How Can These Heat-Related Illnesses Be Prevented?
What Are The Benefits of Panel Built Cool Down Booths?
Panel Built Cool Down Booths are an excellent solution for employers operating in interior and exterior high heat environments. The modular structures are semi-permanent, providing flexibility for the structure's future. We can deliver to your facility in both pre-assembled and 'knock-down' forms to be easily put together on site.
The Cool Down Booths create an isolated and insulated space with a personal, Through-Wall HVAC system. Rather than cooling down or air conditioning a large area, the booth creates a manageable space that can easily be climate controlled at a fraction of the cost. In addition, the buildings are 100% built to customer specifications. So, the booth can function as a single-man, personal booth, or a larger space that could cool multiple workers at once.
Panel Built utilizes our popular wall panel design to create the booths. With the components prefabricated in our specialized modular construction facilities, the small buildings are quickly and conveniently installed at the project site. In addition, they can be delivered pre-wired and prepped for HVAC, allowing you to be promptly up and running once connected to a power source.
Many of our customers work on different job sites weekly or monthly. For them, Panel Built offers a highly mobile version of our Cool Down Booth trailer mounted. These portable booths can be easily towed from job site to job site, always providing a cool place for employees to relax. In addition, trailered Booths can be designed with a mounted generator unit to allow the booths to travel practically anywhere with a constant power source.
Panel Built's cool-down booths utilize a 3' thick wall panel system with a polystyrene core. Exterior stalls will typically use a steel skin for the outer wall facing. On the other hand, we usually form our interior buildings from our double-sided vinyl-covered gypsum panel. For increased R-Values, we substitute a higher density core (Polyisocyanurate) to provide additional insulation.

Remember, when the Heat Index reaches the medium threat level, employees should have a cool, shaded area to take breaks and cool down. Panel Built offers highly flexible, semi-permanent cool-down solutions that can be adapted to fit your business's needs. Panel Built cool down booths can be designed for any work environment, accommodating single-person or multi-worker cool down sessions.
