Air Damper

An air damper is a device used to control the flow of air in a ventilation system. It is usually installed in the ductwork of a building’s HVAC system, and is designed to regulate the amount of air that is allowed to pass through the system. Air dampers are used to control the temperature, humidity, and air pressure of a space. They can also be used to regulate the air flow to specific areas of a building, such as a single room or floor. Air dampers are typically operated manually, but can also be automated with the use of a thermostat or other control device. The primary purpose of an air damper is to maintain a comfortable environment for occupants, while also conserving energy by controlling the amount of air that is allowed to enter the space.
