How do HVLS fans work?
HVLS fans work on the principle that cool moving air breaks up the moisture-saturated boundary layer surrounding the body and accelerates evaporation to produce a cooling effect. Ceiling fans produce a column of air as they turn. This column of air moves down and out along the floor.
The high volume, low speed (HVLS) industrial ceiling fan is designed to circulate the air in your facility more efficiently and effectively. What is an HVLS fan? HVLS fans are large industrial fans that typically measure 6 feet and up. These fans are meant to circulate a large amount of air by using air streams.
The benefits of HVLS fans
Here are six ways you can benefit from HVLS fans in your industrial space.

- Heat Destratification.
- Lower Energy Costs.
- Reduced Risk of Condensation.
- Improved Air Quality.
- Happier Workers.
How to choose a HVLS Fan?
Background Information
- Air temperature.
- Relative Humidity (Higher humidity reduces the evaporative cooling effect)
- Occupant activity level (Higher activity levels generally produce more perspiration and therefore more cooling.)
- Amount of Clothing (The more clothing worn, the less skin is exposed for cooling)
- Air Velocity.
