Sound dampening insulation may be positioned between the first and second compartments. First and second evaporators may be positioned within the cabinet so that: air from the first room passes through the first evaporator before exhausting back to the first room; and air from the second room passes through the second evaporator before exhausting back to the second room. The TC unit may be or include a vertical terminal air conditioning (“VTAC”) unit.

An air conditioner indoor unit is provided. The air conditioner indoor unit includes: a base module, having a base part which is arranged with a fan motor; a heat exchange module having a heat exchanger and a connection pipeline for connecting the heat exchanger to an air conditioner outdoor unit; the heat exchanger and the connection pipeline are arranged in such a way that in a mounted state, the heat exchanger and the connection pipeline are entirely located at a front side of the base module; an air and water duct module having an air duct assembly; the air duct assembly is suitable to be entirely disassembled from the base part without disassembling the fan motor in the base part. During mounting, pre-assembly is first performed and then general assembly is performed; in such manner, the time needed to assemble the whole unit may be reduced.

A heating ventilating and cooling (HVAC) system includes an outdoor air chase having a first end and a second end. The second end of the outdoor air chase is fluidly coupled to a condenser compartment at a location to receive outside air from the condenser compartment and the first end is fluidly coupled to the return air compartment. The outdoor air chase has a conduit through the outdoor air chase. The system includes a configurable flow regulating plate disposed in the outdoor air chase member across the conduit or otherwise across the outdoor airflow that has a plurality of discharge apertures. Initially, the plurality of discharge apertures is covered by a plurality of knockout panels. Each panel is removably secured to the plate. In installation, the installer removes as many of the knockout panels as required for a desired flow of outdoor air. Other systems and methods are presented.

The TC unit may be or include a vertical terminal air conditioning (“VTAC”) unit.

An air handling device includes a plurality of tunnels defining a plurality of separate air flow pathways. At least one tunnel of the plurality of tunnels is an active tunnel and at least one tunnel of the plurality of tunnels is a redundant tunnel. The air handling device further includes a first air select at a first end of the plurality of tunnels and a second air select on a second end of the plurality of tunnels, wherein the first end is opposite to the second end. The air handling device also includes a plurality of dampers within each of the first and second air selects, wherein the plurality of dampers are configured to change an air flow therein to block air flow through the active tunnel and allow air flow through the redundant tunnel.

Provided are a flexible insulated air duct and a modular flexible insulated air-duct system; the flexible insulated air duct includes an air-duct main body (1); the air-duct main body (1) includes an inner air-duct layer (5) and a heat-insulating layer (4) integrally formed on the inner air-duct layer (5); the inner air-duct layer (5) is arranged inside the heat-insulating layer (4l), and the heat-insulating layer (4) is a rubber/plastic material. The modular flexible insulated air-duct system made by assembling a main air duct (7), a branched air duct (8), and a connecting air duct (9) may be rapidly connected on-site using a zip fastener to form an air-duct system having any configuration.

A ventilator includes a housing having at least one opening formed therein. The housing has a plurality of sides including a first side and a second side and a modular duct connector having a through hole for connection with a duct. The modular duct connector is connectable to the at least one opening of the housing in at least a first configuration and a second configuration. In the first configuration, the through hole is arranged at the first side of the housing and in the second configuration, the through hole is arranged at the second side of the housing.

Aspects of the present disclosure include a primary air chamber configured to receive primary air, an induced air chamber configured to receive secondary air, a heating coil disposed in the induced air chamber, wherein the heating coil is removable from the induced air chamber without disassembling at least a portion of the induced air chamber, and the heating coil does not receive the primary air, a fan disposed in the induced air chamber, wherein the fan is configured to blow the secondary air received via the induced air chamber toward the heating coil and the heating coil heats the secondary air.

A building system includes a building space defined by a structural ceiling and a flooring of a building, and a ceiling system. The ceiling system includes an air permeable suspended ceiling arranged below the structural ceiling, and a plenum space is formed between the suspended ceiling and the structural ceiling and a flooring space is formed between the flooring and the suspended ceiling. A plurality of partition wall sections is arranged in the plenum space extending between the structural ceiling and the suspended ceiling and forms a plurality of plenum modules distributed across the plenum space. Each plenum module includes equipment.
