At DXair, our engineering and consulting staff focuses on providing cost effective solutions for controlling natatorium high humidity envelopes by working with clients on the building envelope design, materials, preventive measures taken throughout the construction stages, and secondly, by properly designing the dehumidification and air delivery system to control humidity within the natatorium while consistently exceeding all ASHRAE Guidelines for indoor pools.

Compact

DXair compact design eliminates the need for large mechanical spaces and rooftop applications. Mechanical surveys have confirmed that 90% of roof top systems do not get proper attention when service techs are working in cold, rain or snow conditions. The DXair mini foot print 60 ton unit will fit through a 36 inch door.

Twenty years ago, humidity control for an indoor swimming pool was to bring in outside air while pushing the warm humid air outside with large exhaust fans. This process only worked effectively when the outside air temperature was cool and dry enough to allow for humidity control. This type of system is not only ineffective, but it is the most expensive to operate in a pool enclosure because it cannot consistently maintain the required 50-60% RH humidity levels. When compared to conventional ventilation or "waste ventilation" systems, recycling and dehumidifying pool enclosure air with a mechanical dehumidifier can save 50-75% on energy costs, maintain the 50-60% RH required by ASHRAE, and provide 100% room heating, air conditioning and pool heating.
