Rite-Hite Corporation, Milwaukee, Wis., introduces the Revolution® SP Fan. Designed to deliver optimal performance, the stylish High-Volume/Low-Speed (HVLS) fan supplements heated and cooled air for more efficient and cost-effective air circulation in virtually any commercial facility. A single Revolution SP Fan circulates a large volume of air up to 50 feet from the fan’s center in all directions for optimum heating or cooling of an area encompassing 7,800 square feet. Unlike traditional floor and ceiling fans, the easy-to-operate and extraordinarily quiet fan turns slowly to gently move air – reducing a facility’s energy consumption by 20 to 30 percent. Available in 8-, 10, – and 12-foot diameters, the Revolution SP Fan’s four-blade design includes easy-to-use controls that allow users to adjust fan speed, or operate the unit in reverse. The unit comes standard with polished aluminum blades. The blades can also be painted to match the operating environment. Mounting heights range from 10 to 30 feet from the finished floor to the bottom of the fan blade. Also available is a touch-screen control box for operation of up to 18 Revolution SP Fans. The unique design of the Revolution SP Fan directs air outward from the center in a conical shape, eliminating dead-air holes directly beneath the fan and in building corners – translating to more uniform airflow from floor to ceiling and from wall to wall. For maximum longevity, the Revolution SP boasts a rotationally balanced blade/hub connection along with vibration-absorbing resilient material that reduces stress to the hub by 50 to 75 percent. A robust motor and an extruded, precision-milled aluminum hub provide reliable operation with virtually no maintenance. For ease of installation, the Revolution SP Fan features a steel universal mounting bracket. The mounting system also includes a beam clamp, motor housing, and a three-way motor-to-hub safety connection. The Revolution SP Fan comes with a three-year parts and one-year customer satisfaction money-back guarantee in addition to a 10-year structural integrity warranty.
