TECNALCO

Square and rectangular models:

TECNALCO ceiling diffusers can supply large volumes of conditioned air at acceptable sound levels
and pressure drops, when over all dimensions of the diffuser are limited by modular ceiling systems or
architectural considerations.The excellent performance is completed by a pleasing appearance that
hormonizes with various architectural details, especially in modular ceiling systems.

TECNALCO directional diffusers are a popular, versatile choice for many heating, ventilating and
cooling applications. There is a style, size, pattern to fit every conceivable installation and shape and size of
space to be conditioned. The diffuser directional pattern can be selected to deliver the appropriate
amount of conditioned air in to the areas, where it is needed.
