What is a commercial air curtain?
A commercial air curtain is an HVAC device designed to prevent the interchange of indoor and outdoor air through large entryways by creating a continuous airflow barrier. The Berner ARC16-2084A-1 is a high-capacity, unheated air barrier installed above large doors, typically in foodservice or retail environments, to improve climate control and reduce energy costs. It features two 1 hp motors supporting reliable, consistent airflow over an 84-inch span for mounted heights up to 16 feet. Used primarily in high-traffic entrance areas, this model maintains indoor temperature stability and enhances entryway sanitation without additional heating elements, making it suitable for moderate to high-volume commercial buildings such as restaurants, supermarkets, and warehouses.
