HEAT YOUR FACILITY WITH FANS?
Of course! The idea, known as de-stratification, works like this: strategically place a number of HVLS fans throughout your facility, and turn them on at a slow speed in the FORWARD direction. The fans should move air, but not create a breeze you can feel (a bit of experimentation will help you find the “sweet spot” for your building). This will facilitate a mixing of warm and cool air in a vertical, circular pattern. Over time, a continuous mixing of air will promote a more uniform temperature profile from floor to ceiling.
The key is the redistribution of warm air from the ceiling. More warmth at the floor level means thermostat set points are maintained for longer intervals. Heating cycles shorten in both frequency and duration, adding dollars back to your bottom line. Realized savings could be 25-30% or more!
