Air Circulation Fans
Air circulation fans are the most powerful fans around. They'll help get the air flowing around even the largest, most wide-open spaces! They're built to last in hectic environments like gyms and warehouses, so if you want no-nonsense cooling power, pick up an air circulator!
The Most Powerful Fans on the Market
If you need a lot of air moving and moving quickly, you need an air circulation fan. These powerful fans are designed to blast high volumes of air around wide-open spaces, improving airflow and keeping temperatures comfortable.
Ideal for Large Rooms
If you have a large, open room such as a warehouse or a gym, it can be really hard to keep it cool on a hot day. Air doesn’t always flow naturally around these wide-open spaces, especially if they’re full of shelving units, machinery, or other equipment. In these situations, an air circulation fan will do exactly as the name suggests – it’ll improve air circulation around the room and ensure staff and customers stay cool.
How Do Air Circulation Fans Work?
Fans make a room feel cooler even though they don’t actually lower the temperature. So, how does this work? It’s all down to the amount of air they move. When air moves against your skin, a tiny amount of moisture from your skin will evaporate. When water evaporates, it loses some heat energy – this is why sweat cools you down. Naturally, the more air you have moving against your skin, the greater the cooling effect, which is how fans make you feel cool without lowering the room temperature.
This is why good air circulation is so important – if air is flowing freely around a room, then it’ll feel much more comfortable. If a room has poor air circulation, the air will simply sit and grow stale. If it’s full of people or heat-emitting equipment - as places like warehouses and server rooms tend to be - the temperature will quickly rise until it’s unbearable. Any fan will improve the air circulation somewhat, but for very large or very hot rooms, you’ll need something a little more powerful. That’s where air circulation fans come in handy.
Simple and Durable
Air circulators are usually designed for use in very large, busy areas like warehouses. This means they’re made to be tough and durable rather than stylish. If you want something you can use all day in a hectic work environment, one of these air circulation fans will ensure you’re kept comfortable throughout the hottest summer days.
High-Volume Airflow
We measure airflow capacity in m³. It can be expressed per hour, per minute, or per second, so be sure to double-check this before you purchase. Naturally, larger rooms require a higher airflow capacity (and very large spaces may need several fans to ensure proper air circulation). Airflow is dictated by several things, including fan speed, blade design, and size.
Amazing Value
Air circulation fans are the best-value way to move high volumes of air around because you can pick up two or three models relatively cheaply. This will allow you to get air moving around a massive area, keeping your staff and customers cool and refreshed.
Do I Need an Air Circulation Fan?
If your bedroom or office gets baking hot, it might sound tempting to pick up the most powerful air circulator you can find. However, most rooms don’t really need a fan that powerful! For most domestic purposes, a tower fan, pedestal fan, or air cooler will work just fine. Air circulator fans are intended for very large or busy areas and may be too noisy for your bedroom. Bear this in mind when shopping around for a domestic fan.
