Abstract: A unit ventilator is described in which air treating apparatus is housed within a chassis which is readily removable from a fixedly installed cabinet. The air treating apparatus includes an evaporator, a compressor, a condenser and an air flow system for separately handling air for ventilating and air for condenser cooling and in which the system for condenser cooling provides for evaporative cooling of the refrigerant. The invention contemplates modular system arrangements in which the use of plural chassis in an installation enables the production of a wide range of ventilating capacity from minimal change in alternative chassis modules.
