What Are The Difficulties In Assessing The Performance Of Ventilator Blower

To determine the efficiency of a ventilator blower can be a challenging process. In fact, over 57% of these devices are being underutilized or they not energy efficient. It’s through this assessment that one will be able to get a deeper insight on the performance of the blower.

Some of the common difficulties you are likely to face while doing these assessments include:

The non-availability of the blower specification data; all Leesii blowers and fans come with a user manual. In most cases, consumers do not keep this important document. Or if they have then they are not stored in systematically; you can spend one week searching for these documents. Any assessment should be done with reference to the information from the manufacturer. When you don’t have this document, then chances that you will be approximating your values will be high. Get one from Leesii in case you have misplaced it or it get damaged.

Determining the exact velocity; this is yet, another challenge especially in situations where the duct was installed in inaccessible areas. In such situations, you can measure that velocity pressure in the center of the duct. The value can be multiplied by a factor of 0.9. If you can access the duct, the better.

In accurate calibration of the measuring devices; you must use the recommended calibration procedures to ensure that the instruments are calibrated as per the acceptable standards. Avoid the use of various correction factor to compensate for the inaccurate calibrations.

Variation in parameters; measurements should be taken when the system is in stable condition. In case there is a wide variation in the parameters being to be measured than the assessment becomes unreliable.

As a rule of thumb, in case you can’t go about this process yourself, then it is advisable to hire a technician. Contact us today for a comprehensive ventilator blower performance assessment.
