The Berner App, a first-of-its-kind air curtain app to control architectural air curtains from a smartphone, is available now at the Google Play Store and Apple App Store.

The company also standardized its patented digital controller, the Intelliswitch™, across its product suite of air curtains in the Berner Architectural category.

Easy To Use Air Curtain Operation

Both the app and the roll-out of the Intelliswitch™ will serve to simplify and enhance the ease-of-use of air curtain operation everywhere.

They have also given the capacity to more easily integrate technologies such as wireless controllers, apps, EC motors, and other capabilities into Berner air curtains.

To further its commitment to manufacturing energy-efficient products, Berner added its patented Venturi Heater to all electric heated Architectural air curtains, with the exception of the Low-Profile series.

Mobile Application

The Berner Air Curtain App is the first mobile application to allow control of Berner air curtains from a smartphone. It allows users to program their Berner Air Curtain, change settings, and monitor usage.

It is built to work with all five designs of Berner’s Architectural Series air curtains. The Berner air curtain app requires a built-in wireless controller to be ordered along with the air curtain itself.

Berner air curtain app is variables friendly and can be used from smartphone to program and adjust its operationThe app makes operating a Berner air curtain easier than ever before as it makes programming lots of variables friendly and straightforward,” said Georgia Berner, CEO, Berner International.

The design of the Berner air curtain app was a clear choice for managing an air curtain, especially when you consider the physical location of the equipment.

An air curtain is typically mounted above your head. So, an app you can use from your smartphone to program and adjust its operation means saving yourself any trouble of climbing up on a ladder,” said Philip Thomas, Mgr., Product Development, Berner International.

Intelliswitch™ Offers Ultimate Simplicity

Designed by Berner, this patented digital controller eliminates the need to figure out, select, and price various control packages as all the options are available on it.

The IntelliswitchTM allows the end-user to program the air curtain using preset modes or a custom program.

This makes it easy to match the air curtain performance to the application. This switch is now standard on all Berner Architectural Series air curtains.

Venturi Heater & Energy Efficiency

Designed and patented by Berner, the innovative Venturi Heater design improves heated air curtain efficiencies by up to 40 percent more than other methods.

The Venturi Heater fits on the outside of the fan housing allowing air to be warmed without blocking the flow of the air stream.

It elegantly solves the issue of having to either place the heating coil in the intake causing the temperature to drop a few degrees or in the outlet nozzle, causing the airstream to be disrupted.
