FAQ: BEST SELLER

Which VENTRY Fan model is your best seller?

Historically, model 20GX120, with a twenty-inch propeller and Honda GX120 motor, has been our best seller because it is a great value, an ideal combination of size and power. This could change in the near future, with the recent introduction of a 20GX160 and two 1.5 hp 20-inch Electric models. However, initially the 20GX120 remains extremely popular with our customers.

The 20GX120 has a robust, commercial-duty engine with the low-oil shut-off. It offers air volumes similar to much larger fans (16,500 CFM with legs extended) yet is similar in storage size and weight to much smaller fans (click here for specs). This model is often used in lieu of electric fans due to low CO levels of only 17 PPM at equilibrium.

Departments often balk at the small 20-inch propeller only to find it pushes more than other brands’ much larger models because of the Safety Propeller.

THE TESTS TO BACK IT UP: Independent testing on PPV showed that our small 20GX120 VENTRY (3.8 hp) pushed 2.8 times the airflow of a larger box fan--a leading manufacturer’s 24 inch GX200 (5.5 hp) model--when both were placed at 12 feet from the door. At only 6 feet back, they were essentially equal. Click here for further discussion.
