Door Information System
Building maintenance is never fun, especially when your workers can’t locate the problem. If you have an issue with a trash chute, depending on how many floors you have, you may spend hours looking for a door that is not working. Avoid costly and time-consuming repairs with the Columbia Chutes Door Information System! Our system controller comes with a 16×2 character LCD which gives you live status updates on your chute and tells you which door is experiencing problems. With this add-on, your time spent troubleshooting drops immensely!
Reduced Diameter Venting
All Columbia Chutes chute systems include pricing for venting through the roof. If your building is tight on space, or if you are looking for some value engineering, consider opting for reduced diameter venting. Columbia Chutes has plenty of experience with custom venting solutions to meet the requirements of your building and your budget
