What is an Air Curtain?

It saves businesses money while keeping employees & customers comfortable.

An Air Curtain goes over any door way and creates an invisible stream of air that keeps your energy and comfort inside and the elements outside.

An AIR CURTAIN is the ONLY door that is both open and closed at the same time, even sealing itself around penetrating objects. The air curtain uses a wall of air generated by specialized fans and directional discharge to separate areas of pressure or temperature differential.

AES Air Curtains generally pay for themselves in energy savings within the first three years

Maintain the temperature comfort level by preventing a blast of cold air every time the door opens.

Increase safety by providing unobstructed entrances resulting in clear sight lines and dry floors for people and product movement

Save energy cost by keeping in either heat in the winter months or air conditioned air in the summer months

How Much Will I Save?

While every business will see different results, AES Air Curtains generally pay for themselves in terms of energy savings within the first three years. So much so that our clients often mention in their testimonials that their Air Curtain saves them money!

For further proof, we have a year-to-year comparison of a 40,000-square-foot Oil Treatment Facility. Before they had an Air Curtain, they closed the door after each forklift exit or entry, once they had installed an Air Curtain, they began to leave the door open for 16 hours each day regardless of the outside temperature.

Despite the increase in exposure to the elements, according to their Atco Gas statement, they saved 23% year over year by installing a single Air Curtain.

Who Uses Air Curtains?

Restaurants, lumber mills, grocery stores, recreational facilities – the list is almost endless! From small shops to large factories, independent businesses to national chains, AES Air Curtains are used by any business that wants to reap the benefits!

For more than two decades, AES has been providing the highest-quality Air Curtains to Canadian businesses. Installed in every province and territory across Canada, more than 2000+ AES Air Curtains have been sold to a wide variety of businesses.

How do Air Curtains prevent pests?

While an Air Curtain’s gentle stream of air is pleasant to those who pass under it, to an insect, it’s essentially impenetrable!

Flies, mosquitoes, and other flying pests aren’t able to get past the steady stream of air – helping your business stay sanitary and bug-free. Unlike vinyl strips or a door, an Air Curtain works continuously and keeps lines of sight completely unobstructed.

Restaurants, bakeries, food processing plants, and more, all rely on AES Air Curtains as a vital sanitation barrier.

How Can an Air Curtain Help a Warehouse?

Warehouses rely on massive doors to accommodate large vehicles and machinery vital to their business. But each time these doors open and close, they leave a large amount of square footage open to the elements.

With an AES Air Curtain, your warehouse is protected! Even over extremely large industrial doors, an Air Curtain keeps the outside outside, keeping your business virtually unaffected.

Along with energy savings, an Air Curtain benefits a warehouse’s safety – improving sight lines and protecting employees from the elements.

How Can an Air Curtain Help Retail?

If your clients are shivering from the cold or sweating in the summer heat, they won’t want to spend very long in your business!

Combatting the weather with your heater and A/C is a losing battle – and a costly one! Instead, you can rely on an AES Air Curtain to ensure that no matter the outside temperature, your business stays comfortable.

Instead of losing money each time the door opens, an Air Curtain prevents outside air, dust, and pests from entering. This keeps your energy costs down and your staff and clients comfortable!
