Send an InquiryThe Greater Toronto Area (GTA) presents one of the most demanding environmental operating profiles in North America for commercial building envelopes and industrial facilities. With winter ambient temperatures frequently plummeting to -20°C (-4°F) accompanied by high gusting winds off Lake Ontario, commercial entryways, distribution center bay doors, and cold storage facilities experience massive thermal leakage. Unprotected doorways suffer from intense stack effect and wind pressure forces that draw icy outdoor air deep into conditioned spaces.
An industrial air curtain (also known as an air door or thermal fly fan) creates an invisible continuous aerodynamic barrier across an open doorway. By discharging a controlled stream of high-velocity laminar airflow at precise nozzle discharge angles, air curtains dynamically offset differential pressure, preventing outdoor cold air infiltration during winter while stopping conditioned indoor heat from dissipating outward.
To successfully seal a doorway against severe wind pressure in the Toronto market, an air curtain must achieve a calculated terminal velocity at the finished floor line. The aerodynamic jet stream must maintain structural integrity across the entire height of the opening without breaking down into turbulent eddies.
Our engineered air curtains utilize precision double-inlet centrifugal blowers and dynamically balanced external rotor motors to generate continuous laminar air jets. The core fluid dynamics governing our design focus on three fundamental parameters:
By engineering custom copper-wound AC single-phase and 3-phase induction motors in-house, Delco provides the precise shaft torque and continuous RPM stability required to maintain uninterrupted velocity profiles even during extreme voltage fluctuations across commercial building grids.
Tailored solutions meeting specific regional operational challenges from Downtown Toronto retail corridors to Brampton logistics centers.
High-traffic entrances in Downtown Toronto, financial office towers, and PATH network retail spaces require low-noise (dB<55), aesthetically integrated heated air curtains that maintain lobby comfort without disrupting interior architectural aesthetics.
Massive distribution warehouses around Pearson Airport, Brampton, and Mississauga feature 16-foot to 24-foot overhead doors open constantly for trucks. High-velocity 575V 3-phase industrial air doors prevent massive heat loss, floor icing, and fogging.
Food processing facilities and refrigerated warehouses (operating down to -25°C) rely on non-heated sanitizing air barriers to eliminate warm air moisture infiltration, preventing hazardous ice formation on freezer doors and complying with CFIA standards.
Navigating energy regulations and building compliance in Ontario requires air curtain equipment that meets stringent performance standards. Key regional market drivers include:
Under the updated Ontario Building Code Supplemental Standard SB-10, building owners are pressured to reduce envelope energy intensity. Air curtains certified in accordance with AMCA Publication 220 are officially recognized as building envelope thermal barriers, allowing architects and mechanical contractors in Toronto to eliminate costly glass entry vestibules, expanding usable lobby floor area while satisfying carbon emissions reduction targets.
New commercial developments in the City of Toronto must comply with the Toronto Green Standard (TGS) Tier 1 to Tier 4 greenhouse gas performance metrics. Our EC (Electronically Commutated) high-efficiency air curtain blowers integrate variable-speed ECM motors that reduce electrical power consumption by up to 65% compared to traditional PSC motors, directly earning points toward TGS compliance and LEED Gold/Platinum certifications.
All air curtain drive units and motors exported to Ontario and the wider Canadian market must comply with Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) standards. Our motors are built with Class H copper magnet wire, built-in thermal overload protection, and dual-frequency 60Hz windings certified to meet CSA C22.2 No. 113 and UL 507 standards, ensuring seamless inspection approval by the Electrical Safety Authority (ESA) in Ontario.

With over five decades of continuous manufacturing excellence since 1974, Delco Fans Pvt. Ltd. has established itself as an authoritative global manufacturer of fractional horsepower electric motors, specialized geared drives, and high-performance centrifugal air movement blowers.
Unlike trading vendors or catalog assemblers, every component—from lamination stamping, precision shaft grinding, and automated copper wire winding to dynamic rotor balancing—is executed in-house at our Thane manufacturing facility.
Every air curtain motor and blower undergoes rigorous routine electrical testing, winding resistance verification, insulation breakdown testing, dynamic air balance checks, and locked-rotor thermal rise analysis prior to export.
We work directly from OEM technical drawings to customize shaft profiles, mounting flanges, lead wire harnesses, double-inlet scroll housing dimensions, and dual-voltage windings (115V/575V 60Hz) specifically for the Canadian HVAC market.
Due to Southern Ontario's long heating season (October through April), commercial facilities typically achieve full energy payback within 12 to 18 months. By stopping warm interior air from escaping open doors, gas and electric heating costs are reduced substantially.
Yes. Industrial warehouses and manufacturing plants in Ontario frequently operate on 575-Volt 3-Phase electrical distribution. Delco specifically engineers heavy-duty induction motors with 575V/60Hz windings compliant with Canadian Electrical Code requirements.
Yes. Under OBC SB-10 and ASHRAE Standard 90.1, air curtains tested and certified in accordance with AMCA 220 are approved as a fully compliant building envelope exception to traditional entrance vestibules.
High-rise office towers in Downtown Toronto experience strong stack effect in winter, pulling cold air into ground-floor doors. Delco air curtains feature adjustable angular nozzles (0° to 20° outward deflection) and multi-speed or VFD inverter-duty motors to overcome severe negative pressure gradients.
While unheated air curtains successfully prevent physical air exchange and wind infiltration, electric or hot-water heated air curtains enhance occupant comfort in retail and lobby settings by warming the incoming stream, ensuring visitors do not feel a cold draft.
