Truck and Large Equipment

The following standard features come on GFS Large Equipment Paint Booths:

Complete Package

GFS Paint Booths are shipped complete with everything you need to build and operate it, including wall panels, fan, motor, doors, intake and exhaust filters with grids, light fixtures and tubes, controls, assembly hardware and installation drawings.

Heavy-Duty Panels

GFS truck and large equipment booths are constructed and rigidly reinforced with single-skin, 18-gauge, G-90 galvanized steel.

Solid Construction

Pre-punched booth panels and nut-and-bolt assembly takes the guesswork out of installing a paint booth, and provides more structural integrity.

Solid Back or Drive-Thru Configuration

Paint booths can be designed with a solid back or as a drive-thru configuration.

Downdraft Design

Generally accepted as the best airflow style, downdraft booths do an excellent job at controlling overspray and contamination. Air enters the booth through a full length, filtered ceiling plenum. From there, air flows vertically over the product and into the filtered exhaust pit in the floor.

Side Downdraft Design

Side downdraft booths are an economical solution for shops that can’t afford or aren’t able to install a pit. Air comes into the booth through a full-length, filtered ceiling plenum, and flows downward over the product. When air reaches the floor, it is pulled into floor level filtered exhaust plenums on either side of the booth.

Crossdraft Design

The simplest configuration, crossdraft booths use an exhaust fan to pull air in at one end of the booth. Air may pass through a filtered door, enter the working chamber unfiltered or be pushed through a pressurized intake plenum. Air flows parallel to the floor, across the vehicle and into a filter bank at the booth rear.

Superior Lighting

GFS paint booths feature integrated 4-tube, inside-access fluorescent light fixtures. Light fixtures are ETL-listed and come complete with T-8 color-corrected tubes.

Personnel Doors

Each booth includes at least on personnel door, depending on the size of the booth.

Product Entry Doors

Booth product doors can be filtered or solid.

• Used only with non-pressurized booths, filtered entry doors allow product entry and exit while filtering the input air. These doors attach to the front of the booth and do not add depth.
• Solid entry doors are used in pressurized applications to enclose the booth.
• Product doors can be either 2-panel swing or 4-panel bi-fold. 4-panel bi-fold doors are shown.

Deluxe Control Panel
