Abstract
A paint booth arrangement maximizes floor space and efficiency of a painting operation. The arrangement comprises an equipment enclosing structure and certain air handling equipment specifically configured within the structure. The structure comprises forward and rearward sections, opposed wall sections, a centralized roof section, and opposed wall-to-roof sections, which sections define open space having varied elevation for receiving paintable equipment. The air handling equipment comprises an air intake and exhaust assemblies and an air replacement system. The air intake and exhaust assemblies extend coextensively intermediate the wall sections at the rearward section and function to support portions of the air replacement system. The air replacement system comprises conduit extending intermediate the forward and rearward sections as defined by the wall-to-roof sections. The air intake assembly communicates with the conduit for directing inlet airflow to the open space, and the air exhaust assembly comprises exhausts airflow from the open space.
