Air curtain units (ACUs) provide a controlled airstream across a door or opening, creating a seamless barrier between two distinct spaces while enabling smooth, uninterrupted traffic flow. Air curtains fulfill numerous purposes and provide building owners with significant energy savings. This course examines how air curtains work and how they reduce whole-building energy consumption and contribute to occupant wellness and safety. The role of air curtains in limiting the infiltration of insects, pathogens, and outside pollutants while maintaining thermal comfort and good indoor air quality is explained. ACU selection and installation considerations are also discussed.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

  • Describe air curtain unit types, components, and operations and how they can reduce a building’s energy consumption, improve occupants’ working and living conditions, and contribute to sustainable urban development.
  • Recognize the relationship between employing air curtains and applicable building codes, test standards, and green standards and certifications.
  • Examine how air curtains contribute to electrification and enhance sustainability by reducing energy consumption.
  • Identify the multiple purposes and applications of air curtains that contribute to sustainability and wellness, from limiting the inflow of outside pollutants to inhibiting the spread of airborne pathogens in indoor spaces.
