Central Clothes Dryer Exhaust

Central laundry facilities in multi-story, multi-family and mixed-use buildings or coin laundries often have long exhaust ducts serving multiple clothes dryers that produce lint. These systems typically operate less than 50% of the day in average. Yet, most central dryer exhaust systems run at full speed 24/7.

A demand-controlled dryer exhaust system can convert uncontrolled exhaust rates into energy savings - which could amount to $100s per dryer.

ENERVEX offers a wide range of energy-saving, aesthetically pleasing, flexible and quiet solutions for spot exhaust in virtually every type of new or retrofit application - from sports arenas to hotels and resorts.

These building exhaust solutions adjust automatically to the energy output demands of your application. If no dryers are running, the system operates at a very low speed. Once a dryer starts, the fan kicks up pressure inside the duct. The system senses that pressure and begins increasing ventilation speed.

ENERVEX has seen demand-controlled dryer exhaust systems helped customers achieve:

• Up to 50% reduction in fan energy consumption
• Up to 50% reduction in the cost of conditioned air being exhausted
• +/-2% accuracy from set point vs. +/-20% accuracy in alternative solutions

ENERVEX is behind some of the world’s highest-profile buildings including: Burj Khalifa Tower (Dubai), Americana-at-Brand (Glendale, CA), Park Potomac Place (Potomac, MD) and The Platinum (New York, NY).
