Project Overview

Jul 16, 2016

Aug 6, 2016

This custom ventilated paint booth build in Poughkeepsie, NY was engineered for a commercial client in need of a high-performance finishing space that met both air quality and illumination standards beyond basic code. The job demanded more than assembly — it required precision engineering in motion, balancing air flow, filtration, and light distribution in a confined industrial environment. The space began as an empty section of warehouse — bare walls, no ducting, no light control, and minimal power routing. The client needed a booth capable of supporting consistent paint finishes across large metal surfaces while maintaining operator safety and visibility. We designed and constructed a fully ventilated, high-visibility spray booth that doesn’t just meet OSHA and EPA expectations — it surpasses them. Every angle, vent, and panel was built to optimize performance and serviceability.

Project Notes

📸 These photos show:
A custom-built commercial paint booth designed, framed, and outfitted by Reale Construction Rx for an industrial client in Poughkeepsie, NY.

Build Scope & Details:

  • Framing & Containment: Structural framing built from pressure-rated steel and dimensional lumber to ensure airtight containment and stability under continuous negative pressure.

  • Ventilation System: Installed dual-stage exhaust with high-efficiency particulate filtration and directional airflow control to maintain consistent evacuation rates across the entire workspace.

  • Lighting Design: Integrated high-lumen LED lighting panels throughout ceiling and sidewalls for full-spectrum clarity, ensuring accurate color matching and surface inspection.

  • Safety & Access: Added reinforced access doors, explosion-proof fan housing, and smooth washable interior panels for easy cleaning and compliance.

  • Performance Testing: Verified uniform air draw and lighting distribution — no dead zones, no shadow lines, no overspray buildup points.

The final booth doesn’t just operate — it breathes. Balanced air exchange rates maintain operator comfort while preventing particulate backflow or fume concentration.

Maintenance Tips:

  • Replace filters regularly based on booth hours to maintain pressure equilibrium and air purity.

  • Keep LED covers clean — even minor film reduces visibility and color accuracy.

  • Schedule airflow recalibration annually to verify CFM output against manufacturer ratings.

  • Inspect fan belts and ducts quarterly for overspray accumulation or imbalance.

Result:
A fully operational industrial-grade paint booth that delivers clean air, consistent lighting, and uncompromised performance — engineered for longevity, precision, and compliance. This wasn’t just a booth build — it was the creation of a controlled environment where craftsmanship can thrive without constraint.
