Welcome to this virtual tour of AirPro Fan and Blower Company, where we manufacture reliable fans and blowers for our extensive customer base around the world. In this video we provide a bird’s eye view of our three manufacturing locations in Rhinelander, WI and learn about our processes: from design to shipping.
Most people have experienced the keen frustration of slow response times from a business or vendor. Send an inquiry and wait two weeks just for an automated response. It’s particularly frustrating when the customer wants to place an order. The order cycle seems universal to most industries and businesses, but moving through it efficiently does not always happen.
Effective July 1, 2024, AirPro has discontinued its HP(RL/RM/SL/SM) fan sizes less than 30” in diameter. AirPro’s recently designed P## fans in the same size period are better technology— and better for AirPro to build — while also meeting the performance requirements that the HP fans meet.
Introducing AirPro’s new Forever Fan System—a standalone pedestal mounted vibration and temperature monitoring system our engineers developed to help end-users avoid downtime, extend the operational life of their fans, and reduce operating costs.
Successful businesses are often born out of trials. AirPro Fan & Blower manufactures some of the finest industrial fans on the market today. Our 21-year history includes trial and error, setbacks, and unintended failures to bring us this far as a company. As C.S. Lewis once quipped, “Failures are fingerposts on the road to achievement.” Our failures have helped us grow as a company and have enriched our company culture. And now, as a 100% ESOP—a company with an Employee Stock Ownership Plan—failure plays a key role in our success because we do not like to fail.
“Do it once and do it right.” That’s the business philosophy behind SysTech Design, a second-generation family-owned industrial sales company in suburban Philadelphia. Recently, AirPro had the privilege to interview SysTech’s principal, Mr. Adam Conley, who talked to us about partnering with AirPro, and also about some of the challenges of industrial fan sales.
One of the coolest things about building fans is understanding industrial fan applications. At AirPro, we build all types of fan wheels depending on customer needs. So why one fan type over another? It all has to do with application.
Generally, there are two reasons to measure a centrifugal fan – the user wants to retrofit the fan (or parts) or replace it with a new fan. In either case, accurate measurements are critical to replicating the system currently in place, especially if no drawing is available. If possible, separate or isolate the fan from the system to access key measurement points. If duct work on the inlet or outlet is in the way, this could impact measurement accuracy.
One of the most interesting sales reps in the industrial fan industry hails from Shelby County, Tennessee and if asked in the 1980s if he would be a Division Sales Manager for a supplier of automation and product solutions, he probably would have given the side-eye and kept walking. In this month’s Rep Highlight we introduce you to Mr. Lee Free of Centro, Inc.
We here at AirPro love candy, so it was with great enthusiasm that our engineers designed this size 200 BCMS fan for an international confectionary outfit that makes popular candies. A BCMS fan was selected to meet the medium volume clean air requirement at moderate static pressure.
AirPro built this hefty backward inclined, high volume, single width fan for a track kiln that dries pressure treated poles by delivering heated air from a burner to the kiln. It then recirculates a portion of hot air in the kiln to maintain a set temperature.
