HVLS Fans
Industrial HVLS Fans for Efficient Airflow
HVLS fans (high-volume, low-speed fans) are large-diameter ceiling fans designed to move massive amounts of air quietly and efficiently. Spanning over 7 feet, they create a gentle breeze that feels up to 12 degrees cooler in summer and push warm air down from the ceiling in winter—reducing the strain on HVAC systems year-round.
Powered by direct drive motors, these fans operate with fewer moving parts, cutting down on maintenance and noise. Their aerodynamic blades maximize airflow while minimizing energy use, making them ideal for large industrial spaces.
Optional smart controls let you manage speed, schedules, and fan zones from a central interface—perfect for adapting to changing facility needs. Whether you need one fan or a complete system, our team offers expert recommendations, installation, and full-service support.

Details
Characteristics of HVLS fans include:
- HVLS = High Volume Low Speed (around 8 mph).
- Greater than 7 ft. in diameter.
- Can cover areas > 20,000 square feet.
- Summer: Provides significant air movement, creating a gentle breeze that makes your facility 10-12 degrees cooler.
- Winter: Gently pushes warm air down from the ceiling.
- Emits <42 decibels, which makes it quiet.
- Direct Drive Motors eliminate the need for gears, reducing parts wearing out and maintenance. No gear box = lightweight.
Energy Efficient:
- Reduces burden on cooling and heating systems.
- Enacts principles of aerodynamics for optimal air distribution and minimal drag.
Construction:
- Robust and sturdy construction means they stand up against the harshest industrial conditions.
- Conform to ANSI/AMCA regulations for large-diameter ceiling fans.
Optional HVLS Controls
- Digital fan controllers enable programming for complex fan schedules.
- Adjust fan speeds remotely and monitor airflow in real-time.
- Manage a single fan or up to 30 fans in a single zone.
- Schedule is determined by factors such as climate and operational hours.
