HVLS ceiling industrial fans from Diamond are thought to be installed in the ceilings of big warehouses and buildings of high ceilings. The acronym HVLS in these ceiling fans means “High-Volume Low-Speed” as they move a high volume of air at low rpm because of their big blades. This HVLS technology increases comfort reducing thermal sensation to up to 6ºC and, in combination with the existing HVAC systems, generates up to 30% annual energy savings.
WHY CHOOSE DIAMOND HVLS CEILING INDUSTRIAL FANS?
At Diamond, we carry out a complete study of your needs in order to offer the solution that best suits your project. For ventilation solutions in summer, we work following these two mandatory rules:
Ensure an airspeed higher than 0.5m/s in the whole ventilated area. Select the right motor power depending on the ceiling height.
In buildings with HVAC systems, we calculate the ROI adapted to any case and make special training for our customers to ensure the most efficient operation of their HVAC system in combination with the HVLS fans. ROI is lower than two years in 90% of the projects.
WHY INSTALLING HVLS CEILING INDUSTRIAL FANS?
The most important reason to install HVLS fans is that they can solve any comfort, energy savings, humidity or process issue in big spaces.
In warehouses or buildings without HVAC systems, during the summer months, HVLS ceiling industrial fans create an indoor breeze that increases occupants’ comfort and also extract heat from any opened door or window. Additionally, during the winter months, these fans homogenize the inside temperature, avoiding that heat stays on the top air coats.
If we add HVAC systems in the project, by homogenizing the temperature of the space we get a total control over it. Additionally, thanks to the air movement generated by the HVLS fans, climate systems can reduce significantly their workload providing energy savings of 25% in summer and 45% in winter.
In terms of airflow, traditional fans move around 10.000m3/h of air, so we need between 40 and 50 fans to reach the air volume of a single HVLS industrial fan. Furthermore, as these fans are installed very high, the air won’t arrive to the floor and will return no effect. The installation cost and noise for these traditional fans is not affordable.
WHERE CAN WE INSTALL HVLS CEILING INDUSTRIAL FANS?
HVLS ceiling industrial fans are installed mainly in high buildings and opened spaces with a large number of people. Diamond has installed ceiling industrial fans in large warehouses, logistics centers, shopping centers, stations, airports, pavilions …
