16 Foot HVLS Ceiling Fan | 8 Blades | 12,750 Square Foot Coverage | 92298 CFM
This 16 foot HVLS ceiling fan is a strong choice for large, open commercial and industrial spaces needing broad, consistent air movement, thanks to its eight aluminum blades, 0.5 HP gear drive motor, and maximum airflow of 92,298 CFM. Variable speed control via a wall-mounted VFD allows precise adjustment for occupant comfort, while quiet operation below 57 dBA minimizes disruption. Its compatibility with multiple voltages and mounting options – including I-beams, Z-purlins, and open joists – supports flexible installation. Ideal for warehouses, manufacturing facilities, distribution centers, gymnasiums, hangars, and workshops, it requires at least 10 foot ceilings and sufficient structural support.

The LLS-HVLS-FAN-16FT-8B is a 16 foot diameter 8 blade high volume low speed (HVLS) ceiling fan. It is ideal for industrial grade and commercial spaces with open floor plans. It includes a NEMA 1 wall mounted VFD for controlling your unit. The controller features a safety disconnect, on/off toggle and speed regulator. Safety features include, safety cable, hub clips, hub retainer, dual-method fastening of all joined components, and integrated sprinkler shut-off.
This 16 foot HVLS fan provides huge airflow and comfort. It is perfect for installations in gyms, warehouses, work shops, hangars, manufacturing facilities and factories.
Product Overview
This 16 foot HVLS ceiling fan is an 8-blade, gear-drive fan for moving large volumes of air across open commercial and industrial floor areas. It produces 92,298 CFM at 44 RPM through an aluminum blade assembly.
The fan uses a 0.5 HP motor and wall-mounted VFD controller for variable-speed operation. It supports I-beam, Z-purlin, and open-joist mounting.
Core Performance and Output
At full speed, the fan delivers 92,298 CFM and covers up to 12,750 square feet. The 16 foot diameter and low 44 RPM operating speed are intended for broad air movement rather than concentrated airflow.
Available input voltage includes 110-120V, 208-240V, and 460-480V configurations at 60 Hz. Three-phase current draw is 1.90 A at 208-240V and 0.95 A at 460-480V.
The fan requires a minimum mounting height of 10 feet. Lower ceiling conditions can limit safe clearance and airflow distribution.
Adjustability and Control Options
The wall-mounted VFD controller provides variable-speed control. The controller includes a safety disconnect, on/off toggle, and speed regulator.
Speed adjustment allows airflow to be matched to changing occupancy and operating conditions. The controller is NEMA 1 rated.
Longevity and Reliability
The gear-drive motor is rated at 0.5 HP. The fan includes dual-method fastening for joined components, hub clips, and a hub retainer.
A safety cable is included as part of the installation system. The fan carries a 5-year warranty.
Build Quality and Physical Characteristics
The fan has an aluminum 8-blade assembly with a 16 foot diameter. Available finishes are brushed aluminum, black, blue, and white.
Fan weight is 140 pounds. The supplied downrod is 1 inch.
Minimum ceiling clearance is 3 to 4 feet, with a minimum horizontal clearance of 2 feet. These clearances need to be maintained around the blade sweep and mounting location.
Where This Product Fits Best
This HVLS fan fits large open indoor areas that need broad air circulation from an overhead mounting position. Its 16 foot diameter, 92,298 CFM output, and 12,750 square foot coverage support larger ventilation zones.
- warehouse ventilation
- manufacturing facility ventilation
- gymnasium ventilation
- agricultural building ventilation
- aircraft hangar ventilation
- distribution center ventilation
I-beam, Z-purlin, and open-joist mounting support common structural conditions in these applications. The installation location must provide the stated vertical and horizontal clearances.
Installation and Long-Term Use
The fan mounts to I-beams, Z-purlins, or open joists. Confirm that the selected structure supports the 140 pound fan and associated installation hardware before installation.
Install the safety cable, hub clips, hub retainer, and dual-method fastening components as part of the fan assembly. The integrated sprinkler shut-off is included with the safety features.
Voltage and phase must match the available electrical service and controller configuration. The wall-mounted VFD should remain accessible for normal speed adjustment and shutdown.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
In warehouse ventilation, manufacturing facility ventilation, and distribution center ventilation layouts, the fan is positioned above open floor areas where its airflow can spread across a broad zone. The minimum mounting height is 10 feet, with 3 to 4 feet of ceiling clearance and 2 feet of horizontal clearance.
For gymnasium ventilation, aircraft hangar ventilation, and agricultural building ventilation, placement is typically coordinated around the available structural members and required clearances. Fan placement should account for the full 16 foot blade diameter.
Coverage and fixture layout vary with the required ventilation pattern and physical layout. A larger airflow zone can reduce the number of fans needed, but spacing must preserve clearance around each fan.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
The wall-mounted VFD controller is NEMA 1 rated. The fan includes a safety cable, hub clips, hub retainer, dual-method fastening, and integrated sprinkler shut-off.
The fan has a sound level below 57 dB. Warranty coverage is 5 years.
