airfin® and waterfin®: Advanced Protection for More Efficient HVAC Systems

With the arrival of summer, rising temperatures highlight the importance of increasingly efficient, durable, and sustainable HVAC systems. In this context, ALUCOAT presents its airfin® and waterfin® solutions, developed to protect heat exchangers against corrosion, optimize their performance, and extend equipment service life while minimizing maintenance requirements. These solutions help improve energy efficiency and sustainability—two of the industry’s key challenges—while maximizing the performance of heat exchange systems.

The airfin® range has been designed to provide advanced corrosion protection for heat exchangers and other HVAC components. Its technology adapts to different performance requirements, offering excellent UV resistance, high flexibility, and outstanding coating adhesion. These features help maintain equipment performance even in highly aggressive environments.

Meanwhile, waterfin® has been specifically developed for compact HVAC equipment. Its hydrophilic properties help prevent ice bridge formation, enabling more efficient system operation. Within this range, waterfin® 700 stands out as a dual-layer solution that provides enhanced corrosion protection, particularly in installations exposed to high levels of pollution or harsh environmental conditions.

These solutions are complemented by ALUCOAT® PRELAC, ALUCOAT’s chromium-free pretreatment developed to improve coating adhesion and increase corrosion resistance. This technology provides an additional level of protection even in the most demanding applications, contributing to greater component durability.

With airfin®, waterfin®, and ALUCOAT® PRELAC, ALUCOAT continues to deliver innovative solutions for more efficient, sustainable, and long-lasting HVAC systems, meeting the evolving needs of the industry while enhancing the performance of heat exchange systems.

ALUCOAT Reaffirms Its Support for the Brotherhood of Our Lady of Linarejos Through the Donation of Aluminum Rolls

From May 23 to 31, the traditional festivities in honor of the Crowned Virgin of Linarejos were held in Linares (Jaén), one of the city’s most emblematic events, bringing together numerous residents and visitors every year.
