Spray-Tech/Junair Industrial Paint Booth Installation
Industrial Spray-Tech/Junair paint booth installation has to support larger parts, heavier handling, longer spray cycles, and more complicated building connections than a small refinish bay. Double D Mechanical focuses on the mechanical installation details that help the booth fit the plant, not just the floor plan.

Planning for Large Workpieces
Industrial booths may handle fabricated frames, enclosures, equipment panels, trailers, or other parts that require carts, cranes, forklifts, or rail movement. The booth location should protect traffic lanes, leave space for staging, and keep operators from working around blocked doors or tight corners.
Mechanical Fit in the Building
A booth installation can be limited by roof steel, overhead utilities, existing duct runs, floor slope, pits, drains, and nearby process equipment. Reviewing these constraints before equipment setting helps avoid field changes that interfere with exhaust routing or service access.
Ventilation and Process Balance
Industrial finishing needs consistent air movement across the part and away from the spray zone. Exhaust ductwork, fan location, intake air, and make-up air all influence booth balance. The installation plan should also consider how booth airflow affects adjacent welding, blasting, assembly, or shipping areas.
Useful Site Visit Inputs
A productive site visit starts with practical information.
- Largest part dimensions, weights, and handling method.
- Desired production path before and after coating.
- Available electrical, gas, compressed air, and roof access details.
- Known shutdown windows and other trades working in the same area.
Frequently asked questions
What makes an industrial booth installation different from a refinish booth?
Industrial booths often involve larger parts, heavier material handling, longer duct runs, more make-up air, and more coordination with plant production flow.
Can a Spray-Tech/Junair booth be placed near other processes?
It can be evaluated, but the plan needs to account for air movement, overspray control, traffic, heat sources, and maintenance space around both the booth and nearby equipment.
What information helps with exhaust planning?
Fan location, roof or wall construction, discharge direction, nearby intakes, duct routing constraints, and the booth drawings all help define the exhaust plan.
Who should be involved before installation starts?
Facility engineering, maintenance, production, safety, electrical, fire protection, roofing, and any material handling contractor should be aligned before equipment setting.
How much clearance should be reviewed?
Clearance should be reviewed around doors, filters, lights, fans, duct access, control panels, and the route used to move parts into and out of the booth.
