HVLS Wall Fans

What is HVLS Wall Fans

 

 

HVLS stands for "High-Volume, Low Speed," and is used to describe the fact that these large fans move a high volume of air while spinning at a low rotational speed. More specifically, an HVLS wall fans is defined as any mechanical fan measuring more than seven feet in diameter.

 

Benefits of HVLS Wall Fans
 

Save space HVLS wall fans don't take up any floor space. That makes them ideal for spaces where you need to move freely, like gyms, garages, or workshops. If you have a vaulted ceiling or a factory ceiling, ceiling fans are difficult to install. Wall-mounted fans are an excellent alternative.

 

Stay safe HVLS wall fans don't leave wires on the floor that can trip you. They reduce the chances of children or pets getting caught in the wires or blades. Wall mounting leaves your floors clear.

 

Excellent air circulation While ceiling fans push air down, wall mounted fans push air through space. You can send cooling breezes in one direction or direct the fan to oscillate. HVLS wall fans are excellent at moving cool air through rooms and removing warm air. You'll feel fresh and cool in a room with wall-mounted fans.

 

Stay cool outdoors HVLS wall fans are a good choice for outdoor patios and decks. The lack of outdoor wires reduces the risk of electrical shock. Always choose wet-rated fans for outdoor use.

 

Great for greenhouses Plants in greenhouses and grow rooms need regular air circulation. The air helps maintain even temperatures, provide ventilation and prevent plant rot. All plants need ventilation, and some flowering plants specifically need regular breezes to grow.

 

Stay cool and dry HVLS wall fans are excellent at drying sweat from skin. You will feel cool and dry in a room with wall fans. They are ideal for basements, gyms, and recreation rooms.

 

Commercial uses HVLS wall fans are excellent in commercial settings. If you have a restaurant or other business with an outdoor deck, a fan will keep the temperature comfortable for your employees and customers. Wall-mounted fans also help keep bugs away. Choose wet-rated fans to avoid corrosion and electrical shock.

 

Adjustable angle This is the angle of the fan head to the wall. For most HVLS wall fans applications the ideal solution is to have the fan mounted above head height so that it will not be likely to be knocked and will be less likely tampered with. You can easily adjust the airflow by directing the head of the fan to the desired room area.

 

Speeds Speed control is important, maybe because you don't need the fan running at full speed, or it blows the papers of your desk or perhaps it's too noisy. Generally, our advice is to select a fan that is as big as you can reasonably accommodate and to run it at low or medium speed, rather than have a smaller fan that will inevitably need to be running at full speed. This way, your HVLS wall fans will meet your requirements in less intrusive way and will last longer.

What are the Differences HVLS Wall Fans & Ceiling Fans?
 

HVLS wall fans

HVLS wall fans create more directional airflow, and many have an automatic oscillation feature or a pivoting head that can be positioned to direct that air where you most need it. While these versatile fans don't require hard-wiring, they do need to be mounted on a wall and usually come with the mounting hardware included. Then simply plug them into a standard 120V outlet. There are some models that can be used with a 220-240V power source, if needed.

 

Ceiling fans

Ceiling fans not only provide cooling airflow in the summer, they can also provide destratification—pulling warm air down into living spaces during the winter—by setting them to circulate in the clockwise position. However, they are normally hard-wired into the ceiling and, depending on your knowledge and skill, they may require outside help to install. If this sounds like what you may need, take a look at our selection of ceiling fans.

Commercial spaces
Any commercial or industrial space without ducted ventilation needs air circulation and, when floor-space is at a premium, a HVLS wall fans is a great solution. Small warehouses or packing/assembly lines, outdoor eating areas, food-trucks, groomers, salons, and many other businesses can benefit from using a wall mounted fan to keep things comfortable.

Greenhouses & indoor grow areas
Greenhouses and growing spaces need a significant amount of airflow and circulation. With the addition of grow lights, dehumidifiers, and water usage, adequate ventilation is required for:
● Even temperature distribution
● Reduction in mildew and plant rot
● Plant respiration

Garages & workshops
Garages, sheds, and workshops are subject to hot conditions, usually because they lack air conditioning or cross-room window ventilation. Tight working areas may also lack adequate floor space or a window, making a floor fan or portable air conditioner impractical. A HVLS wall fans can provide much needed airflow for more comfortable conditions.

Residential use
With people spending more time at home, basements, home gyms, play rooms, and other areas can need additional air circulation to avoid stale air and stuffiness. When floor space is limited, or the room is awkwardly angled or tightly constructed, ventilation can be difficult. A HVLS wall fans is a safe way to generate needed airflow, even into tight spaces or corners, without endangering children and pets.

Outdoor spaces
Outdoor decks and patios are gathering spots for home-owners and restaurant or café-owners alike. Other outdoor work areas like loading docks, flea markets, and outdoor shops, can also benefit from a cooling mist. Where limited space, occupancy, and heat are a factor, a HVLS wall fans may be a potential solution.

