Cambridge heating solutions use 100% outside air to heat buildings, and also serve as ventilation and air destratification equipment.
These systems mix fresh, outside air at a 10-1 ratio with existing air in the building, at a rate of 1,500 to 2,000 ft. per-minute.
Fresh, outside air enters the heating system through a double-width, double inlet and forward curve fan, which blows the fresh air into a proprietary burner system that can be fired by either natural gas or propane. No matter how the system is installed, whether on a rooftop, through wall, vertically or mounted on a horizontal outdoor stand, the commercial heating system functions the same way.
An engineer or space designer can help determine the right installation method for your building.
Just like the heating needs vary from commercial and residential buildings, commercial buildings and industrial facilities have different heating requirements as well.
Industrial facilities, including factories, steel mills, assembly plants and aerospace hangers require more fresh, outside air since machinery, blast equipment and aircrafts can put off harmful byproducts. In comparison, a commercial facility such as an indoor sports arena or retail space may not have the same needs but could have several additional zones requiring heating.

While there are several types of heating systems such as central forced air with heat pumps, water heating, geothermal heating, and solar, Cambridge has perfected gas-based high temperature heating and ventilation (HTHV) technology.
HTHV is a technology classification created by the Department of Energy (DOE), producing a heating system capable of a discharge temperature greater than or equal to 150°F and a temperature rise greater than or equal to 140°F. HTHV heating systems are capable of effectively heating and ventilating both large commercial and industrial spaces, reducing energy consumption and increasing energy savings by 20-70% depending on the building, location, application, and installation.
According to DOE and energy modeling studies, HTHV systems use the least amount energy to heat and ventilate warehouses and other commercial and industrial buildings with large open spaces.
Some industrial and commercial HTHV systems can provide heating, ventilation, and destratification all from the same piece of equipment. This helps reduce installation, operating and maintenance costs.
By using 100% outside air and direct-fired technologies, HTHV products provide a ventilation process that delivers superior indoor air quality for employees/building occupants.
