WHO WE ARE & WHAT WE DO Recognizing that energy savings was becoming a top priority in today s environment, Dan Lambert established Envira-North Systems Ltd. in 2003. A spin-off from the knowledge and success of Sun-North Systems Ltd., Envira-North has grown on the strength of our after sales service. Envira-North Systems Ltd. has recognized a worldwide need to reduce energy consumption by contributing to the effectiveness of heating, cooling and ventilation systems. Our products and systems enable your building to perform better; save on heating, cooling, mechanical operating costs and provide a healthier environment for the occupants of the structure. Simply put, Envira-North Systems designs, manufactures and sells the most innovative ventilation solutions on the market today. Our mission is to continually provide quality, cost effective ventilation solutions that improve energy consumption and increase comfort levels for the occupants of large structures. We take pride in our reputation and stand behind our products and services! 3
SYSTEM OVERVIEW Envira-North Systems Ltd. is a manufacturer and distributor of energy efficient ventilation products. Our line of fans, turbines and curtains can improve the level of comfort in a building while lowering energy consumption. The products of Envira-North are uniquely efficient; but did you know that all of these products work together to create one exceptionally effective system? No matter your location worldwide, our system is designed to maximize the performance of your building. Custom designed for each application, we utilize our products as components to develop a system that not only provides a solution but maximizes saving potential to increase your return on investment. Climate control in any building is always a challenging task. Trying to cool people can be especially difficult and expensive. Utilizing Altra-Air HVLS fan technology, creates a non disruptive breeze that provides a natural cooling effect for the occupants below. Even better yet, when supplemental cooling is already available in your space our Altra-Air HVLS fans maximize performance and allow the operator to increase the temperature set point and generate significant energy savings. 4
In areas with exessive heat, circulation of warm air will not provide any relief; exhausting hot, stale contaminated air is now necessary. Bringing in fresh air at ground level, through open doors, windows or louvres and exhausting the unwanted air through our Hurricane Turbines TM, allows the Altra-Air HVLS fans to effectively provide cooling. Altra-Air Fans Not every building is the same as all spaces face unique challenges. Separating and containing spaces without negatively effecting the process underneath can be very beneficial to the building operator. Preventing the undesirable air from migrating with our line of industrial curtains allows each product to concentrate on a specific task to maximize its performance and minimize capital investment. When heating is the challenge, our systems adapt. Simply close the louvres to limit air ingress, roll up the industrial curtains to allow process heat to migrate and damper Hurricane Turbines TM to minimize exhaust; allow the process heat to migrate and our Altra-Air fans to distribute it evenly throughout the space. In some cases, supplemental heat isn t even needed. Hurricane TM Turbines Industrial Curtains 5
THE JAZZ FAN - OUR NEWEST ADDITION COLOR SELECTION The sleek, ultra-modern design allows for a magnitude of customizable finishes from vibrant red to brilliant chrome and every imaginable color in between, enhancing any sophisticate environment. Jazz Fan s unique blade design doesn t just look good; it deploys the same modulated blade technique utilized in advanced stealth helicopters. From showrooms to restaurants and atriums to office spaces, the Jazz Fan s creative touch of ambiance enhances the comforts and aethestics of each space. MOVING AIR WITH STYLE Jazz Fan s unique blade design makes it possible to move more air; quietly and in style. Jazz moves 45,000 CFM with a max noise level of 39dBA. Covering an area of 260 m 2 (2,800 ft 2 ), the Jazz fan meets the highest of industry standards in all categories of form and function. 6
JAZZ FAN S UNIQUE BLADE DESIGN Traditional airfoils (or blades) are linear in design and produce greater noise at a particular frequency. Using varying points on the leading edge of the blade spreads the noise or acoustic signature over a greater range of frequencies, virtually eliminating any noise. As a fan rotates, the tip of a blade spins faster than the fixed point or centre creating pockets of minimal air movement directly underneath the fan. The Jazz Fan blade design tackles this challenge with a varying degree angle of attack, never before seen in our industry. Ranging from 6 (tip) to 14 at its greatest point, the Jazz Fan diminishes the resistance against each blade maximizing air movement and minimizing power consumption. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Number of Airfoils: 5 Diameter: 3 m (10 ) Airfoils: Fiberglass Filled Polypropylene Air Movement: 21,238 l/s (45,000 CFM) Weight: 37 kgs (82 lbs) Rotations Per Minute: 120 (max) Area of Influence: 260 m² (2,800 ft²) Volts: 110 or 220 VAC +/- 10% Watts: 468 (max) Controls: On-board / Remote Wireless Options 7
ALTRA-AIR HVLS FANS OVERVIEW Altra-Air HVLS fans blanket a very large area with constantly moving air to create an expansive comfort zone. As a result, the big ceiling fan can create an evaporative cooling effect of three to four degrees Celsius throughout the facility. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Fans range from 2.4 to 7.3 m (8 to 24 ) in diameter. Capable of moving nearly 188,000 l/s (397,701 CFM). Operates on 0.75 to 1.5 kw (1 HP to 2 HP). Variable frequency drive provides soft start and full variable speed operation. Creates a non-disruptive airflow. Our largest 7.3 m (24 ) Altra- Air fan consumes less power than the average hairdryer. BENEFITS OF ALTRA-AIR FANS Quiet, efficient operation, no annoying high speed circulating or exhaust fans. Virtually maintenance free (recommended inspection every 20,000 hours) Inexpensive to operate. Costs approximately 6 cents per hour for one fan at 0.75 kw (1 HP). Greatly reduce the recovery time when overhead doors are open with a constant flow of air throughout the space. Provide a constant even temperature from floor to ceiling and wall to wall. Will minimize the need for expensive duct work in new construction for both heating and air conditioning systems. A comfortable workplace environment increases productivity and decreases absenteeism. 8
OUR BLADE ADVANTAGE Our blades outperform all conventional airfoils. They accomplish this by: Offering stall angles as high as 22. Always stalling gradually. Eliminating span-wise pumping; the primary cause of efficiency loss in all rotating systems. Eliminating tip stalling; the primary cause of blade noise and damaging vibration. Lowering noise by offering a blade with hyper-stability which also lowers vibrations which cause wear and tear on the blades and drive train.

ECOPOWER TURBINE VENTILATORS In cold climates, heat loss is a major concern. Optional dampers are available to provide operators with the ability to stop air flow and keep heat inside the facility. Ecopower utilizes an electronic commutating (EC) motor installed in the head of the ventilator to enable motorized boost during periods of low wind speed or special ventilation needs. The ecopower ventilator has no motor or blades in the throat of the vent. This is extremely important as research has shown that any obstruction in the throat of a wind ventilator will greatly decrease vent performance under wind load. The bearing system of the motor becomes the bearing system of the ventilator. This means that the vent can be free spinning under wind load or power activated as conditions require. 13