 

 
How to Clean a HVLS Wall Fans Weekly
 
 
Safety first

Before cleaning any type of fan, make sure that the unit is unplugged from the wall outlet or, for battery-powered fans, that the unit is in the off position.

 
Blast away blade dust

For weekly cleaning, you do not need to disassemble the HVLS Wall Fans to clean the blades. Use a hairdryer or compressed air to blow away dust from the surface of the blades. Use the coolest air setting on the hairdryer and keep it about six to ten inches away from the blades.Be sure to turn the fan around to clean the backside of the blades in the same manner.

 
Vacuum away dust

Using a handheld or full-sized vacuum with a dusting brush attachment, carefully go over all of the surfaces on the fan. Start at the top of the fan and vacuum the solid (for bladeless fans, the interior of the ring) or wire protective housing. Pay extra attention to the dust accumulation on the motor exhaust vents and the electrical cord.

 
Wipe away smudges

Dampen a microfiber cloth lightly and wipe away any smudges on the housing, especially around the controls. If you have a pedestal fan, clean the pole and the base.

 

 

 
How to Thoroughly Clean a HVLS Wall Fans
 
1

Work safely Turn the unit to the off position. Unplug electrical fans and remove batteries from battery-powered HVLS wall fans.

2

Disassemble outer housing components Using the appropriate type of screwdriver, loosen the screws holding the wire housing in place. Many HVLS wall fans also have clips that hold the wire mesh in place, Remove those as well. You may find that the rear wire housing is held onto the motor housing by a heavy-duty nut and cannot be removed until the blades have been removed. Be sure to keep all of the screws and small parts in a small container so that they don't get lost.

3

Remove the blades Most HVLS wall fans have a blade cap that holds the fan blades to the motor housing. Unscrew the cap on the front and remove each blade.

4

Mix a cleaning solution Place 3 cups of cool water in a spray bottle and add 2 teaspoons of a dishwashing liquid that contains a grease cutter. Shake to mix well.

5

Spray and clean Place the wire housing and the blades of the fan in a large sink or bathtub. Spray thoroughly with the dishwashing liquid mixture. Wait a couple of minutes so the dishwashing liquid can cut through the grime. Then, use a microfiber cloth to wipe down every surface.

6

Rinse and dry Rinse every component well with cool water. Use a dry microfiber cloth to dry every component. Place the parts in a breezy, sunny area to air-dry for at least 30 minutes. Each piece should be totally dry before reassembling the HVLS wall fans.

7

Clean the rest of the fan While the HVLS wall fans is disassembled, clean the remaining components as you would during weekly cleaning. Pay particular attention to the area where the blades attach. Use a vacuum dust brush to remove any dust that may be trapped.

8

Reassemble the fan Remembering the order the HVLS wall fans was disassembled, start with the last piece removed and reattach it to the motor base. There should be no small parts leftover after a proper reassembly!

 

 
Types of HVLS Wall Fans
 

Direct drive HVLS wall fans
These fans are integrated with a motor that is directly connected to the blades. They operate with minimal noise and offer high efficiency.

 

Belt-drive HVLS wall fans
These fans are equipped with a motor that drives the blades using a belt. They are ideal for large areas and can be adjusted to different speeds.

 

Gear-drive HVLS wall fans
These fans consist of a motor that powers the blades through gears. They are sturdy and efficient.

 

Axial HVLS wall fans
These fans are engineered to move high volumes of air at low speeds. They are best suited for industrial and commercial settings.

 

Centrifugal HVLS wall fans
These fans operate using centrifugal force to move the air. They are powerful and easy to maintain.

 

 

Tips to Select the Right HVLS Wall Fans For You

Consider the location of the HVLS wall fans
As mentioned above, a HVLS wall fans can prove to be a better option than ceiling fans at some places like restaurants, kitchens, garages, outdoor patios, etc. Now, do know that every outdoor location mentioned before differs from the others. So you'd need to check for factors like size, available space, speed, oscillation, adjustable angles, etc. before you buy a fan. Consult a technician to guide you to find your best match.

Choose the right size/right number

Just like ceiling fans, HVLS wall fans come in different sizes. Depending on how large the area is, you can choose the right size of fans or the number of fans you need to install. For a normal room, a fan with 400 mm sweep would be perfect.

Check the available speeds

This is one of the most important factors after the size of the HVLS wall fans that you should check. It's always good to have a fan with variable speeds. Because different people have different inclinations for fan speeds. Some may like to run it on full speed throughout the year, while some may like to use the fan on low speed during winters. When you have variable speeds, it's always more convenient.

Check the sturdiness of the fan

As far as domestic usage is concerned, lightweight fans are ideal, provided the material isn't weak. Such fans are normally made of plastic. However, do ensure that you are buying a fan that is made from the best quality material.

