Now that’s a Big Ass Fan!
We’re happy to announce the installation of our new fans ahead of the summer months. If you have ever been to Southern California in the summer then you’ll understand why we’re so excited.
We started this project in the winter knowing we should get a head start on the hot days ahead. Even with temperatures in the mid-80’s the warehouse is beginning to feel stuffy. Could you imagine what it would be like when it’s 110-120 degrees?! And the warehouse is even hotter.
There were tons of reasons why we wanted to install fans in our building. In previous years, it was a challenge to keep our staff cool and hydrated. While we did have smaller fans that helped, the environment was still uncomfortable. Not only that, but it is dangerous to work in those conditions- not by anyone’s fault. It was time to do something that would make a big difference.
But this year is a different situation altogether. Yes, we expect there to be heatwaves, high temperatures, A/C issues, and everything else you expect in a California summer. What we didn’t expect is the lasting impact that Covid-19 would have on operations. With all the safety measures in place to operate ‘normally’, there had to be more we can do to host a safe workplace.
The solution- Big Ass Fans! BAF combined some sort of ion technology, that kills bacteria and viruses, with their big fans. With these fans we could tackle two challenges: We can host a safer and cooler workspace.
As we turn these bad boys on and let them run, we’re excited to see the difference they make.
