Ask about the area that HVLS fans can actually cover\u00a0<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The whole point of buying the HVLS fans is to know about the area they will cover to provide the cooling effect. Its area mainly depends on the diameter of the HVLS fans and the height of the cleaning in your facility. Make sure to get the actual data and insights about the area covered rather than relying on the general assessment.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Ask_about_the_airflow_capacity_of_the_HVLS_fans\"><\/span><strong>2. Ask about the airflow capacity of the HVLS fans\u00a0<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Airflow capacity is checked in cubic feet per minute. You can check the rating for the fans you need. A good ranting indicates a better performance and circulation of the air.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Check_if_the_fans_are_relevant_for_your_facility_or_not\"><\/span><strong>3. Check if the fans are relevant for your facility or not\u00a0<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Not all fans can fit every facility. There is a variety of HVLS fans that are made for different facilities and use cases. Make sure to check the model and read the specification for a particular area that fits right with your facility.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Ask_about_the_cleaning_height\"><\/span><strong>4. Ask about the cleaning height<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Ceiling height is an important metric in deciding the type of fan for your facility. Buy the ceiling fan according to your facility type and height.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Look_for_the_safety_certifications_on_the_fans\"><\/span><strong>5. Look for the safety certifications on the fans\u00a0<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Buying a fan that has passed all the safety certifications and is made according to the standards set for a particular industry is crucial for the better functioning and safety of the workers or customers.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Ask_about_the_motor_used_in_the_HVS_fan\"><\/span><strong>6. Ask about the motor used in the HVS fan\u00a0<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Knowing about the motor used in the fans is crucial for many reasons. You should buy the fans that have a motor that needs less maintenance and also does not cause any noise pollution when moving.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Ask_about_the_energy_consumption_of_the_HVLS_fan\"><\/span><strong>7. Ask about the energy consumption of the HVLS fan\u00a0<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Ask about the energy consumption of the fan. This will help you to determine the operational cost of the fan and can estimate its overall cost.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_What_Will_the_Warranty_Cover\"><\/span><strong>8. What Will the Warranty Cover?\u00a0<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Know what the warranty covers for components, including motors, controllers, blades, etc. A full warranty can indicate that the supplier has confidence in their products.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_Expected_Maintenance_Costss_5_Years_after_Purchase\"><\/span><strong>#9. Expected Maintenance Costs(s) 5 Years after Purchase\u00a0<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Most suppliers will avoid talking about this question with the buyer.<\/p>\n<p>Total cost of ownership is different than the initial purchase amount. Obtain the maintenance schedule, required spare parts &amp; their cost, when services will be performed, and how often you can expect service-related downtime due to repairs. A lower cost could result in a higher TCO due to repairs and maintenance over the life of the equipment.<\/p>\n<p>When purchasing, consider TCO for your decision-making process, not just initial cost.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_Is_It_Easy_to_Get_Replacement_Parts\"><\/span><strong>10. Is It Easy to Get Replacement Parts?\u00a0<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Disruption of operations can happen when there is a delay in getting spare parts.

Does the Fan Make a Lot of Noise When Operating?\u00a0<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The level of noise produced is an important factor for organizations such as manufacturing companies, schools or commercial properties.

Does This Fan Work with Building Management Systems?\u00a0<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If your facility uses centralized control, check to see if your fan is capable of using smart controls and automation.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"13_Do_You_Provide_Assistance_with_Installation\"><\/span><strong>13. Do You Provide Assistance with Installation?\u00a0<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Inquire whether your supplier will perform a site inspection, assist with the installation or provide certified installation.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"14_Are_there_any_Additional_Expenses\"><\/span><strong>14. Are there any Additional Expenses?\u00a0<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Find out what costs you can expect in addition to those associated with the fan; such as mounting hardware, controller(s), transportation, installation, training and\/ or maintenance contracts.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"15_Are_There_Performance_References_Available_from_the_Supplier\"><\/span><strong>15.