 

The difference between HVLS wall fans and Ceiling Fans (HVLS)

Installation location
Wall HVLS wall fans
These HVLS wall fans are installed on the walls, typically at a height that allows them to blow air horizontally across the floor or other specific areas. They are commonly used in settings where ceiling space is limited or when a specific airflow pattern is desired.

Ceiling HVLS fans
These fans are installed on the ceiling, typically suspended from the ceiling structure. They are designed to circulate air in large spaces from overhead, creating a downward flow that helps cool the entire area. Ceiling HVLS fans are often utilized in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, gymnasiums, and other large open spaces.

 

Airflow direction
Wall HVLS wall fans
HVLS wall fans are primarily designed to create a horizontal airflow pattern, moving air parallel to the floor or specific areas. They can be positioned to blow air in a specific direction or to cover a targeted region.

Ceiling HVLS fans
Ceiling fans are designed to generate a vertical or downward airflow pattern. They move large volumes of air from the ceiling towards the floor, creating a gentle breeze throughout the space. The downward airflow helps with cooling, air circulation, and destratification (reducing temperature differences between the ceiling and floor).

 

Space coverage
Wall HVLS wall fans
Due to their horizontal airflow pattern, wall-mounted HVLS wall fans are effective in localized or targeted areas. They are suitable for applications where a specific zone requires air movement or where ceiling-mounted fans are impractical.

Ceiling HVLS fans
Ceiling HVLS Fans: Ceiling-mounted HVLS fans are designed to cover larger areas and provide overall air circulation in expansive spaces. They are capable of moving air effectively across vast floor areas, ensuring consistent airflow throughout the entire space.

 

 

Application of HVLS Wall Fans

 

 

Homes and residential use
Closed areas like basements, home gyms, playrooms, etc. need powerful air circulation to avoid stuffiness. Small rooms with tightly packed spacing and furniture can present additional problems concerning ventilation. However, with a wall-mounted HVLS wall fans, you can generate sufficient air flow throughout the room including small spaces and tight corners.

Kitchen
Kitchens are the heart and soul of every home. While it is the area in the house where drool-worthy meals are prepared, it is also the one part of your home where you sweat the most. With overhead lights taking up considerable space in your ceiling, most homes will not have space for a ceiling fan. Put an end to feeling miserable in your kitchen by installing a wall-mounted HVLS wall fans. Place it about your cabinets or on the corner of one of the walls to create adequate circulation and ventilation.

Garages
Closed and tight working spaces like garages, workshops or sheds can quickly accumulate hot air. Besides, these spaces very often have limited floor space or an available window to install air conditioning. Things like workstation benches, parked vehicles, tools, etc. can impede table or pedestal fans. Such spaces can benefit from compact but powerful wall-mounted fans.

Patios and outdoor spaces
Patios and outdoor areas need not necessarily be only for homes. Restaurants, beach-front and commercial properties sometimes have open spaces designed for socialising and dining. However, not all these properties can have vast open spaces. Small outdoor areas can get heated quickly particularly if it caters to a large number of patrons. In this situation, a wall-mounted fans for outdoors can help keep temperatures down and provide much-needed circulation.

Greenhouses
Greenhouses and indoor growing spaces need considerable air circulation and ventilation. These spaces have a lot of humidifiers and lighting to help plants grow. However, this also results in a lot of humid and moist air being trapped inside. An oscillating wall-mounted HVLS wall fans can help distribute air evenly to prevent drying in plants, mould and rot setting in.

 

Features of wall-mounted fans

Size – This is the first feature to consider while opting for a HVLS wall fans. The size of your fan must be able to produce sufficient airflow and ventilation.

Build quality – The best HVLS wall fans are generally lightweight making them perfect for domestic use in homes and offices. However, for industrial properties, ensure you get a sturdier fan as domestic ones are likely to get damaged.

Oscillation – While oscillation in a HVLS wall fans is a must-have feature, look for fans where you have an option to turn it off. This way you can get your fan to blow air in a particular direction if needed.

Speeds – Speed control is an essential feature for your HVLS wall fans and one that you must pay attention to. If it is too fast, it might blow papers off your desk or will be too noisy. Too slow and there will be improper circulation of air. With multiple speed settings, you can set your fan to work according to the amount of distribution you need.

Remote control – Certain HVLS wall fans come with a remote control option. While this is not an absolute necessity, having a wall mounted fan with remote control can help in offices and commercial establishments. You can quickly turn your fans on and off and control speeds without manually operating it.

Asked Questions
 

Q: Where should HVLS fans be placed?

A: Just to review, your HVLS fan will operate best in open areas where the air can move freely from your ceiling to your floor and outward in every direction. Never place your fan near a wall or other obstruction because this will inhibit the airflow and limit the effective coverage area.

