Underfloor Air Conditioning System

Underfloor Air Conditioning(UFAC)

Underfloor air conditioning is a system that uses the space beneath a raised floor to distribute conditioned air throughout a building. UFAC is often used in commercial buildings to provide a comfortable and flexible indoor environment.

How does it work?

An underfloor air conditioning system works by using the space beneath a raised floor as a plenum for distributing conditioned air throughout a building. Here's how it typically works:

  1. Conditioned air is supplied into the underfloor plenum through a network of ducts and diffusers located beneath the floor.
  2. The air is then allowed to flow freely through the plenum, rising up through floor vents strategically placed throughout the space.
  3. As the air rises, it naturally cools or heats the space above the floor, providing a comfortable environment for occupants.
  4. Return grilles located at higher levels in the room allow the air to be drawn back down into the underfloor plenum, where it is recirculated and conditioned again.
  5. The system is controlled by a central management system that monitors and adjusts the temperature and airflow to maintain optimal comfort levels throughout the building.

Type of UFAC

CAM-C

The CAM-C delivers conditioned air into the supply plenum and receives return.

CAM-V

The CAM-V delivers conditioned air into the supply plenum and receives return air at high level.

Benefits

Benefits of Underfloor Air Conditioning

  • Improved Air Quality: Enhanced ventilation and air distribution can lead to better indoor air quality.
  • Energy Efficiency: UFAC systems can be more energy-efficient than traditional systems, reducing operational costs.
  • Flexibility: The system allows for easy reconfiguration of spaces without the need for extensive ductwork.
  • Aesthetic Appeal: With ducts hidden beneath the floor, UFAC systems can contribute to a cleaner and more modern aesthetic.
