Impulse Direct Drive Fan (launching July 2025): The flagship PFX Industrial HVLS fan continues to be a top-selling industrial fan worldwide. The Impulse Direct Drive Fan, a six-blade alternative to the iconic eight-blade PFD, delivers powerful airflow at a lower cost. It’s set to redefine cooling and comfort solutions at its price point, delivering unparalleled performance for industrial and commercial spaces.
Torrent Misting Fan (launching April 2025): There’s a high cost to extreme heat – it is dangerous to humans and bad for business. The Torrent Misting Fan was designed to combat heat stress for people working in unconditioned environments, including those loading and unloading trailers, often in scorching heat. Torrent delivers industry-leading cooling with 24 hours of continuous misting in a compact, portable design. Its durable build makes it ideal for outdoor spaces, sporting events, trailers, warehouses, production areas and more.
“At Big Ass Fans, we don’t believe in innovation for innovation’s sake – we listen to our customers and develop products that solve their most urgent challenges, with the added benefits of beautiful design, top-notch engineering and superior performance,” said Leah Larson, president. “We are committed to continuing to push the boundaries of air movement technology, delivering comfort where it seems impossible, and improving safety for workers in tough environments.”
