Music Theater, Linz

With the completion of the Music Theater in early 2013, the state capital of Upper Austria has not only created a venue with outstanding acoustics, but has also created a modern building that leaves its mark on the urban landscape. The building is based on a design by the British architect Terry Pawson and features a generously dimensioned main foyer whose floor-to-ceiling glass facade is extended visually up to the green space of the neighboring park.

The auditorium itself is designed as a compact tiered theater with connecting staircases inside the hall to ensure a good view of the stage and perfect acoustics from all 970 seats. Steamed acacia wood on the walls and ceilings and light oak floor boards form a matte shell, against which golden balconies are contrasted. Condair Dual2 hybrid humidifiers guarantee outstanding atmospheric humidity throughout the interior.

HygienePlus® method

Basically, air conditioners and humidification devices are not sterile areas. Even when humidifying water of drinking-water quality is used, this is never completely germ-free. Therefore, microbes can always settle and form hazardous biofilms in humidifiers and in damp areas of air conditioners. Suitable hygiene measures are therefore essential to hinder the growth and propagation of pathogens in adiabatic humidifiers. The germ diagram points out the rapid propagation of microorganisms when no appropriate steps are taken to contain them. The HygienePlus® method provides for healthy air and a lasting hygienic environment.

Energy-efficient low-pressure system

The low-pressure mode of operation translates to significant energy savings due to the lesser compression work. By combining the Condair DL humidifier and the reverse osmosis of the Condair AT2, even a pressure booster pump on the humidification system becomes superfluous!

Schematic layout

Low-pressure systems generally get by with a significantly shallower design depth than high-pressure humidifiers. Due to the arrangement of the evaporator ceramics so that they cover the full area, and as a result of the spray cone of the molecular diffuser nozzles, the entire overall depth of the Condair DL can be reduced to up to 600 mm. Thanks to its compact design, the humidification chamber can also be shortened, achieving a significant saving in materials.
