Vehicle Movement Through the Shop
The booth should support a clean path from prep to spray to delivery or reassembly. Door approach, stall depth, lift use, masking areas, parts carts and technician walkways all affect whether the installation works during a busy production day.
Refinish Airflow Requirements
Automotive refinish work depends on stable airflow, clean intake air and exhaust that clears overspray without disturbing the painter. Make-up air, exhaust ductwork, filtration and booth pressure should be reviewed as one system rather than separate pieces.
Utility and Room Coordination
Electrical feeds, controls, compressed air, gas if present, fire protection interfaces and lighting need to be coordinated with the booth shell and surrounding rooms. Paint mixing rooms, prep stations and nearby detailing or body work areas can influence utility routing and access.
What to Confirm Before Installation
Confirm booth footprint, vehicle types, ceiling height, slab conditions, utility locations, exhaust route, make-up air location and staging space. Photos of the current shop layout help identify constraints before equipment arrives.

What information helps plan an automotive Blowtherm USA booth installation?
Helpful information includes vehicle sizes, booth drawings, shop layout, prep flow, utility locations, exhaust route, make-up air details and available staging space.

Can a booth installation include prep station or mixing room coordination?
Yes. Prep stations and paint mixing rooms often affect workflow, utility routing, ventilation planning and clearances around the booth.
What should the shop clear before installation starts?
Clear the booth footprint, vehicle path, staging area, utility access points and any overhead or wall areas needed for duct, fan or make-up air work.
