Aluminum Equipment Screens

Commercial buildings may need these louvered equipment screens for devices that support HVAC, waste management, water supply and other mechanical equipment for several reasons. They help businesses promote a more favorable image and enhance customer appeal by concealing these items from public view. The screens also protect expensive mechanical machinery from severe weather, vandalism, animal and pest invasions and other hazards without blocking airflow.

Additionally, some municipalities have developed and implemented building codes requiring the concealment of various mechanical equipment types. Installing HVAC screens can help businesses avoid costly noncompliance fines.

Many mechanical equipment screen system designs are entirely customizable to a specific application. Several examples of the most popular base panel styles include:

• Solid screens: Solid equipment screens obstruct visibility and create vision barriers from every angle.
• Semi-private screens: These designs limit visibility while providing the appropriate ventilation.
• Alternating screens: Alternating panel styles ensure proper ventilation and concealment while creating a sleek, modern look.
• Louvered screens: Louvered equipment screen systems consist of panel styles slightly angled to allow airflow with limited visibility.

Some of the benefits mechanical equipment screens offer for rooftop or ground applications include:

• Aesthetic appeal: These screens keep mechanical equipment from becoming an eyesore that detracts from a commercial property’s appearance.
• Protection: Rooftop screening equipment can help prevent damage from conditions like rain, wind and hail.
• Compartmentalization: Screens can separate mechanical systems and equipment, creating more privacy.
• Airflow: Mechanical equipment screens conceal machinery without inhibiting airflow or sunlight exposure.
• Strength: Screens could enhance a commercial or industrial building’s structural integrity.
• Compliance: Screens can help construction professionals, building owners and facility managers adhere to building codes and regulations.
