Custom Sur-Seal Solutions for the HVAC Industry
During performance verification, you discover air leakage from the doorframe and cross member of your latest furnace design. You need to understand whether it’s a design or material issue – or both.
Our engineering team would design and conduct a test of your furnace to determine the leakage rate of your current design and discuss various component design and material options for ANSI Z.21 47-2012 compliance. Based on our findings, we will support seal redesign, explore material performance cost/benefits, and make recommendations to improve platform efficiency.
Your team is considering options to reduce the number of condensate drain tubes in your system, but need quick turnaround of prototype parts for testing.
Sur-Seal can design the new tubing system, then quickly develop your prototype in-house using actual production materials. This prototype can be installed in your system for testing, accelerating the readiness for production and product launch.
Your company is trying to reduce inventory costs, but need a reliable source of HVAC system subcomponents. You’re concerned about delivery time of system subassemblies from international suppliers.
While Sur-Seal has operations in Mexico and China to support customers’ with international sourcing needs, Sur-Seal warehousing, distribution, and customer support is based in Cincinnati, Ohio. With an on-time delivery rate of nearly 98%, we strive to ensure your factory will not sit idle waiting for subcomponents for your residential boilers, furnaces, and commercial units
A long-time Sur-Seal customer discovered air leakage from the cross member and door frame of one of their new furnace designs during performance verification to ANSI Z.21 47. Was this a design or material issue?
Sur-Seal took a methodological approach to the problem:
Sur-Seal reduced the leakage rate by 52% after testing revealed the most effective material configuration for the furnace. BONUS: The new material configuration cost less than the original