Q: Where is the best place to put a wall fan?

A: Wall fans work best in open spaces without obstructions that may block the flow of air in the room. As such, we suggest installing your fan on an open wall or in an open area where there is no furniture, art, or homeware that will block it's ability to function effectively.

Q: What is the ideal height for a wall fan from the floor?

A: The height at which you mount your fan may depend on several factors, such as air circulation and the size of your space. In some cases, mounted fans are required to be at least five feet above the floor. Others suggest a specific amount of clearance from the ceiling.

Q: How long can a wall fan stay on?

A: I leave mine running 24/7 during the summer. It's a relatively inexpensive way to increase the comfort level in a home. Moving air is always cooling, by nature, and quality ceiling fans are designed to be run for extended periods. Keep their cooling vents clear so the motors don't overheat and enjoy the breeze!

Q: When should you not use a fan?

A: Fans do not cool the air, so air currents flowing over the body must be cooler than your body temperature to cool you down. When indoor air temperatures are hotter than about 95 °F: Fan use may cause your body to gain heat instead of lose it.

Q: Is a wall fan better than an air cooler?

A: Unlike a fan, an air cooler releases cool air instead of circulating warm air, which will have a more noticeable effect on the temperature. This temperature will also be felt across the whole room, instead of the focus point that a fan cools. Some also have a heating function, making them useful in the winter as well.

Q: How effective is wall fans?

A: You can send cooling breezes in one direction or direct the fan with the oscillating feature across a wider area. Wall fans are excellent at moving cool air through rooms and removing warm air.

Q: What are the benefits of a wall fan?

A: A wall mount fan can provide much needed airflow for more comfortable conditions. With people spending more time at home, basements, home gyms, play rooms, and other areas can need additional air circulation to avoid stale air and stuffiness.

Q: What is the difference between a cabin fan and a wall fan?

A: While a ceiling fan circulates air, wall-mounted fans push air around the area they are installed in. A ceiling fan only pushes the air down. By installing a wall-mounted fan, you will be able to save floor space, circulate air conditioning and add instant evaporative air movement.

Q: Can a wall fan cool a room?

A: While ceiling fans push air down, wall mounted fans push air through space. You can send cooling breezes in one direction or direct the fan to oscillate. Wall fans are excellent at moving cool air through rooms and removing warm air. You'll feel fresh and cool in a room with wall-mounted fans.

Q: What direction do wall fans rotate?

A: Set the fan to rotate in an anticlockwise direction in the summer to create a cooling breeze and a clockwise direction in the winter to distribute warm air.

Q: What is the minimum distance between fan and wall?

A: Tip: Ceiling fan blades should be at least 18 inches from the walls. If there isn't enough clearance between the blades and the walls, air will not efficiently circulate.

Q: How far should a fan hang from the ceiling?

A: For optimal airflow you will typically find the blades will hang 10 inches from the ceiling (larger fans may need more space). This insures the fan passes building code when installed from a standard 8 foot ceiling.

Q: Do wall fans use a lot of electricity?

A: It usually takes 0.033 kWh to run a fan per hour. Running it the whole night will use 0.264kWh. Fans consume 5.54 kWh per week and 22.17 kWh a month.

Q: How often should you clean your wall fan?

A: Cleaning your fan(s) once a week will help keep the dust down to a minimum, so you don't have to deep clean the fan as often. If your fan has an air filter, check it periodically to ensure that it is clean so the fan can run efficiently and effectively.

Q: Is it OK to leave a fan on all night?

A: Consumer safety charity, Electrical Safety First, says that leaving your fan on at night could put you at risk if a fault occurs within your device while you're sleeping. Yup, we're talking a one-way ticket to a house fire.

Q: Why you shouldn't sleep with a fan on?

A: Air from your fan can irritate your sinuses and dry out your nose, mouth, and throat. In response to this, your body may start to overproduce mucus, which can cause congestion (stuffy nose) and headaches. Additionally, sleeping with a fan can cause a sore throat.

Q: Are ceiling fans better than wall fans?

A: Each space offers unique needs and challenges. So, if you need directional, high velocity air movement, then add wall mount fans. If you need quiet wide-range, efficient air movement, then ceiling fans are what you should go with.

Q: Why is my wall fan so loud?

A: Overtime, dirt and grime build up on the fan blades can cause the fan to become noisy. Make sure that the fan blades are clean. If the fan is worn out or damaged, it may begin to make noise as it spins. We recommend you to check for wear and tear of the fan.

Q: Why do wall fans make noise?

A: Accumulated dirt can cause noise because it can unbalance fan blades and wear out bearings. After every two weeks of use, vacuum a fan with a crevice-cleaning attachment. At least twice during the summer, wipe dirt from the blades with a damp sponge. Check to see if there are external parts that are loose.
