| Product Catalog > Heaters > Unit Ventilator Unit Ventilator It was nearly a full decade after Nesbitt Co. introduced the first unit ventilator in 1917 that Sturtevant started a product line, though they patented a unit ventilator as early as 1915. As long-time believers in the Central Air System, they viewed the initial units as too bulky and noisy to be seen as a viable alternative. With the creation of a light-weight copper heating surface,(developed
by Aerofin Corp. which Sturtevant co-founded) in the 1920s,
these issues disappeared and Sturtevant jumped into
the fray. Originally developed for schools, unit ventilators would
be in great demand in public and private buildings. |
