Moisture in factories: ventilate or heat?

 

Steam and moisture are by-products of many industrial production processes. But they can have an extremely negative effect on working conditions.

Humidity is an important factor in people's perception of comfort, excessive levels can cause a significant drop in productivity and can lead to the accumulation of condensation or mold damaging the quality of production, equipment and the building itself.

This control of humidity levels is particularly critical in the food industry. Moisture is a carrier of bacteria, increases the risk of contamination and can reduce the shelf life and shelf life of products.

Ventilate or heat?

 

 

And there are different approaches to controlling humidity levels in manufacturing facilities. The use of locally extracting industrial fans that prevents moisture from reaching the general environment is more cost-effective than general dilution ventilation, but for both methods the controlled introduction of replacement hot air is often the key to an effective solution.

Each structure has different needs, for this reason it becomes essential to consider factors such as the level of humidity released by the production process, the internal temperature of the building, the maximum relative humidity in each season and the heat transfer capacity. Only by taking into account all the variables involved can an industrial ventilation system be obtained that is not only effective but also efficient in terms of consumption.
