Opening
264 Annex Road
On Wednesday 13 February, Smooth-Air held
an Open Day and evening gathering to celebrate
the rebuild of their National Headquarters at 264
Annex Road. During the day, customers enjoyed
an all-day BBQ, featuring smoked pork ribs.
Around 60 suppliers, customers and stakeholders
attended the evening function, and were shown
around the purpose built building. “This new
building is better suited to our needs and
more efficient than the
previous one”, marketing
spokesperson Kate Rattray
says.
“In the meantime, we will be
continually moving onwards
and upwards with an
increased product range to
service our commercial, trade
and domestic customers.”
In the welcoming speech, CEO Allan Doak
introduced the new National Sales Manager Phil
Henderson, and new Southern Regional Manager
Richard Jack. “Their focus will be on continuing
to provide customers with excellent service and
advice.”
Experts in providing quality of air for domestic
and commercial purposes, Smooth-Air supplies

For the domestic market, the
focus is on cleaner, drier, warmer
homes. Smooth-Air has several
ventilation systems designed for
the New Zealand climate. The
HEX390 is a heat
exchanger suitable
for domestic and commercial
premises, exchanging fresh air
for stale, while reclaiming heat (or
cooling) from the expelled air.
Their HTU heat transfer systems
are another popular option,
transferring heat from log burners to
one, two, three or four other areas
of the home, improving energy efficiency and
reducing power consumption.
Smooth-Air also caters for large commercial
projects, with the capacity to produce substantial
quantities of TD panel (a hi-tech lightweight
insulated material) duct,
as well as provide other
specified equipment,
including Air Change heat
exchangers such
as used for many
municipal pool
complexes

around
the country, including

workshop team builds ducting components,
and these can be supplied from stock,
or made to customer specifications.
