3 Construction and operation
The TopVent
®
TW serves as an air curtain to protect entrance areas against the
cold. The unit is installed over or next to the door. It takes in room air, heats it by
means of the heating coil and blows it back into the room at a high speed. This
creates a barrier of flowing air, which protects the indoor climate from external
influences.
There are 3 unit sizes, which are each equipped with an infinitely variable fan and
a custom-made heating coil.
