“ The Essence fans in our showroom keep the space warm in the winter and they look cool. When we installed the first Essence, it was -28°F outside and the side of the showroom with the fan felt so much warmer than the side without. You could walk through and immediately feel the difference.
Winters in Baxter, MN, are just plain cold. The city’s average daily lows in January hover at -4°F (-20°C). When it came time for Dondelinger Chevrolet to build a new facility, this family-owned dealership sought a way to reduce their winter heating costs by recirculating heat within the space.
Dondelinger Chevrolet installed four Big Ass Fans® throughout the new facility, including two custom-painted 12-ft (3.6-m) diameter Essence® fans in the main showroom. These fans operate at lower speeds during the winter months to push down heat trapped at the ceiling—without creating a draft—to leave customers feeling comfortable no matter the temperature. During the summer months, the fans are cranked up to create a 10°F (5.6°C) cooling effect that allows thermostat setpoints to be raised and offering significant energy savings.
No matter the season, we've got you covered. Get in touch with us to learn more about our fans.
