Things To Consider When Conditioning a Natatorium
Natatoriums have historically posed a difficult environment for the conventional HVAC system. Building design, climate, usage, etc. all contribute to the challenge. AC Quest has five or more different dehumidifier design concepts each engineered to optimize comfort without jeopardizing efficiency, structural integrity and most importantly, occupant health.
The air in your pool space should be as clean and fresh as the air outdoors.Energy recovery ventilation dehumidifies the air in the room and keeps it fresh.Stale moist air collects near the ceiling and is exhausted through the unit. Out door air is (pre) heated and supplied near the windows and walls, not over the poolwater.You have to consider many variables when designing the climate conditions of an indoor pool, or natatorium space. Dry Bulb Temperature - When you step out of the pool, to avoid a chill, you want the air temperature to be slightly warmer than the water temperature Relative Humidity (Rh) - To avoid mold & mildew, you want to keep the space between 50-60% RH Differential pressure - Careful consideration to the air pressure in relation to adjacent spaces and the exterior of the building is critical. The natatorium should be in a negative pressure at all times.Activity Factor - Air Distribution - Pool Water Heating -
