Fan & Cooler Combo Solutions
By combining HVLS fans with evaporative air coolers, it is possible to create a cooling system that is both energy-efficient and effective at regulating temperature and improving air quality in large, open spaces. This can be particularly useful in industrial and commercial settings where there is a need to maintain a comfortable temperature for employees or customers.

When and Why did the "Fan & Cooler Combo” Concept Start?
RTFANS today is the leading brand of HVLS fan and air cooler products and the leading solution provider for large space ventilation and cooling in China. RTFANS started its evaporative cooler business in early 2003. After seven years of development, the RTFANS management team found that evaporative coolers cannot always satisfy customers due to high ducting costs and high humidity issues. In 2008 HVLS fan products entered into China market. In 2010 one friend of the RTFANS owner introduced the HVLS fan product to the management team. When studying the product specifications, there is a spark of an idea.
It seems that an HVLS fan can reduce ducting costs significantly while providing ample enough airflow and helping to reduce humidity—The best match! This is how and when the “fan & cooler combo” concept started. After that, RTFANS spent about years putting this concept into reality. In the last ten years, the RTFANS team combined HVLS fans with evaporative coolers and made thousands of installations in China and SEA countries. This system is approved to be very efficient and cost-saving. It is the best and ONLY energy-saving choice today for all large and medium-sized space ventilation and cooling. Until today the fan and a more flexible combo system are used in China and South East Asia countries and spread rapidly to the rest of the world. Good ideas are always worth spreading.
Why "Fan & Cooler Combo”?
The concept is to use both advantages of the two products. The unique advantage of the air cooler is that it can drop air temperature with only 20% power consumption compared to traditional AC, but need air ducting to hang on the ceiling which impacts space utilization and image. The unique advantage of HVLS is the high volume low-speed air movement ability, each fan enables to cover more than 1,000 square meters, but can’t get temperature drop; Fan & Cooler Combo takes both advantages and can provide optimized ventilation and cooling environment for users.
With fresh cooled air from the air cooler and high volume low-speed air movement from the HVLS fan, you will get a perfect environment with the lowest cost; fresh cooled air can be distributed evenly into the inner space where you need it.
Compare with using only one product, it cost too much for an air cooler to use the ducting system but only gets spot cooling; HVLS fan can make air circulation but it’s not enough because in the hot season people need cooled air.
Fan and cooler combo realize a perfect solution for big space cooling and ventilation, no matter indoor or outdoor.
Fan & Cooler Combo Advantages
- Fresh and cooled air is dispensed into every corner of the building, bringing a soft breeze in all directions.
- High volume, low noise, better environment.
- No ducting in the building, cost-saving, and space utilized, neat, and easy to organize.
- The system can be used together or independently: In the hot season, the fan & cooler combo system work the best; in the less hot seasons, can use an HVLS fan only for ventilation.
More questions about Fan & Cooler Combo
Can HVLS fan and air cooler be combined with other ventilation products? Surely yes! Where can the “Fan and cooler combo” System be used? HVLS fan and Air cooler combined system can be used in almost all large or medium-sized space areas, including industrial applications such as factories, warehouses, and distribution centers; commercial applications like schools, stadiums, sports centers, airports/bus stations/terminals, restaurant, and even church, prayer room, gym and hotel lobby.
- Increase ventilation: Increasing ventilation can help to dissipate heat and improve air circulation in the workshop. This can be done by installing fans or opening windows or doors to allow for natural ventilation.
- Use reflective materials: Reflective materials can be used on the roof and walls to reflect sunlight and reduce the amount of heat absorbed by the workshop.
- Implement a heat stress prevention program: A heat stress prevention program can include measures such as providing workers with breaks in a cooler area, providing them with cool drinks, and encouraging them to wear lightweight, breathable clothing.
- Encourage workers to take breaks: Allowing workers to take breaks in a cooler area can help to reduce the effects of heat stress and improve productivity.
It is important to address the high temperature and lack of ventilation in the workshop as it can have negative impacts on the productivity and quality of the products being produced. High temperatures can lead to heat stress, which can cause fatigue and decreased productivity in workers. Additionally, high temperatures can also lead to increased rates of product defects.
There are several steps that the home appliance company can take to address the high temperature and lack of ventilation in the workshop:
Install air conditioning: Air conditioning can help to lower the temperature and increase the comfort level in the workshop.
The RTFANS team has designed a system to improve the ventilation and cooling in the workshop. The installation of air coolers on the walls and HVLS fans on the ceiling should help to deliver fresh and cooled air throughout the building and improve the overall comfort level for workers.
It is important to ensure that the air coolers and HVLS fans are properly sized and positioned for maximum effectiveness. The air coolers should be placed in strategic locations to ensure that they are able to deliver cooled air to the desired areas, and the HVLS fans should be positioned at a sufficient height to allow the airflow to circulate throughout the building.
