Industrial Finishing Spray Paint Booths – Semi Down Draft

Marathon’s Semi Down Draft Series spray booths are designed to be an efficient finishing solution, an excellent balance between cost, quality and functionality. This model of industrial paint room can be ordered with a Spray & Cure Air Make Up unit (heater) or without.

Semi Down Draft

The Semi Down Draft Spray Paint Booths is an excellent “All Around” paint booth, and is also one of our most popular styles. The air enters through the intake plenum above the front doors, and travels horizontally through the booth.

The air exits the booth through the rear exhaust filter plenum, and finally out the back of the booth. This standard design is popular because it is simple to use and maintain. You can order this design with a Spray & Cure heater added as an option. This industrial paint room model is available in standard sizes, or Marathon can custom build one to your specifications.

The Semi Down Draft “(SD) Series” Spray Booth
This spray booth is designed so the air enters through the front ceiling intake filters and moves horizontally, from the front of the booth to the rear of the booth, enveloping the vehicle with clean, filtered air. Over spray from the painting process is then captured by the exhaust filters in the back wall of the spray booth.

While Marathon Finishing Systems offers a full line of paint booths, the Semi Down Draft Spray Booth is by far our most popular model, one that strikes an excellent balance of utility, price and air flow type. Marathon designs and manufactures our entire line of spray booths to meet today’s demanding paint technology. Whether you are spraying solvent-based product (paint), waterborne product only, or a combination of solvent and water borne product, we have the right solution for your application. Our team will help you choose the right spray booth package for your application and facility. We can also custom design a specialized system, based on your specific requirements. In fact, most of the systems built and installed by Marathon Finishing Systems are custom engineered for our customers. If your budget is the determining factor in your decision, you will not get a better “Bang for your Buck” than our Semi Down Draft Spray Booth.

If you’re refinishing cars, small trucks, motorcycles, watercraft, Marathon Finishing Systems will design, manufacture, deliver, install, and then train your staff to properly operate and maintain the complete system. Or if you choose, you can also install this semi down draft industrial paint room yourself with our installation instructions.

AIR FLOW
Intake, heated booth: Outside air is filtered twice, once as it enters through the air make up unit located at the side of the booth, and again as it passes through the intake plenum filters (shown in green). In this example, this booth is equipped with a Spray & Cure heating unit.

Exhaust: The filtered air travels horizontally across the length of the booth (crossflow). Finally, the air is filtered of overspray and particulates by the exhaust filters before exiting the booth. Marathon uses standard size intake and exhaust filter media, readily available from most paint and refinishing suppliers.
