Compensating for workshop vacuum with heating and cooling
At the client's request, vacuum compensation was implemented in the production workshop, supplemented with adiabatic cooling and heating functions. The system automatically regulates the air volume according to the vacuum present in production.
Project Challenge
In the production workshop, technological processes created air rarefaction, i.e. a vacuum in the space, which interfered with equipment operation and affected the working environment. The client needed a solution that would automatically compensate for the resulting vacuum and additionally ensure a stable air temperature year-round.
How We Built It
We established a vacuum compensation system that measures the rarefaction created in production and automatically adjusts the amount of supply air accordingly. We supplemented the system with climate management functions to ensure that the supply air is at a suitable temperature in every season.
- Vacuum-based automation that adjusts the air volume according to the rarefaction present in production
- Adiabatic cooling for warmer periods
- Heating function for colder periods
- Air exchange up to 35 000 m3/h
What We Achieved
- Automatic vacuum compensation according to real-time measured rarefaction
- Year-round indoor climate ensured thanks to heating and cooling functions
- Adiabatic cooling for energy-efficient air cooling
- A more stable working environment and air exchange that supports production processes

Factory Vacuum Compensation with Ventilation Unit
We installed a water-heated ventilation unit together with control automation and a water node at the factory of window manufacturer Viljandi Aken ja Uks to compensate for the air extracted by various equipment. The system ensures air exchange at a volume of 20 000 m³/h, filters the supply air with filtration grade M5, and heats the air to a level suitable for the indoor climate.
Ventilation of the press room in the production facility
For the press room of Tarmeko LPD's new production building, we prepared the ventilation design and working drawings, supplied the equipment, and carried out the installation. Forming with the presses generates fumes, which is why we built a solution where odours are extracted from above each machine and compensated with fresh, clean air. The result is an improved working environment and more comfortable working conditions.
Production facility heating solution with Metmann air curtains
The heating system at Nordwood's production facility was upgraded with three Metmann water-heated industrial air curtains. The units circulate air within the space at up to 25,000 m³/h, ensuring uniform heat and reducing the inflow of cold air through continuously open doors. The solution improved working conditions and also reduced energy consumption.
