Summary

Underfloor air distribution (UFAD) and displacement ventilation (DV) often are considered synonyms for describing an air distribution system that uses a raised access floor plenum. However, just because the supply air is delivered into a room or space from an access floor does not necessarily mean it is a DV system. This paper describes the difference between the two systems.
