VanAir Design announced a partnership benefiting construction projects in Western Canada. VanAir Design will now supply its VanAir Door to Metrie and its customers to fulfill commercial, single-family, and multi-family interior door projects from British Columbia to Manitoba.
Partnership and product details
The VanAir Door is a passive ventilation solution for applications like conference rooms, offices, server rooms, bedrooms, laundry closets, bathrooms, and mechanical and media rooms. Featuring linear slots staggered on opposing faces, the VanAir Door creates an integrated airflow channel to provide increased air circulation and improved sound privacy. Offering the unique VanAir Door in Western Canada enhances Metrie’s ability to provide innovations to its network of dealers, designers, contractors and builders.
Improved ventilation of interior spaces reduces air pollutants like carbon dioxide and volatile organic compounds, which can lead to respiratory illnesses, poor sleep and breathing disorders. Better ventilation also balances air pressure and temperature throughout a building; prevents heat buildup in laundry, media and mechanical rooms; and helps dissipate humidity to prevent mold and bacteria growth in bathrooms. The VanAir ventilated door can be installed in a wide variety of interior environments, including commercial spaces, single and multifamily residential housing, as well as hospitality, healthcare and institutional facilities.
