How to Lie with Silencers

How to Lie with Silencers

Air Flow’s upcoming class Industry Testing Standards of HVAC Equipment (AMCA, AHRI, AMCA Sound) is going to spend some time on silencers. Why? The numbers insertion loss and pressure drop data is important. But more important is how the numbers were arrived upon. ...
What’s the correct terminal for return?

What’s the correct terminal for return?

That’s a dandy of a question. It depends on the problem you are trying to solve. LINT:  Price can accommodate a standard VAV box with an orifice ring instead of a cross flow sensor.  Take the static pressure on both sides of the ring, know the opening size of the...

No Role Models, No Problem. Meet Price Industries.

Just a few weeks ago, I posted that it had been 25 years since I became the ‘new’ owner of Air Flow Inc. If you’ve followed any of our social posts and videos, you know that founder Al Gelin passed away in a plane crash in 1995, and founder Neil Drees from cancer in...
Turns Out, Price Has a Leakage Nerd Too

Turns Out, Price Has a Leakage Nerd Too

I thought I was alone on the quest to research and teach folks about duct and system leakage.  Turns out I’m not alone.  Meet Mark Mahon, Business Development Manager for Price Industries and all-around great guy.  (Nerdiness never prevented likeability, did it?)  A...
The Price is Wrong. But just hang on a second.

The Price is Wrong. But just hang on a second.

“I have an $800 diffuser to sell you.” “Hello?” Some discussions end before they begin. On the subject of designing around electronic VAV diffusers, the discussion is usually over before it starts. No problem.  15X the cost of something that works is a challenge for...
Even 60 Minutes gets it wrong.

Even 60 Minutes gets it wrong.

Our next training session is about room comfort.  Upcoming posts will more directly address that topic. Meanwhile, I notice that 60 Minutes has a piece on HVAC and air quality.  The piece aired Sunday, October 29th and was called ‘The Air We Breathe’. Oh my gosh, our...
Panel envy? Not any more.

Panel envy? Not any more.

I have to admit, the panel radiator is a slick product, and Air Flow doesn’t offer it.  *Sigh*.  Compared to the ‘base’ design of 220F water and 70F space, a panel radiator derates when the space temp is warmer or the water supply temperature drops.    For example,...

Let’s talk briefly about track records. How many Operating Rooms have we worked with on Ultrasuite? More than 30. How many has Price sold nationwide? Roughly 350. You probably want to know “what’s driving that?” I can think of two factors. DESIGN Other companies offer...
Price’s Ultrasuite Infuriates Strange Doctor

Price’s Ultrasuite Infuriates Strange Doctor

Price’s integrated Operating Room System, Ultrasuite, is infuriating this doctor. His hobby is a strange one.  He loves making animal shadows in the light of the boom. Price’s Ultrasuite, as you know, integrates the lights into the diffusers.  It does such a fine job,...
Is Price’s Silencer Selection Offer Too Good for You to Use It?

Is Price’s Silencer Selection Offer Too Good for You to Use It?

I’M STUMPED Look, everyone hates a sound problem after a project is wrapped up. But ignoring acoustics on the front end isn’t the right path. Why would you roll the dice, either by leaving silencers off your plan, or not getting reliable support?   YOUR...
