Efficiently operating paint booths are safe for the environment and good for business.

Retro-Commissioning

Global can make your old paint booth new again! Our team has extensive experience with older booths, and we're adept at keeping your booth operational until its last spray. Regardless of the age or condition of your booth, we can assess any issues and suggest ways to enhance airflow during both the painting and baking cycles. We have experience adding VFDs and modifying ductwork to improve temperature and CFM. We can re-light the booth with new LED fixtures and change those old gaskets.

Retro-commissioning your paint booth involves evaluating and optimizing the existing mechanical, electrical and controls systems to ensure their efficient operation. Our goal is to identify any issues, inefficiencies, or deviations in your booth. Here are the steps we follow when retro-commissioning your paint booth:

1. Assessment:
We begin by conducting a thorough assessment of your paint booth. We review the original specifications, and any maintenance records. Document the current state of your paint booth, including its layout, ventilation system, filtration units, exhaust fans, lighting, and controls.

2. Performance Testing:
Perform a series of performance tests to evaluate your paint booth's functionality. This may involve measuring airflow rates, monitoring temperature and pressure differential levels, and checking filtration efficiency. We use specialized equipment and instruments to gather accurate data and compare the results with the manufacturer’s specifications. We identify areas that require adjustment or improvement, such as inadequate ventilation or inconsistent airflow patterns.

3. System Optimization:
Based on the assessment and performance testing, develop a comprehensive plan to optimize your paint booth. This could include recalibrating control settings, replacing worn-out filters or fans, installing additional lighting fixtures, or modifying your ductwork to improve airflow distribution. Make sure to prioritize energy efficiency, worker safety, and compliance with relevant regulations during the optimization process. We document all the changes made and update your equipment manuals and maintenance procedures accordingly. We report back to you our findings and any additional recommendations.

By following these steps, we can effectively retro-commission your paint booth, enhancing its performance, energy efficiency, and safety while ensuring compliance with industry standards and regulations.
