Rapid Engineering for HVAC units and fans
HVAC cabinets, fan housings, guards and sheet metal panels often move through powder or liquid coating before final equipment assembly. Double D Mechanical installs, relocates and services air make-up, booth exhaust, powder coating and oven connections around that production flow.

Sheet Metal Parts Before Assembly
Finishing layout should match the way cabinets, panels, fan housings and guards are racked, hung or carted before final assembly. Open panels need different spacing than boxed housings, and the line should allow operators to reach bends, louvers and edges without fighting airflow.
- Confirm panel sizes, hanging points, cart widths and rack spacing.
- Plan movement from fabrication to prep, coating, cure and assembly.
- Keep touch-up and inspection space clear of exhaust openings and door swings.
Air Make-Up Near Booths And Ovens
Rapid Engineering air make-up units can support booth and oven areas by replacing exhausted air and helping manage building pressure. Placement should consider intake quality, heated discharge location, roof or wall penetrations, filter access and proximity to operators.
Powder Line And Cure Connections
HVAC component finishing may include powder booths, conveyor cure ovens, smaller cure ovens, paint mixing rooms or open-face booths. Double D Mechanical coordinates gas or electrical service, exhaust ductwork, controls, lighting and interlocks so each piece of equipment fits the production sequence.
Relocation Within Active Plants
When finishing equipment moves around an active assembly plant, the practical questions are clearances, shutdown timing, utility disconnects, reusable ductwork and future maintenance reach. Photos, drawings and part flow notes help reduce surprises before field work begins.
Frequently asked questions
What should be considered for HVAC cabinet coating equipment?
Cabinet size, panel handling, rack spacing, cure requirements, booth opening size, exhaust routing and air replacement all affect the mechanical layout.
Can an air make-up unit serve both booth balance and operator comfort?
It can contribute to both, but the discharge location and capacity need to be reviewed with the exhaust system, building ventilation and process temperature needs.
What makes fan housings and guards different from flat panels?
They create deeper surfaces, corners and shadow areas, so fixture spacing, coating access and airflow around the part deserves more attention than a flat sheet layout.
What information helps plan a relocation?
Equipment drawings, current duct routes, utility disconnect points, ceiling heights, production schedule, photos and the intended new part flow are the most useful starting points.
