Fan Noise Calculator
LED Lighting Supply’s fan noise calculator helps estimate the noise level generated by a commercial or industrial ceiling fan to influence fan placement and fan count to align with space requirements. This fan sound power level calculation uses the ceiling fan’s power in Watts (W) and pressure (Pa) to identify the fan noise power level in Deciblels (dB).

How to use LED Lighting Supply's Free Fan Noise Decibel Calculator:
Determine the ceiling fan’s power. A ceiling fan’s power refers to the amount of energy used by the fixture at its highest speed to improve air quality. A fan’s power is measured in Watts (W) and will depend on the size and speed at which the fan operates. Ensuring the ceiling fan’s same point is adjusted properly based on the season optimizes air circulation regardless of the fan speed or power.
Ceiling Fan Power Consumption (Wattage) Calculation:
To calculate the ceiling fan’s Wattage (W), multiply the Amps (A) by the Volts (V). Amps can be found on the ceiling fan’s label. On average, most ceiling fans operate on a standard voltage of 120V.
Ceiling Fan Wattage Formula:
Use the formula below to calculate the ceiling fan’s wattage:
- Power Wattage (W) = Amps (A) X Volts (V)
Determine the fan’s sound pressure level (Pa). Ceiling fan sound pressure level refers to the amount of force the fan blades push against during operation to circulate air and is typically measured in Pascals (Pa). As the ceiling fan distributes airflow from the ceiling to the floor, the ceiling fan’s pressure increases. Noise rating levels vary and are dependent on the ceiling fan’s model and speed settings.
Click Calculate to measure your fan’s estimated noise power level (dB). Decibels (dB) is a way to calculate fan noise and is identified as a sound intensity measurement of an electric signal.
What are the Benefits of Installing an LED Lighting Supply Ceiling Fan?
Purchasing a commercial or industrial ceiling fan sized correctly for your warehouse, factory, or other facility will ensure proper total noise output, improve worker comfort, and boost worker productivity. By creating a consistent airflow, multiple fans regulate temperatures, limit excess usage of HVAC systems, and improve energy efficiency by up to 15%.
