Why HVLS Fans Aren’t Just for Summer.

When you think of High Volume Low Speed (HVLS) fans, cooling might be the first thing that comes to mind. And yes—these giants move a massive amount of air, making them ideal for summer. But did you know HVLS fans are just as effective in winter?

Here’s why:

In Summer:
HVLS fans create a gentle, non-disruptive breeze that lowers the perceived temperature by up to 6–8°C, improving comfort without overworking your air conditioning system.

In Winter:
Warm air rises—especially in warehouses and high-ceilinged spaces. HVLS fans work in reverse to gently push that trapped heat back down to occupant level. This process, known as destratification, reduces energy waste and keeps your heating system from working overtime.

The Result?
Lower heating costs, improved comfort, and a more energy-efficient workspace all year round.

At Fanmaster, our HVLS fan range is designed for Australian conditions, helping you maintain comfort and cut energy costs—whatever the season.
