High Performance/ Green buildings require high performance products. Ruskin Green products are located on the outside of the building reducing thermal loads throughout the HVAC system to individual zone control and balancing in the space. See how in our new Green section.

Test and balance is a critical part of every LEED project. The addition of the true-round VFBD25 balancing damper will significantly reduce the amount of time needed to set the required airflow through each branch of the air distribution system. The VFBD25 is a low noise solution, eliminates the need for hoods and is ideal for those hard-to-reach outlets.
To learn more about the Ruskin VFBD25, contact Ruskin at www.RUSKIN.com, or your local representative.
Using Ruskin CD50 dampers in your LEED projects will help identify energy savings in the building envelope and throughout the ductwork. Airfoil blades reduce pressure drop and noise and the CD50 in Class 1 leakage rated that meets requirements of IECC and ASHRAE 90.1 by leaking less than 3 cfm/sq. ft. at 1" static pressure.
To learn more about the Ruskin CD50, please contact your local Ruskin Representative at www.Ruskin.com.
Ruskin's low leak CD50L damper when combined with the appropriate 24v linear actuator produces a damper/actuator assembly that provides linear airflow through damper with respect to the signal it receives. This will allow for easier test and balance as well as save energy for LEED EAc1 on the building envelope.

Test and balance is a critical part of every LEED project. The addition of the VFBD35 Iris Damper will significantly reduce the amount of time needed to set the required airflow through each branch of the air distribution system. The VFBD35 is a low noise solution, eliminates the need for hoods and is ideal for those hard-to-reach outlets.

The use of external shading devices are a natural choice for Green Buildings. Ruskin Sunshades are available with a variety of blade and outrigger configurations and virtually any color. By reducing glare, the LEED designer can incorporate more glazing to increase natural lightings and views. In addition to IEQc8.1 for daylighting, other applicable LEED credits in play include EAc1, MRc4 and IEQc7.1.
To learn more about Ruskin Sunshades, please contact your local Ruskin Representative at www.RUSKIN.com
Using Ruskin CD60 galvanized steel dampers in your LEED projects will help identify energy savings in the building envelope and throughout the ductwork. Airfoil blades reduce pressure drop and noise and the CD60 is Class 1 leakage rated meeting the requirements of IECC and ASHRAE 90.1 by leaking less than 3 cfm/sq. ft. at 1" of static pressure.
To learn more about the Ruskin CD60, please contact your local Ruskin Representative at www.Ruskin.com.
