CMX HVLS (High Volume, Low Speed) Fans

Description

Continental Fan’s New CMX HVLS Fans are designed to redistribute heated or cooled air to floor level. These high volume, low speed fans eliminate temperature layers in the ceiling space and create a more comfortable environment inside a building. When a CMX Fan is integrated with an HVAC system, the net result is energy savings and CO₂ emission reduction.

Challenges of Cooling and Heating Industrial and Commercial Spaces
In summertime, the impact of stratification may be evident on the floor of industrial spaces, such as machine shops. The heat generated from machines can be unbearable. Since the higher strata layers resist a change in temperature, much of the heat on the shop floor is retained, providing little relief to the occupants.

In the winter, the greater the difference between the outdoor air and indoor air near the ceiling, the greater the heat loss through the roof. Often times the heat required for occupant comfort will rise toward the ceiling and the space will continue to call for heat. Occupants are not comfortable and energy is wasted.

The HVLS (High Volume, Low Speed) Fan Solution
For occupant comfort, the temperature needs to be controlled for the first 6 feet from the floor. Installing CMX Fans will optimize occupant comfort during the heating and cooling seasons as well as reducing energy costs in an environmentally friendly way.
