HEALTHY AIR – SORTED The Westpac head office at The Terrace achieves a highly coveted 5 Star Green Star rating – high performance air diffusion products from Temperzone played a key role The Green Star rating system factors in healthy environments and their overall performance – and few things could be more fundamental to this than the achievement of healthy air quality. With a widely respected industry name in high- performance air diffusion products, Temperzone supplied cutting-edge solutions for the Westpac offices – principally employing the Smartemp range. Smartemp concentrates on creating industry leading products with unique design elements to maximise performance in office environments, says Temperzone marketing manager Jamie Nankivell. Two principal air diffusion products were employed at the Westpac head office. “The Smartemp HSC-FD Fixed Helical Swirl Diffuser is the highest capacity and highest per- forming fixed vane VAV swirl diffuser available,” says Nankivell. “With 20 off-set radial swirl vanes with unique helical twist and cambered leading edges, the diffuser discharges the supply air with high induction swirl in a fixed radial pattern.” This produces horizontal discharge into the space, greatly improving air flow efficiency and comfort. The swirl diffuser was used in conjunction with Smartemp’s LMC-AD Linear Multistream Ceiling Diffuser – a high induction linear slot diffuser. This has a multitude of barrel nozzles that produce alternating mini-jet discharge. The discharge direc- tion of each barrel nozzle is individually adjustable, providing accurate, easy air pattern adjustment. Temperzone also supplied its own high quality, New Zealand-made fan coils as part of the fit-out. “Our products are typically chosen for their qual- ity, value and for our prompt back-up support.” For details, contact Temperzone, 38 Tidal Rd, Mangere, Auckland, phone: [phone].
