For the past decade, athletic venues such as stadiums, practice centers and gymnasiums have enjoyed the benefits of Big Ass Fans' unequaled air movement. With the introduction of our commercial line, Big Ass Fans' technology is now being applied to conditioned, sound-sensitive educational facilities including libraries, auditoriums, cafeterias, and multipurpose facilities.

 

The 8-10 ft Isis® and 12-20 ft
Element® are more than just comfort controllers; these commercial-grade air movers are engineered to effectively and silently distribute conditioned air, decreasing dependence on air conditioning in the summer and recirculating trapped heat in the winter
