    HVAC mechanical systems. The only thing consistent about today’s classroom is its ability to constantly change. With this in mind, Trane’s classroom unit ventilator is designed to support today’s changing environment. Its blow-thru design provides freeze protection, sound attenuation, and safety.
  • Page 8: Operating Environment

    The outside air/return air damper is a one piece, linkage free design resulting in a superior air-tight seal. Control Options Trane unit ventilators are available with a variety of control options, including factory-mounted controls and customer- supplied terminal interface (CSTI).
