“After installing the fans, we noticed staff turnover was less. So obviously the working conditions had improved, and it was a more comfortable place to work.”

“We’ve had a long history using Big Ass Fans at Bridge Climb. For us they’re industrial in nature. They look great and they provide what we need which is good air movement through the base. “
– Simon Pitkethley, Bridge Climb Sydney
“With Big Ass Fans in the foyer, there’s ten of them [Essence fans]. They move huge amount of air and if you don’t look up, the only thing you think is that there’s a breeze in the terminal. Quite fascinating there’s so much air moving and there’s no noise.”
– Glen Newport, Darwin International Airport
