With a variety of optional components, PitMaster can dramatically improve:
  • Facility Cleanliness - Helps keep dirt, debris and refuse out of leveler pit; closes gaps around leveler that allow dirt, dust and insects into the building.
  • Improves industrial hygiene and sanitation, and reduces white space to help pass AIB inspections.
  • Energy Savings - Seals gaps to prevent heating or cooling energy from escaping the building through air flow, and reduces heat transfer through steel leveler deck. Can save up to $900 per year per dock position in total energy savings, depending on climate.

Frommelt Loading Dock Energy Loss Analysis
Stop your profits from blowing out the loading dock!  

With the rapidly rising cost of energy, effectively sealing dock openings takes on a critical importance.  The Frommelt Loading Dock Energy Loss Analysis is an exclusive, engineered program that calculates the energy cost savings that can be realized with a variety of dock sealing configurations.  Using ASHRAE methods for measuring air infiltration and wind speed, and national data on local weather, the tool considers the elements of your specific situation to calculate the actual dollars that would be lost through your unsealed dock openings. The savings associated with different solutions, together with investment payback timelines, are also calculated.  For example, choosing an enclosure that seals the open trailer door hinge gaps can save from $200 to $600 or more per year in preventable energy loss, depending on your location and the specifics of your facility and loading practices.

Air Curtain Doors

Air Curtains (or Air Doors) generate a controlled screen of air across door openings helping you meet local health and sanitation requirements by creating a thermal sheet of air in doorways.  Air curtains form a barrier to prevent the entry of airborne dust, dirt, insects at any size door.  They generate a controlled screen of air across door openings which creates an air barrier to keep warm heater air or cooled air inside your building or store.  This saves energy and increases the level of comfort. Air Curtain Doors stabilize environments and save energy by minimizing the heated air loss and air-conditioned air loss through open doorways.

To gain the most benefit possible from your air curtain, you need to consider several important factors.


Determine if your installation application:
  • COMMERCIAL: offices, supermarkets, shopping malls, restaurants, catering facilities, hospitals, drive-thru settings
  • INDUSTRIAL: warehouses, receiving or service doors, manufacturing plants, transportation terminals, police and fire stations.
Determine your primary need for an Air Curtain:
  • Environmental separation, keeping dirt, dust and pollutants out ! 
  • Temperature control, keeping temperature controlled environments separate
  • Fly and insect control, for sanitary requirements or anywhere else where flying insects are a problem
Determine the door openings location:
  • Exterior door (separation of the inside of your building from outside elements)
  • Interior door - separating two indoor areas such as: offices from warehouses . . . cold storage from work areas, clean rooms from manufacturing facilities, paint booths from production areas, etc.
Determine your door height and width:
  • Make your selection regarding your need for a heated or unheated air curtain. Most units offer both
