We recognize not every project has easy access—particularly renovation and retrofit applications of older air handlers that are reaching the end of their useful life.  Our knock-down construction option can provide the most cost-effective solution by avoiding the time and expense of a major tear-out and reconstruction project.  In addition, the performance of your new system can be re-aligned to match current capacity and airflow requirements—with advanced technologies such as FANWALL TECHNOLOGY^®—to reduce operating expenses over the life of your new air handler.

Knock-down construction means that the unit is engineered and manufactured for disassembly prior to installation.  Extra attention is given to the break points of the unit for easy disassembly and reassembly in tight mechanical room spaces. The unit can arrive at the jobsite broken down or can be disassembled on the jobsite. Contractors can visit our factory to see how the unit is manufactured to make jobsite assembly a breeze. 

A popular option in retrofit applications is for a unit to ship complete for disassembly at the jobsite or to ship disassembled on a pallet.  Knock-down construction may also include:

• Factory marking of break points
• Fasteners designed for disassembly and reassembly
• Extra insulation and fasteners
• Factory supervised installation
• 3-D drawings and assembly instructions

Getting equipment into tight places is no longer a problem when you specify knock-down construction from Ventrol.  Contact your local Ventrol Representative to show you how knock-down construction may be the best solution for your facility needs.
