What is the best heated air curtain?

What is the best heated air curtain? The best heated air curtain is the one that actually fits the job – that means matching it to your door, the type of building you’ve got, and how you heat the place. There isn’t a single ‘best model’ that will magically work for every application.

For smaller entrances, an electric heated air curtain is usually pretty straightforward to install because all you need to sort out is a decent electrical supply. These can be found on our Electric air curtains page.

For bigger commercial doors, retail entrances and industrial units, though, an LPHW air curtain is often more sensible because it connects to the main heating system and can handle higher heat outputs with ease. These water-fed air curtains can be found on our Water heated air curtain page.

When it comes to low-carbon buildings, a heat pump-compatible air curtain might be the way to go – just so long as it’s been designed to handle lower water temps. We also provide these units as seen on our Heat pump air curtains page.

A good heated air curtain should stretch across the whole doorway, be set at the right height, blow air fast enough at floor level and have nice, simple controls.
