  • SELECTION CONSIDERATIONS
  • RuppAir

When selecting make-up air systems, consider the following factors:

  • Required airflow volume (CFM) and pressure for the application
  • Heating or cooling needs and available energy sources (gas, steam, water, etc.)
  • Type of air delivery (direct-fired, indirect-fired, steam coil, or spray cooler)
  • Environmental and process conditions (presence of contaminants, temperature range)
  • Desired level of air temperature control and stratification prevention
  • Compatibility with existing ventilation or HVAC systems
  • Construction materials and coatings for corrosion resistance and durability
  • Maintenance accessibility and lifecycle costs

RuppAir Direct-Fired Make-Up Air Units

  • Efficient systems that combine a blower, burner, and control panel into one package
  • Designed to deliver high volumes of tempered outside air directly to the building
  • Offer up to 100% outside air for ventilation and pressurization
  • Ideal for warehouses, manufacturing plants, and food service environments
  • Available in vertical or horizontal configurations to suit various installation needs
  • Can include options like variable air volume (VAV) and building pressure controls
  • Available with either axial or centrifugal fans to meet airflow and pressure demands

RuppAir Indirect-Fired Make-Up Air Units

  • Use a heat exchanger to separate combustion gases from the airstream
  • Provide clean, heated air without introducing combustion byproducts into the space
  • Designed for spaces where air cleanliness is critical, such as food processing or clean rooms
  • Offer efficiencies up to 80% with multiple burner and airflow configurations
  • Flexible fuel options including natural gas and propane
  • Available in horizontal or vertical orientations with multiple airflow configurations
  • Integrated controls and advanced diagnostics for operational reliability

RuppAir Tempered Only Make-Up Air Units

  • Provide non-heated make-up air using filtered outside air
  • Ideal for applications that need ventilation and air replacement without added heat
  • Can include evaporative cooling or chilled water coil options for cooling
  • Compact and flexible design for rooftop or indoor installation
  • Equipped with high-performance fans and filtration options
  • Designed to meet air quality codes and pressurization needs without heating components
