Kevin and the team got to work crafting a custom solution for MHP that eliminated molding pallets and moisture problems within the warehouse.
Our industrial warehouse ceiling fans have solved employee complaints and eliminated moisture buildup for many clients.
High-volume Low-Speed HVLS industrial ceiling fans give you two primary benefits: Less Electricity and increased Employee Comfort. These advantages have a direct impact on your bottom line.
Utility bills are lower because fans use less electricity than air conditioning. Increase productivity and avoid extra sick days by providing employees with a comfortable environment.
High-volume industrial ceiling fans are a cost-effective and energy-efficient way to deal with extreme heat or cold in your warehouse or industrial facility. Choose the right one and you'll have consistent, quiet, and highly effective airflow that will keep your employees happy and productive.
High-volume industrial ceiling fans are intended to circulate large amounts of air throughout a large structure, such as a warehouse or gym. They're much larger (some reach up to 30 feet in diameter) and come with a variety of options, such as security and safety features designed specifically for industrial buildings, rather than standard ceiling fans.
SIZE HVLS (high-volume, low-speed) ceiling fans typically range in diameter from 8 feet to 30 feet (2.4 to 9.1 meters). The size you select is usually determined by the dimensions of the building in which they will be installed. The largest fans can provide up to 25,000 square feet of air circulation coverage (more than 2,300 square meters).
Many HVLS fans are capable of much more than just circulating air. Industrial ceiling fans can be found that integrate with other building systems such as security, HVAC, and fire suppression. Most fans come with either wired or wireless remote controls or LCD touchscreens that simplify programming.
An industrial ceiling fan is the type of equipment most people install and then forget about. It runs, does its job, and you don't have to be concerned about it. However, because high-volume industrial ceiling fans are large and heavy, they must be completely secure. Some HVLS fans include various safety features, including redundant features that provide additional protection if any part fails.
Small noisy pedestal fans can be quite loud and disruptive. You want a quiet fan for quiet areas. Premium HVLS fans, particularly those with industrial direct-drive motors, are designed to be quiet.
When keeping large workspaces airy and comfy, large industrial fans work. The advantage is they blow more air compared to their smaller counterparts. These big fans aren't just effective at moving air; they also effectively beat the heat. They're built to handle large spaces; that's why they cool off an area faster.
They cost more than small fans upfront, but they save you cash with time. They're energy-saving game changers since they cool down large areas without racking up a hefty energy bill. It means the savings on your energy costs can add up, balancing out the initial price tag. Plus, they're durable. They don't break down quickly, meaning you won't be spending money on fixes or new fans every few years.
In terms of safety, better air movement without extension cords on the floor or pedestals is a win. Lastly, bigger fans are quieter. It means you'll have a better place to work where people can stay focused on the job.
In the world of industrial ceiling fans, variety is the name of the game. You've got your high-volume, low-speed (HVLS) fans, which are great for those big warehouses with plenty of headroom. They cover a big area. For small spots with low ceilings, standard industrial fans are the way to go. They fit in less spacious areas.
Directional fans are your go-to if you want to send a cool breeze exactly where you need it. They often work well with HVLS or standard fans to zone in on hot spots that need extra attention. Whether you're dealing with a sprawling space or a compact area, there's a fan for your warehouse's unique needs.
When you are looking for an industrial ceiling fan for your warehouse, you'll want to consider a few key things to pick the right one.
A. What size is your space? Width, length and height. The larger your warehouse, the more powerful a fan you'll need.
B. What is the minimum height? This is in regards to forklifts or overhead cranes. This consideration is super important because not all fans are created equal. We build custom fans specifically for shorter spaces above overhead cranes.
C. Power is another piece of the puzzle. Warehouse fans are generally 240v single phase or 480v 3 phase. You've got to know your voltage when ordering.
D. Installation is key, too. Where and how you mount the fan will affect everything from airflow to safety. If you have a difficult application, our in house welding crew can make custom heavy duty mounting brackets.
E. Finally, consider noise level. A loud fan can be annoying and distracting. We only want to provide quiet fans. All of our fans have no belts or gears for the least noise..
When picking out a commercial fan for your warehouse, there are some cool features and key points to think about.

Safety
An industrial ceiling fan is the type of equipment most people install and then forget about. It runs, does its job, and you don't have to be concerned about it. However, because high-volume industrial ceiling fans are large and heavy, they must be completely secure.

Warehouse ceiling fans are quite big, so naturally, you might think they'd use a lot of energy. It's actually not the case. The amount of energy they use depends on a few things: the fan's size, its model, and how fast you've got it running. What's neat about these fans is their ability to save energy at lower speeds. They're not energy hogs like air conditioners. Over the long haul, they can cut costs for businesses.
Wondering how long a warehouse fan keeps working? It's not just about time; it's about how you treat it. Crash it into things, and it'll give up sooner. Keep forklifts away and over voltages away from it , and it will last a long time. We build our fans for a 20 year life in mind to keep your warehouse cool for a long time. The secret is not hitting it and installing lightning/ overvoltage protection
Putting up an industrial ceiling fan might seem like a cool DIY project. Although it's doable, it's probably not the best idea if you are not mechanically inclined. Reputable mechanical contractors can install fans smoothly. It's a smart move to call in a pro – an electrician who knows exactly what they're doing. They'll ensure your fan is set up safely, so it works its best and doesn't cause any trouble.
