (ETL Sanitation  for 
Customer Entrances) models (Flying Insect Control up to 
7’) and LPN2-F (ETL Sanitation  for Counter Top/Pass 
Through Windows) models (Flying Insect Control up to 4’ 
from Counter Top) All ETL Sanitation Certified Models 
should be mounted at the Flying Insect Control heights 
referenced above. The units are typically wall mounted 
horizontally above the door opening.  They can also be 
suspended from the ceiling. The units are ETL Listed, 
Canada and US, for either an inside or outside mount and 
ETL Sanitation Certified. Heated units must be mounted 
on the inside or the protected side of the opening.  The 
motors used in all LoPro Series are 1/6HP.  

 
The LoPro Series come standard with a stamped air 
intake screen(s). The LPV2  models can be configured 
with an aluminum mesh filter(s) as an option. The LPN2 
models 25” and all LPN-F models come standard with an 
aluminum mesh air intake filter(s) in conjunction with the 
punched air intake screen(s).
