OVERVIEW

Overheating Work Areas and Stagnant Air? This 36" Belt-Drive Drum Fan Delivers Powerful Spot Cooling That Makes Large Spaces Workable Again

Heat buildup is part of life in warehouses, factories, and shops—but that doesn’t mean your team has to work in stagnant air. The Heatbuster drum fan by Triangle Engineering is designed for one clear job: moving a large volume of air exactly where people and processes need it most.

This 36-inch drum fan delivers roughly 12,100 CFM, making it a practical solution for large, open spaces where full building air conditioning isn’t realistic. Instead of trying to cool everything, it focuses airflow on work areas—aisles, loading docks, staging zones, and production lines—where better air movement immediately improves comfort and productivity.

The fan creates a strong, directional airstream that helps break up hot spots and reduce air stratification. That steady airflow makes a noticeable difference, especially in non-conditioned buildings, by increasing air speed across workers. Even when temperatures stay the same, the space simply feels more tolerable. That matters during long shifts and peak summer months.

A key advantage of this drum fan is its belt-drive design operating at approximately 500 RPM. Running the fan wheel at a lower speed allows it to move a lot of air without the harsh noise and vibration common with smaller, high-RPM units. The result is smoother airflow, quieter operation, and equipment that holds up better over time. Keeping the motor out of the direct airstream also helps protect it from dust, fumes, and heat—an important detail in industrial environments.

Mobility is another reason this fan works so well. Built with rubber wheels it can be rolled to where airflow is needed most. Whether it’s temporary spot cooling, seasonal heat control, or supporting specific processes like drying floors or parts, the fan adapts as the workspace changes.

If you’ve considered a barrel fan for a warehouse or shop, this size and airflow range hits a reliable middle ground. It’s large enough to affect a meaningful area, yet still easy to reposition as work shifts throughout the day.

The Heatbuster isn’t about overcomplicating ventilation. It’s about dependable, high-volume air movement that improves comfort, supports operations, and fits the realities of industrial spaces. Simple, effective, and built to work where HVAC coverage falls short.
