What are the Common Types of AHUs?

Air Handling Units can be classified into various types depending on the application and design requirements, here are a few common types of AHUs:

Conventional Air Handling Units (Standard AHUs): are suitable for common residential and commercial buildings. These units are relatively simple in design and are mainly used to provide basic ventilation, heating and cooling functions.

Dedicated AHU: Designed for specific application scenarios, such as hospitals, laboratories, and so on. These units have higher air quality requirements and may be equipped with additional features such as high-efficiency filters and UV sterilisers.

Rooftop AHU: Usually installed on the roof of a building, this type of unit is suitable for indoor space-saving locations. These units are generally used in medium to large commercial or industrial buildings.

Modular AHU: Modular design for easy installation and maintenance. It is suitable for variable building design and can be customised according to requirements.

Dual Duct AHU: Provides separate ducts for hot and cold air and is suitable for locations where precise temperature control is required.

Different types of AHUs can be flexibly selected according to building requirements for optimal indoor air environment control.
