Keeping large industrial spaces cool is a constant challenge. Traditional HVAC systems often struggle to deliver comfort evenly across wide production areas, resulting in wasted energy, high costs, and uncomfortable working conditions. As a result, operations leaders are increasingly seeking more efficient HVAC solutions that balance comfort, productivity, and energy efficiency.
The Cost of Inefficient Cooling in Industrial Facilities
When warehouse or plant environments overheat, the effects go far beyond discomfort. Excessive heat can lead to:
- Worker fatigue and heat stress, increasing safety risks
- Reduced precision and output, especially in temperature-sensitive processes
- Higher absenteeism and turnover, as employees avoid uncomfortable conditions
- Lost productivity and increased training costs, from frequent staff changes
Research has shown that as temperatures rise, worker performance declines exponentially. Temperature control is critical to maintaining quality and efficiency on the production floor.
Why Industrial Spot Cooling is the Smarter Solution
Instead of cooling an entire facility, industrial spot cooling targets only the areas where people work. Unico, a leader in small-duct/high-velocity HVAC systems, has partnered with Air Solutions to deliver spot cooling systems specifically designed for industrial environments.
These systems provide:
- Split-System Design – Indoor evaporator paired with an outdoor condenser for flexible installation.
- Modular Options – Choose from configurations like heat pumps, electric heat, hot water coils, DX coils, filtration, and UV purification.
- Custom Air Delivery – Air can be directed via nozzles, slot diffusers, or tailored designs for precise comfort.
- High-Temperature Performance – Proven effective even when intake air temperatures reach 105°–110°F.
The result? Conditioned work zones that are comfortable, energy-efficient, and cost-effective.
The Measurable Benefits of Targeted Cooling
Facilities that implement Unico’s spot cooling solutions experience:
- Safer, more comfortable workplaces that support employee well-being
- Higher productivity and accuracy in demanding work environments
- Reduced operating costs from more efficient use of conditioned air
- Lower absenteeism and turnover, strengthening workforce stability
Why Focused Cooling Matters
A comfortable workforce is a productive workforce. By delivering cool air directly to the areas where employees need it most, Unico and Air Solutions help companies create safer, more efficient, and more sustainable work environments, without the waste of full-facility cooling.
