In a tall warehouse, hot air piles up at the ceiling and cold air settles at the floor. In summer that wastes cooling capacity; in winter it wastes heat. Destratification fans solve both.
How they work
HVLS fans move massive volumes of air slowly, mixing temperatures from floor to ceiling. The result is a more uniform temperature using significantly less energy.
Typical results
- 10–30% reduction in heating costs in winter
- Better worker comfort in summer with the same setpoint
- Lower humidity at floor level
- Payback in 18–36 months in most warehouses
Where to install
Open warehouse space with 20+ foot ceilings. Skip them in racked storage areas with limited vertical clearance — they need open space to work.
