Tornado 24 Inch Pro Series High Velocity Oscillating Wall Mount Fan For Commercial, Industrial Use 3 Speed 7200 CFM 6.6 FT Cord UL Safety Listed

I use these in my greenhouse, and boy do they move money. We needed a 120V solution for air circulation, and thus couldn't go with HAF fans like Schaefer fans. These fit the bill, having such a crazy high CFM rating at 1.5 amps. At full speed, holy moly do they get the air moving. We replaced a bunch of cheap Hurricane classic fans that run 0.5 amps. At 3x the power consumption, these are moving 11x as much air. And you can really feel it. Installation is extremely easy, though the instructions aren't super clear about every little detail. Screw the back plate to the motor, screw the blade to the motor hub, then snap the front housing onto the back housing. Don't forget that little screw at the bottom. Line up the "prong" of the front housing up at the top, with the logo of the fan centered, and then screw the tiny screw that's already installed into the back housing from the factory into the front, screwing the two housings together. Then snap the clips along the sides together. The mounting arm is easy enough to install as well, and very self explanatory. Two bolts, one big, another small, and threaded. Install them, but keep the smaller bolt un-torqued until you have the fan mounted on your wall so you can set the angle of the fan. I run them straight with no down tilt. The reviews mentioning about concrete walls are false. The instructions do mention it, but that's just silly. These fans have 3 big holes on the mounting pole. 3 long screws with washers on them, bolted into a stud, is more than adequate. I wouldn't trust shooting them into drywall anchors, but even plywood walls would be fine. Very happy. Of course they are loud. They are giant, move a stupid amount of air. They are going to make a lot of noise. That being said, keep in mind that a fan at this size making this much CFM will produce a lot less noise than a smaller fan producing the same amount of CFM. I can't really comment on noise as I run them at full blast in an environment where noise doesn't matter whatsoever. I can say however that yes, these are 100% for commercial use. They are big, loud, move insane amounts of air, and are definitely not meant for any sort of residential use. If you're concerned about noise, this probably isn't the correct fan for your application anyways.

I installed this up high in my garage with a 30 minute timer. The garage is often too hot for me to work in, and I thought I'd have to get it air conditioned. But this fan blows all the hear out in about 10 minutes. Of coarse it's not going to make it cold or anything. But it makes a huge difference. Yes, it's a little noisy, but not to the extent that you have to raise your voice when speaking or anything. I like the extra long pull chain. That's a good touch, even though I don't actually use it. It was a little clumsy to install, I would suggest having a second person on a second ladder, but I was able to do it myself in about 30 minutes total, from opening the box, to enjoying the breeze. Thanks for a great product.

Overall, I like this fan. You have to put it together which takes a bit of time and then install. I am using this in my garage. If you put the blade on backwards, it will not push any air properly. I initially put in on backwards, there is not really a good way to tell which way it goes, so try to follow directions. The fan seems sturdy, has some plastic parts, but once installed all is good. Since this is a chain pull, I leave it on medium and use a smart plug to allow Alexa to turn it on and off - very convenient. The fan is noisy for sure, but in the garage with how much air it circulates, it is worth it. The three speeds are close in air flow. If I would change something on the operation, I would make low slower so you could have a quieter, lower flow option when needed. After a couple of months of use, I am happy with my set up and the entire garage gets air flow.

Love it, great fan. The kiddo insists on sleeping with a massive fan blowing in her, and I was tired of how much precious-little floor space her previous fan hogged up. So, I wanted a nice wall-mounted fan to get the job done, look nice, and be out of the way. Wow, this thing really blows (not in the insulting way LOL) even on the lowest setting. Frankly, is too much for this little bedroom. It's really ideal for larger garage-sized spaces, but hey, she loves it, so we're happy. Good quality materials, assembled and hung very well, and hey, no missing parts, so gotta love that. Anyway, highly recommended.

I specifically selected the “Indoor” version of this fan because the listing describes it for rooms including garages, workshops, warehouses, and even nurseries, and because there is a completely separate “Industrial” option on the same product page. Then the fan arrived and the included manual states that the product is intended for industrial or commercial use only. The mounting instructions were another surprise. The supplied hardware is for masonry, and the manual calls for either a substantial masonry wall or unusually large wood framing rather than a normal residential wall installation. None of this was apparent from the Amazon listing when I ordered it for my home garage. The fan itself may be perfectly suitable for a warehouse or commercial shop, but the Amazon listing does a terrible job of communicating what you're actually buying. Calling one variant “Indoor” while offering another variant called “Industrial,” then shipping an “Indoor” product whose manual says “industrial or commercial use only,” is incredibly confusing. I didn't even install it. After unpacking this huge, heavy fan and discovering all of this in the manual, I packed it back up and returned it. Amazon/Tornado need to make the intended application and mounting requirements much clearer on the product page.

We are having a super hot summer in Missouri and little rain. I like to work in my shop but is very uncomfortable in the heat. I have a floor fan but decided to get a quality oscillating fan and purchased the 30" Tornado. It has three speeds and and can tilt downward which is great. I mounted it up high on my wall near the gable end and put the speed on 2 and it does a great job. The heat that rises is blown out the the front through the overhead door. It is also great in keeping insects out, guess they don't like the strong air movement. I looked online and locally at many fans and felt this was the best choice and I am not disappointed. It also comes with a good warranty on the motor.

I put this in my garage gym for the hot summers and love it! It moves some serious air! Sturdy. Well-built. I’m and avid weight lifter and needed moving air in the hot temperatures. Only two drawbacks. (1) This fan is LOUD. I didn’t mind this in my garage, and this is common for industrial fans. Just FYI. (2) This fan is EITHER oscillating OR fixed. Changing between the two requires reseating a screw. Not hard, but not the simple push of a button either. Highly recommend this fan to anyone needing to love air in a gym or industrial space.

Very powerful fan, very happy with this purchase
