All C/S Louvers are tested in our exclusive test chamber. The C/S Test chamber enables

our engineers to test our designs, or your designs, under real world conditions.

Only C/S can prove that your louverswill perform in the real world.

Air Handling

The equipment directly behind the louver and howmuch air it requires is a major design consideration. Wecan supply the correct louver to meet your requiredeffectiveness at the required core ventilation rate.

Aesthetics – Hiding louvers behind stone, marble, grillages and glass

Hiding louvers behind the primary facade is a C/S specialty. Through the use of our test chamberwe can quickly get performance data to you andmodify the louver spacing to accommodate yourneeds without affecting your exterior's design.

The external wind generator can produce hurricane force winds up to90 mph creating wind driven rains.

Wind driven rain simulatordirects vast quantities ofwater at the louver. Up to 9" of water per hour.

Collection chamber shows C/S engineers thelouver effectiveness at stopping wind drivenrain. Blade adjustments can be made quickly.

Achieving maximum airflow and minimum water entry

Letting air in and keeping water out is a realbalancing act. The C/S Test Chamber allows usto quickly modify blade shape and spacing toprovide you with the performance you require.

Don’t let leaky louvers shut down your building.

Does rain fall straight down? Most rainstorms are accompanied by wind—many times

strong wind gusts. The result—wind driven rain, serious internal water problems, and

devastating effects on the performance of the building. To prevent problems all

C/S Louvers are tested in our exclusive test chamber.

This horizontal louver isdesigned to “twist” theincoming air twice tomaximize water removal.Rain water is collected in the horizontal blade drains.

These louvers are up to100% effective at stopping wind driven rain.

Up to 100% effective at stopping wind driven rain.

This vertical louver is generally more effective at removingwater .

RainWind driven rain in conventional louver testsallow 48 pints of water to pass through a 4' x 4'louver in one hour at 30 mph velocity.

7

The C/S Wind Driven Rain Test Facility (pages 4-5) allows C/S to analyze the performance of all of our louvers. Throughexperimentation with bending wind, C/S Engineers have designed horizontal and vertical louver systems that allow air in buildings while keeping water out.

C/S Storm Resistant Louvers Stop Rain and Prevent Costly Damage.

The flat design of conventional louver blades does little to prevent wind driven rain from passing through them,even in sheltered areas.

The Problem With Conventional Louvers

R A I N D E F E N S E

Page 5: Construction Specialties  2010 Louver Catalog

The principle reason for using louvers is to move air. How do you know if the

louver you specify will actually deliver the air volume the engineer called for?

History has shown that sizing and specifying louvers based on free area alone

can cause problems for architects and owners alike. The illustrations on these

pages explain what to do to prevent under or oversizing louvers.

8

When You Specify a 50% Free Area Louver, What Are You Really Getting?

Get The Right Louver Every Time With The New C/S Online Airflow Tool.

Free area is affected by the size of the louver. In the example below thelouver design is identical, only the size has been varied. The industry typically quotes free area using a 4 foot square louver. In reality louvers are never precisely this size.

Specifying louvers on free area alone can cause serious problems.

Blade Styles

Does your design call for horizontal or vertical blades? Do you want an unbroken architectural line or are mullions acceptable? Whatever blade style or depth you require, C/S can supply it.

One Raffles Quay, SingaporeArchitect: KPF Product: Custom ContinuousLine Storm Resistant Louvers

Color, texture, size, shape, mullions, continuous line – these are justsome of the aesthetic options open to you when designing your louversystem. Choose from the blade styles below or design your own. Thefollowing three pages show how some of these aesthetic options couldlook on your building.

C/S is concerned about the environment. Our louvers use recycled aluminum and we use an advanced powder coat finish that defends the louvers against windborne abrasives and corrosive atmospheres.C/S exterior powder coat finishes contain no solvents, emit no "VOCs"and provides one Innovation LEED Credit.

Aesthetics:

Decide what you want the louvers to look like on your building.Horizontal or verticalblades? Uninterrupted louver line or verticalbreaks? A 2" louver bladeproviding no shadow lines or a 6" louver withheavy shadow lines?

Rain Defense:

Does it matter if rainenters your building?Would rain entry causewater sensitive equipmentto shut down thereby preventing the buildingfrom functioning? Select a Storm Resistant orHurricane Louver whenstopping rain entry is important.

Air Flow:

Free area can be very misleading when determining airflow – see pages 10 & 11 and go to our website for project specific information.
