In winter, each ceiling fan brings a large amount of warm air to the lower levels, preventing heat from escaping and lowering your heating costs. In summer, our HVLS fans create a breeze that significantly reduces perceived temperatures. By moving a large amount of air in this manner, our industrial fans help you control the temperature of a space, resulting in significant energy savings and creating an optimum operating environment for occupants, stock and machinery alike.
Big spaces need big fans. Refresh Fans are a necessary element for any business with a large footprint, not only because of how important high volume air movement is to the effective operation of your company, but also because it is associated with improved productivity statistics for employees. Each HVLS fan in your facility reduces your overall costs and is a valuable component of any modern HVAC design.

Advantages of HVLS Fans Over Regular
High-Speed Fans
Many people wonder how an HVLS fan differs from a regular, high-speed fan. The major difference between a high and low speed fan has to do with the way it affects the air. Small fans with high-velocity wind flows create air streams that are both turbulent and only have short-term, localized and temporary effects. By contrast, air flows from large diameter, slowly-rotating fans are known to move air around large spaces much more effectively, allowing a greater degree of environment and temperature control.
By pushing large volumes of air straight downwards, HVLS fans force the air to radiate outward in all directions once it hits the floor. The air moves laterally until it hits a wall, at which point these large volumes of air move upward, creating a convection effect that replaces humidity with dry air, which leads to a cooling effect during summer and redistributes warm air during the winter by moving hot air that has been trapped near the ceiling. By using an HVLS fan in your large industrial, commercial or agricultural space, you save money by reducing the cost of HVAC systems and their associated conditioning or heating functions.
