Specify the smarter solution that satisfies everyone in today's smoke-free workplace:
AIR-FLO SMOKING SHELTER.

DESIGNED TO BE DIFFERENT

In 1990 Duo-Gard introduced the first fully enclosed, weatherproof smoking shelter specifically engineered as the long-term solution to a growing workplace dilemma..

Nonsmokers demand elimination of a proven health risk. Smokers demand recognition of a personal choice. Management's in the middle, searching for a solution that satisfies everyone while maintaining responsibility, morale, public image. All on a tighter budget.

Across the country, clients in business, health care and government facilities depend on Duo-Gard's Air-Flo shelters as the cost-effective, long-term solution that satisfies all the concerns.

Design flexibility, attractive appearance and superior structural integrity result in a building that suits your site, whether you choose one of 70 standard sizes or require a custom shelter.

A SHELTER FOR ALL SEASONS

Air-Flo shelters provide advantages over makeshift enclosures, awnings, overhangs (usually temporary and often a fire hazard) and over open-air structures, which offer little protection from the weather.

Modular, fully enclosed Air-Flo shelters combine 6063-T5 extruded aluminum framing and translucent bronze, twin-walled polycarbonate structured sheet (PCSS) for durability, strength and high light transmission. PCSS is flame retardant, virtually unbreakable, maintenance-free and vandal-resistant.

Air-Flo Smoking Shelters can be quickly-and easily installed on your prepared concrete pad or wood deck. Regardless of its location on your site, the shelter offers an attractive, affordable solution for your organization.

Each shelter is configured to your requirements. And it's easy to relocate if your needs change!
