Stagnant Air and Lack of Ventilation
MacroAir fans gently increase airflow to enhance ventilation in agricultural structures. Remove stagnant air, humidity, and airborne pathogens to reduce the risk of mold and disease development.
-
Heat Stress
MacroAir fans destratify air to remove heat pockets from around crops and livestock. The increased air movement reduces the risk of heat stress and maintains temperatures for optimal crop growth and increased animal production.

Pest Issues
MacroAir fans disrupt pest flight patterns, therefore reducing their ability to reach plants and animals. In addition, the increased airflow helps keep flies off animals and also helps keep crop infestations at bay.

Temperatures and Gases
MacroAir fans promote even distribution of temperature and gases within agricultural structures to ensure a consistent and ideal environment for plant growth and animal health.

CLEARANCE
What is the standard drop length requirement for MacroAir fans?
- Standard 3 ft drop requirement for most fans, requiring a ceiling height of at least 13 ft; Many models can be shortened to a 2 ft drop standard; AVD370 can be as short as 1 ft drop standard.
What is the minimum height requirement for a MacroAir fan?
- A fan must have a minimum height requirement of 10 ft above floor plus a drop length requirement of 3 feet, which means the total required height from top of ceiling to floor is 13 feet. Blade tips should be at least 3 ft away from any area where a person may be able to reach them.
What is the required distance from the wall to the fan?
- A MacroAir fan must be 1.5 times the diameter of the fan from the wall. So, for example, if the fan was 6 feet in diameter, take 6 x 1.5 = 9. That means the ceiling fan must be 9 feet from the wall.
What is the required distance between fans?
- Depending on the diameter of the MacroAir fan, take that diameter and multiply it by 3 to find the distance between fans. For example, if the diameter of the fan is 6 feet, take 6 x 3 = 18. That means there must be 18 feet in between fans.
Do I need to keep MacroAir fans close to the ground for better air movement?
- No, fans do not need to be close to the ground. In fact, keeping fans higher allows for more air circulation.
