Dolphinarium

In 2014, the Dolfinarium underwent a major renovation with the aim of improving the indoor climate in the building while optimizing energy consumption. As Europe's largest centre for marine mammals, the facilities place special demands on ventilation — both for the many visitors and staff as well as the large, humid pool environments.

In buildings with high ceiling heights, large open spaces and varying loads, it can be a challenge to ensure a stable temperature and consistent air quality. Without the right solution, you risk drafts, cold drops and uneven temperature distribution — factors that negatively affect both comfort and energy consumption.

The consulting engineer therefore prescribed textile-based ventilation, focusing on achieving a draft-free and uniform air distribution. The solution makes it possible to distribute the air evenly over large areas and at the same time adjust the air intake precisely to the function and load of the rooms.

The textile ducts ensure that fresh air is supplied in a controlled manner and distributed efficiently in the living areas, ensuring a stable and comfortable indoor climate — without bothersome drafts. At the same time, the efficient air distribution contributes to a more energy-efficient operation, as ventilation can be precisely sized and controlled as needed.

The result of the renovation is a significantly improved indoor climate, where comfort, functionality and energy considerations go hand in hand in a complex and demanding building environment.
