The Vortex Energy Saver's products are a specially designed
air circulating fan with a patented method of collecting warm air beneath the ceiling or roof, and returning it to the floor through a narrow, columnar air path even when located up to
50 feet above the floor. As soon as the air column reaches the floor, it gently spreads out along the floor, up the walls, and along the ceiling or roof, where it is collected and returned to the floor. This cycle is then repeated over and over, eventually
balancing the temperature within the space.
Essentially the Vortex Air System acts like a "dynamic" insulator. It is much like wrapping your building in a blanket of insulation, just by turning on a switch. The Vortex Energy Saver works in perfect harmony with your present heating or cooling system and properly placed it will not disrupt desired airflow patterns from supply or return air distribution equipment. Diffuser fans may be turned off, thus saving more energy dollars.
The Vortex Air System works to overcome two physical aspects: Warm air rising and cold air drops. In winter when a building is heated, the heated air rises and collects beneath the roof.
Unless insulated with a very thick blanket of insulation, the roof will allow heat to escape rapidly through it, until it is eventually lost to the outside. The colder it is outside, the more heat required, and the faster this heat transfer takes place. Vortex Air System, simply put,
saves energy by dramatically slowing down the rate of heat transfer, by balancing the temperature within the space reducing the demand for heat, keeping occupants more comfortable.
In the summer when you cool your building with air conditioning, the cold air generated falls to the floor and forms a wasted layer of energy. Breaking up and circulating this cold air layer will minimize the demand for air conditioning by balancing the temperature within the space. This keeps occupants more comfortable by balancing the temperature within the room, resulting in a dramatic reduction of complaints (particularly in restaurants).
Wind chill factors as great as 8° prevents standard paddle fans from delivering maximum comfort and savings. A 2500 sq. ft. room will be drafty 100% of the time.
VORTEX AIR SYSTEM: Is a superior alternative to conventional industrial paddle fans and other expensive air movement systems. A 2500 sq. ft. room will have 2 sq. ft. of down draft at room temperature, with 2496 sq. ft. with no draft at all. 100% comfort and up to 30% or more savings on cooling and heating costs.
