Today is National Heat Awareness Day. Working in hot indoor environments, such as warehouses with poor air circulation, manufacturing plants, bakeries, food processing and food production facilities, becomes even more hazardous during the upcoming hot weather.

Make sure that you are doing everything you can to avoid heat stress, especially when working in hot environments:

  • Drink plenty of water. It is recommended to drink 1 cup every 15-20 minutes during moderate activity in moderate heat.
  • Take heat stress breaks in a cool area to cool down.
  • Wear breathable clothing.

Cooling Down Warehouses, Plants and Large Areas

We have ways to help make hot working environments more comfortable to reduce the need for frequent heat stress breaks.  We have a wide range of fans that can cool from every direction. As a result, you can quickly improve the working environment which will increase employee retention.

Cool from the Ceiling Down

HVLS fans push air down to create an evaporative cooling to make workers feel up to 8°F cooler, reducing the number of heat stress breaks needed.

In addition, it can lower your energy bills. HVLS fans can save up to 30% on cooling costs and 25% on heating costs.

Cool from the Ground Up

The AtomikAir cools from the ground up. By adding the summer hood to the AtomikAir Air Filtration System, it deflects clean and cool air directly into the workplace.

Additionally, the AtomikAir removes dust, germs and dirt from the air to make it easier for everyone to breath and prevents dust build-up.

Finally, we have high-velocity fans which cool from the side. This cooling fan’s cooling effect can be felt up to 140 feet away. Furthermore, we have eight different mounting options and food-grade stainless steel options, so we have a fan that will work for your space.
