# Why Do Factory Workshops Need Ventilation and Cooling? Recommended Workshop Cooling Equipment

As the scorching heat of July arrives, with high outdoor temperatures, the factory workshops become extremely hot and stuffy. Especially in many production workshops with high-temperature and heat-generating equipment, as well as dust and irritating odors, without good cooling and ventilation equipment, the heat makes workers sweat profusely, seriously affecting production efficiency and employees’ health. At this time, a good ventilation and cooling equipment and cooling solution is particularly important.

Why do factory workshops need ventilation and cooling? First, let’s analyze the reasons why factory workshops need cooling in summer:
If staff work in high-temperature environments for long periods, their sweat glands secrete very quickly, which can quickly lead to dehydration and loss of body fluids, and in severe cases, direct heatstroke. Moreover, in high-temperature working environments, it is difficult to concentrate attention, which can easily cause losses. Low staff efficiency also makes it impossible to guarantee better product quality and progress.

2. The young main workforce of contemporary society consists of the post-90s and post-00s generations, who have relatively high demands for quality of living environment and are unwilling to work in stuffy, uncomfortable environments, which leads to high staff turnover. Workshop machines generate a large amount of heat during operation, affecting product quality. Installing ventilation and cooling equipment can control workshop temperature and improve product yield rates.
3. Factory workshops in some industries produce harmful gases such as carbon monoxide, benzene, and formaldehyde. Long-term inhalation can cause symptoms like fainting. Employees working under high temperatures for a long time face safety hazards and are prone to occupational diseases. Ventilating and cooling the workshop can provide employees with a healthy working environment and improve production efficiency.

So how should you choose products for factory workshop cooling? Guangdong environmental air conditioner manufacturers recommend the following workshop cooling equipment:
1. Workshop cooling equipment — Environmental Air Conditioner
Evaporative air coolers (environmental air conditioners) as workshop cooling equipment have the following major advantages:
1. Good air quality: Integrating ventilation, air exchange, dust removal, and cooling in one unit, it increases the oxygen content of the space and improves work efficiency, with a free choice between overall air supply or spot cooling.
2. Humidity regulation: Adjusts humidity in workplaces that need increased air humidity.
3. Strong cooling effect: In southern regions, it generally achieves a cooling effect of 4℃~12℃; in hot and dry regions, cooling can reach 5℃~15℃, and it cools rapidly.
4. Low power consumption, only 1 kWh per hour: When installing a central air conditioner versus an evaporative air cooler over the same area, the power consumption is only 1/10 of that of the central air conditioner.
5. Low investment, high efficiency: Compared with installing a central air conditioner under the same conditions and area, the Yaoxian environmental air conditioner is 1/5 of the total investment of a central air conditioner.
6. Large air volume, long air delivery distance: The maximum air volume per hour is 18,000 to 60,000 cubic meters, selectable according to customer requirements, with high air pressure and long-distance air delivery.
7. Stable performance, reliable quality: Uses a 100mm-thick “5090 evaporative filter pad” with strong cooling capacity, low noise, and high efficiency.
8. Energy-saving and environmentally friendly: Green and low-carbon, pollution-free, energy-saving, and eco-friendly.
Many factory workshops have large areas, and ordinary cooling equipment can hardly achieve a cooling effect. Solutions that achieve results while considering cost are indeed rare. Currently, the most widely used is the environmental air conditioner solution. There are many design options for environmental air conditioners, including direct-blowing design, duct air delivery, overall cooling solutions, and regional or fixed-point designs. The solution design must also be combined with the customer’s own needs to achieve better cooling results. Workshop cooling equipment should be used in combination, such as large industrial fans with environmental air conditioners, as well as solutions combined with negative pressure fans. These are also the preferred cooling equipment for large factory workshops.

2. Workshop cooling equipment — “Fan + Cooler Combination”
Environmental air conditioner + large industrial fan combination cooling (also called the “fan-cooler complementary” combination):
The fan-cooler combination is a new, money-saving cooling solution innovated on the basis of overall cooling plus spot cooling with environmental air conditioners. It combines two workshop cooling equipment types with distinct advantages — evaporative environmental air conditioners and large industrial fans. The air conditioner delivers a continuous stream of clean, cool, fresh air directly into the workshop, while the large industrial fan’s three-dimensional breeze circulation system evenly distributes the cool air indoors, achieving overall ventilation and cooling of the factory workshop and reducing the material cost of air conditioning ducts. It is an excellent low-cost cooling solution for large-area factories.

3. Workshop cooling equipment — Energy-Saving Air Conditioner
The energy-saving air conditioning system uses air-conditioned cooling to perform internal air circulation in an enclosed environment, thereby achieving overall cooling of the enclosed space. Its advantage is that we can precisely control environmental humidity. This is especially true for clean, dust-free workshops requiring constant temperature and humidity with very high production environment requirements. In such cases, installing an energy-saving air conditioner is the only way to meet workshop cooling and production process needs.
The energy-saving air conditioner adopts an intelligent control mode. Key components such as the unit’s compressor, supply fan, thermal expansion valve, four-way reversing valve, hot gas bypass valve, and control computer are all products from imported brand manufacturers. It abandons traditional dehumidification methods and offers stable operation, high efficiency, and a long service life.
The sturdy metal casing with corrosion-resistant environmentally friendly galvanized coating provides excellent sealing and corrosion protection. The unit’s insulation material is flame-retardant, with complete unit control functions, multiple safety protection measures, power phase-sequence protection and phase-failure protection, and automatic restart after a power outage. Its powerful features enable regulation of the unit’s cooling, heating, dehumidification, and humidification, with reliable performance, easy operation, and simple maintenance.
