HVLS industrial fans: reducing CO2 emissions in industry

In a context where sustainability and energy efficiency are a priority, HVLS industrial fans have become the best allies for reducing energy consumption in large spaces.

These fans not only optimise air circulation, but also help to reduce the need for more intensive air conditioning systems.

The enormous amount of polluting gases that are constantly being emitted into the atmosphere are accelerating the process of combating climate change, making it the greatest threat of the 21st century not only to the environment, but also to businesses, economies, citizens and future generations.

Regarding CO2 emissions, did you know that in Spain they increased by almost 5% in 2015? That’s right, and despite complying with the Kyoto Protocol (thanks to the purchase of emission rights from third countries), the carbon dioxide emissions released into the atmosphere increased last year for the second consecutive year, breaking a trend of sharp decline that began in 2008, due to the crisis.

Thus, Spain is the European country in which emissions have increased the most during this period (53.4 million tonnes of CO2) and the lack of measures established to combat global warming will increase its weight in the European system of emission rights by 10%, which will ultimately lead to major economic, social and environmental consequences.

At Magnovent we are committed to the fight against climate change, and we consider it essential to practice smart consumption, which is why we include in each of our work processes behaviours and habits that respect the environment. Likewise, our HVLS industrial fans meet the criteria of energy efficiency and industrial sustainability, which makes them ideal integral solutions for any installation that is committed to environmental care.

Conventional air conditioning (HVAC) systems are an effective and powerful solution for maintaining a comfortable temperature in any facility. However, they use a large amount of energy to do so, which does not make them sustainable and energy-efficient systems.

To avoid this level of energy consumption, and thus reduce CO2 emissions, Magnovent recommends combining HVAC systems with HVLS industrial fans, as in addition to using less energy for air conditioning, it improves ventilation and air quality, distributing it evenly throughout the space.

The main reason why it is very important to install HVLS industrial fans in industrial buildings or buildings with high ceilings is to solve any energy, humidity or process saving problems in large spaces. HVLS industrial ceiling fans are ideal both in the summer months creating a light indoor breeze that offers greater comfort. Also, during the winter months, this type of fan allows to homogenise the temperature of the interior avoiding that the heat of the space remains in the upper layers of the air.

Another main reason why you should install HVLS industrial fans is the energy savings, as during the summer months you will save 25% and in the winter months you can save on heating 45%.

At Magnovent we carry out a complete study of the needs of each space. In this way we ensure and guarantee the best solution to suit your project.
