Booth Exhaust System Installation and Service

A booth exhaust system removes overspray, dust, vapors or process air from a controlled finishing area and sends it through the proper duct, fan and discharge path. Double D Mechanical installs, relocates and services booth exhaust systems with attention to airflow, filtration, make-up air, roof routing and service access.

Capture at the Source

The exhaust system has to match the booth style, filter arrangement and work being performed. Paint booths, prep stations and powder booths each need airflow that supports capture without pulling contamination into the work area or disrupting application quality.

Ductwork and Fan Placement

Duct routing affects pressure loss, cleanout access, structural support, roof penetrations and service work. Fan location should be planned with vibration, maintenance clearance, weather exposure and discharge direction in mind.

Make-Up Air Balance

Exhaust cannot be treated separately from replacement air. When booth exhaust exceeds available make-up air, the building may pull from doors, cracks or adjacent departments, changing booth performance and creating comfort issues.

Relocation and Retrofit Work

Existing exhaust systems may need modification when a booth is moved, extended, repaired or connected to new equipment. The review should include duct condition, fan capacity, filter loading, controls, roof curb location and conflicts with other building systems.

Site Information to Provide

Useful details include booth drawings, fan and motor data, duct layout, filter type, roof access, make-up air equipment information, photos of current exhaust components and notes on any airflow complaints or production changes.

Project questions

Frequently asked questions

What are common parts of a booth exhaust system?

Typical components include filters, plenums, ductwork, dampers, exhaust fans, stacks, roof curbs, supports, controls and cleanout access points.

Can exhaust ductwork be reused during a booth move?

Sometimes. Existing ductwork must be checked for size, condition, route, support, access and compatibility with the new booth location.

Why does fan access matter?

Fans need inspection and service for belts, bearings, motors, vibration, buildup and electrical components. Poor access can make routine work harder than necessary.

What causes poor booth exhaust performance?

Restricted filters, duct buildup, damaged dampers, fan problems, undersized ductwork, poor replacement air or layout changes can all affect performance.
