MANUALINTRODUCTION
The free-hanging model is designed for free, visible installation
above the door.
The recessed model is designed for integration into a false
ceiling or into a cove, with the inlet opening possibly at some
distance from the unit.
The cassette model is designed for installation above a false
ceiling, with the inlet opening close to the unit and with easy
access to the unit.
1.3.2 Working
The air curtain blows out a warm air stream straight down,

•The cold air entering across the floor due to draught is
heated.
