Industrial Ceiling Fans & Controls

Considerations When Buying Industrial Ceiling Fans:

• Size of Room. The size of the room may be the most important factor when choosing industrial ceiling fans. If the room is larger and you get a smaller fan, the airflow won't be adequate enough for the size of the room whereas a fan that is too large for the room would create too much airflow. It is important to measure the space and choose a fan based on that aspect. For example, larger rooms will benefit from models with 7 blades over 3 in a larger overall diameter than smaller fans.
• Desired Controls. Our selection of industrial ceiling fans comes with the option to add several types of controls. From multiple speeds to lighting dimmers, there are a lot of control options you can add to your ceiling fan. Make sure you consider this element before purchasing to get the right capability for your preferences.
• Lights. While you can choose just a ceiling fan for your location, there are also options which allow you to add a light fixture to the design. The addition of lighting can a be a great way to add to the general lighting of the space, but you may find it overpowering if you already have ample lighting in the area so carefully consider this before you purchase a fan.
• Cost. The matter of cost is important for any location working on a budget. The good news is that there are plenty of options at affordable prices to help you make the most of your space with a fan.
• Warranty. Many options offer a manufacturer warranty. This can give you extra peace of mind when shopping for this important item. Warranties may be specifically for a certain number of years or a limited lifetime warranty, depending on the option and brand.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Industrial Ceiling Fans?

Industrial Ceiling Fans are used to properly circulate air around large open areas. They can also make it more efficient and cost-effective for heating and cooling system in a building by distributing air more evenly.

Where are Industrial Ceiling Fans used?

Industrial Ceiling Fans are ideal for use in large indoor or outdoor areas such as warehouses, offices, large stores, garages and storage areas. They are different from residential ceiling fans due to their larger blade size and larger diameter. They also have more powerful motors and are made of more durable materials such as steel and aluminum. This allows them to last longer in harsher environments.

What are the different types of Industrial Ceiling Fans?

Industrial ceiling fans have several different features that are important to understand when determining what kind is best for your needs.

Blade size and number:

Larger spaces require fans that have more blades and a larger diameter.

Motor:

• AC (alternating current) motors plug directly into a power source. This is ideal if only a few fans are being used.
• DC (direct current) motors plug into a transformer which then connects to a power source. These are more efficient, especially when using a larger number of fans for a given space.

Mounting:

Most fans are mounted on a rod which extends down from the ceiling to the motor and blades. It is important that there is enough space between the blades and the ceiling to ensure proper air circulation.

Airflow rating (CFM):

The air flow rating is measured in cubic feet per minute or CFM. This figure indicates the volume or amount of air the fan can move per minute. To find the right airflow rating for the size of your space, divide the size of the room in cubic feet by the suggested CFM of the fan as specified by the manufacturer. You want it to be less than 5 minutes for the air to circulate to avoid the space becoming hot and stagnant.
