The air treatment units from DECACLIMA's GC series have been certified by Eurovent with the TB1 category, the highest-rated factor for thermal bridging according to the EN 1886 standard.

Achieving the TB1 category reflects DECACLIMA's commitment to innovation and reinforces its ability to undertake projects requiring high-performance, cutting-edge equipment. 

TB1 category

The thermal bridging factor, assessed for the TB1 category, measures the maximum temperature difference between the inside and outside of the unit.

In the case of units with the TB1 category, like those from DECACLIMA, minimal heat transfer occurs between the interior and exterior, preventing condensation on both internal and external surfaces. This reduces the risk of mold growth and corrosion. 

air treatment units’ performance

This offers two clear benefits for air treatment units’ performance:

  • Firstly, by preventing mold and other contaminants, the indoor air quality maintained by the system is enhanced, which is especially important in healthcare and controlled environment facilities.
  • Secondly, the TB1 category ensures the equipment is more resistant to corrosion and humidity, resulting in a longer lifespan and lower maintenance costs.

Furthermore, the high thermal insulation of the unit structure minimizes heat loss, improving energy efficiency. As a result, DECACLIMA's TB1-certified units, combined with the L1 airtightness category, optimize HVAC performance and help reduce the environmental impact of energy consumption.

TB1 certification

Eurovent's TB1 certification further demonstrates that DECACLIMA prioritizes innovation in manufacturing reliable and efficient HVAC systems.

The company's equipment is designed to meet the demanding needs of industries, such as healthcare, pharmaceuticals, food processing, and other industrial and tertiary applications.
