    Direct drive or Belt drive fans?

    I used to build automotive paint shops, so "clean" has a very high bar for me as any dirt in the paint can force a production re-run.

Ideally the cold coil would have been after the heater, but you have to play the cards you are dealt. Given the mosture I suspect all that I...

    Plenum Fan

    Have you considered the effects of the A-coil in this arrangment on your electrical components? I don't know your climatic design conditions, but if you operate close to dew-point off that coil or toss droplets (condensation drain plugs, refrigerant runs low, etc.) then the motor as well as any...
