air handling units design

Our range of experienced, air handling unit engineers will work in partnership with you to ensure that we design a unit to meet and exceed your exact specification. Each AHU arrangement and component selection is individually designed to your specific requirement ensuring the air handling unit produced performs with peak performance and optimised efficiency.Upon submission of your air handling unit requirements, either to our experienced technical sales engineers (who cover the length and breadth of the UK) or direct in to head office, initial design, at tender stage, is carried out by our experienced team of estimators and application engineers.At this point, your project will be discussed in full and proposals will be based upon required flow rates (0.2 m³/s to +50m³/s), volumes, application, unit specification and limiting factors of the project (i.e. site access, unit size, unit configuration – side-by-side / stacked). Once your order is placed, the air handling unit project is passed to our contracts department, where initial designs are adjusted, calibrated and finalised by our highly experienced engineers.

AHU unit arrangement CAD drawings are then put into production and can be supported by Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) – this service is optional and chargeable. Following this process, technical and performance documentation plus drawings are submitted to you for finalised sign-off. Once approved, drawings are issued to production and units are manufactured, 100% in the UK.

The Custom-Air line was developed by United Metal Products® to meet the ever-increasing demand for customized air handling units. These heavy-duty welded frame units are available from 1,000 to over 200,000 CFM. These solutions are completely customizable and can be fitted with a full range of options including chilled water and DX to steam or gas heating. As a proven industry leader who has over thirty-five years of experience in creating super efficient, innovative temperature control systems, our engineering team would be more than happy to assist you by designing the perfect system to meet your most unique and complex heating and cooling needs. The DRU™ is a low profile exact replacement A/C unit for buildings that are currently equipped with outdated cooling or heating equipment. United Metal Products specifically designs the Direct Replacement Unit to match all pre-existing equipment penetrations so that no new curbs are needed. The DRU is also designed to closely match the operating weights of your current equipment, which means in most cases that no structural modifications are needed.

The custom fit design of the Direct Replacement Units makes them perfect for customers who have multiple site replacement needs. The Modular Air Handling Unit line of fan coil units is a high quality, high performance, cost effective small air-handling unit. The Modular Air Handling Unit is a highly customizable unit that brings modular specific components together in a unique operating system. The Modular Air Handling Unit is made out of extremely high quality components that are typically reserved for commercial air handlers. The Modular Air Handling Unit has been designed for applications that demand the high quality components of an air handling unit along with a fan and cabinet that can produce high static pressures in the low profile format of a traditional fan coil unit. The technologically innovative design of the Modular Air Handling Unit allows for a very low maintenance product that is perfectly suited for Mixed Air, 100% RA, 100% OSA, economizer applications, while meeting the most stringent engineering specifications.

The VAHU™ line of heating and cooling systems is a high quality, high performance, cost effective small air-handling unit designed specifically for tight applications. The VAHU is a perfect cooling solution for areas where the footprint of a traditional air handling unit is not a viable option. The VAHU is made out of extremely high quality components that are typically reserved for larger custom air handling units. For instance, the VAHU comes with a fan and a cabinet that can produce high profile static pressures without occupying the larger footprint area of a traditional fan coil unit. The space saving engineering design of the VAHU makes it an excellent choice for classrooms, pharmaceutical laboratories, clean rooms, and other areas where space is at a premium. The integrative streamlined design also makes it suitable for Mixed Air, 100% R.A., 100% OSA applications. The Custom-Air line was developed by United Metal Products to meet the ever-increasing demand for custom air handling units.
