Paint booth exhaust ductwork for offshore and LNG modules
Offshore and LNG module paint booths need exhaust ductwork planned around large parts, long building routes and connected make-up air systems. Double D Mechanical installs and modifies exhaust ductwork with attention to fan placement, discharge paths, cleanouts, supports and service access.
Discuss your installationDuct Routes Around Heavy Fabrication
Exhaust ductwork may need to pass around cranes, roof steel, pipe racks, mezzanines and production aisles. Routing should protect module handling paths while keeping duct supports and access points practical.
Fan and Stack Coordination
Fan locations and discharge points affect duct length, structural support, roof work and maintenance access. Planning should consider how the exhaust system connects to the booth and how service personnel will reach fan components.
Booth Balance With Supply Air
Exhaust changes should be reviewed with air make-up equipment and building pressure. Large module booths can be sensitive to restricted filters, open doors and workpieces that disrupt expected airflow.
Cleanouts and Filter Access
Duct cleanouts, filter sections, dampers and transition points need access after installation. Service locations should not be blocked by stored modules, platforms or other equipment.
Frequently asked questions
When should exhaust ductwork be reviewed?
Review it before new booth installation, booth relocation, fan replacement, roof work, airflow problems or changes to make-up air equipment.
What building details matter for duct routing?
Roof structure, wall openings, crane paths, ceiling height, nearby utilities, platform locations and exterior discharge options all matter.
Can ductwork affect booth performance?
Yes. Restrictions, poor transitions, fan issues and unbalanced replacement air can affect airflow through the booth.
What should be ready for a site visit?
Have booth drawings, fan data, duct photos, roof access details, maintenance concerns and any recent airflow observations available.
