Mixing Rooms<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It may seem easy to just store your\npaints, primers, glazes, and other chemicals in the corner of your shop, but keeping\nthese things in the open presents a fire hazard. And it\u2019s difficult to clean up\naccidental spills all over your shop\u2019s floor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With a well-built mixing\nbooth<\/a>, you have a dedicated and safe place to store your paints and stains.\nAll of our mixing\nrooms<\/a> are ETL-certified<\/a>\nand compliant with NFPA standards. Built-in ventilation systems run continuously,\nremoving the fumes and harmful particles created by mixing and storing paint\nand other chemicals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Energy-Efficient LED Lights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Your paint booth probably has lights already,\nbut built-in illumination isn\u2019t always optimal, especially for finishing jobs\nthat require a lot of precision. When you upgrade your booth to energy-efficient LED\nflat-panel lights<\/a>. The LED lay-in panels are slim and easy to install, and are\nsuitable for both heated and unheated booths. LED panels drastically reduce\nenergy use, costing you less money on each power bill. Additionally, they last\nfor an extremely long time and come with a five-year warranty.  Our panels have up to 60,000 hours of run time,\nwhich equates to over 6 years (if you left them on 24\/7). Another great benefit\nis that your energy company may give you a credit for upgrading to LED so the\nupgrade isn\u2019t as costly as you think.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Air Makeup Units (AMU)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To keep the proper air pressure in\nyour paint booth, you need to replace the air that gets exhausted during\noperation. The easiest way to do this is with an air makeup unit (AMU<\/a>),\nwhich balances air pressure inside the booth by automatically providing the\nright amount of replacement air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Installing an AMU is a better,\nmore-efficient solution for air pressure management than trying to use the HVAC\nsystem to regulate the air pressure in the shop. Plus, AMUs are heated, so\nthere are even more benefits:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
