Quiet industrial air conditioning:
when Foxair supplies an air cooler to Wheeler Dealers France

When filming began on the new season in June 2017, the heat quickly became a problem. So the team set about finding a solution, within three constraints.

• It has to be quick: the shooting dates have already been set and there’s no question of changing them.
• The immediate corollary is that there should be no massive installations that could interfere with the shooting environment. The use of a wall-mounted air conditioner or split system was therefore excluded.
• Last but not least, it must be silent: the air conditioning system must not interfere with sound recording, which severely limits the options in terms of cold diffusion.

Over the course of the summer, the presenters discovered Foxair’s solutions by doing some research on the Internet. Contact is made immediately. At their request, we supplied two of our air coolers: FOXAIR 24s. This one-piece mobile model is perfectly suited to the needs of the set. Each unit, of the reversible heat pump type, had sufficient power to ensure effective cooling even in the height of summer.

These were immediately available from stock, and were easily installed on the set alongside the other equipment. Thanks to their compact size, no additional equipment room was required. Between them, the units were capable of cooling 340 square meters – far more than a single room. The included accessories ensured rapid commissioning. Their BTU performance was comparable to some of the high-end conventional air conditioners on our product list.

This feedback highlights the flexibility of this type of solution, ideal for sensitive environments such as film shoots.
