Energy efficiency

Energy efficient supermarkets in Thailand
A large retail chain, with more than 2000 stores in Thailand, has launched an energy-saving program for their entire organization. Frico air curtains are part of the concept and will protect air-conditioned premises and cold rooms.
Warm summer evenings at the lowest possible price
When the sun's heat is not enough, we must help nature along with radiant heaters to enjoy the outside on summer evenings. It is important to make smart choices so you get maximum heat for your money and save the environment.
Air curtains in big doors – big energy savings
The larger the door and the more frequently it is opened, the greater the energy loss through the door. Therefore, industrial doors and other large openings are particularly vulnerable.
A lot to save with air curtains in cold rooms
Many things in our modern society are dependent on cold storage. Food and medicine are some examples. Thick insulated walls and doors are needed to keep the cold in place. But to transport goods in and out, doors need to be opened and closed.
Air curtains - the smart way to stay cool!
Air conditioning consumes more energy than heating and demand for cooling, and particularly air conditioning, is growing exponentially.
Frico receives grant for researching a new measurement standard for air curtains
An application from Frico has been granted support from Vinnova (Swedish governmental agency for innovation systems) for a research project aiming for a proposal on a new measurement standard for air curtains.
Frico initiator of a new air curtain group at Eurovent
Eurovent is the European Committee for manufacturers of HVAC and representatives of major European national associations in the industry of heating, ventilation, air conditioning and cooling.
Air Curtains are now included as an energy-saving alternative in American building code
Extensive investigation published by AMCA gave results. Now air curtains are an approved alternative to building vestibules in American building code IECC 2015.
AMCA proves that air curtains provide the best possible protection at entrances
Three times more effective against the infiltration of outside air, and far more energy efficient than vestibules. This was the result when air curtains were tested by the world's leading authority on air movement and system equipment for air.
Comfort or energy saving – or why not both?
The reasons for installing an air curtain can vary. In a café, where comfort is important for example, one wants to use as much of the floor area as possible, including near the doors, in order to have space for more customers.
Thermozone technology – so much more than cubic metres per hour!
Do you compare air curtains based on how many cubic metres per hour the air curtain can supply? If that is the case we would suggest that you are missing out!
The Thermozone technology
The point of an air curtain is to reduce energy loss through the door. In other words; to ensure that the heated or cooled air you have in your room stay there and doesn’t leak out when the door opens.
You tube: SIRe control system makes air curtains and fan heaters intelligent
With SIRe you get a unit that adapts itself and learns the conditions at your entrance and ensures that high comfort and low energy consumption is maintained.

Energy efficiency is the future
Nobody can have failed to notice that the requirements for energy efficiency are constantly increasing – a situation that is fully in line with Frico’s investment in energy-efficient products
10 things you need to know about radiant heaters
An electric radiant heater is more energy-efficient as a result of all the heat being focused on heating up the surface, which, in turn, reflects heat back.
