Ceiling fans at auto service shops

[Cole D]

Typically I take my car to Quick Lube for oil changes, which have no fans.

But since I had a free change at the dealership's Kwik Lane, I used that. They built the garage about a year ago. Inside the lobby area, I saw a pedestal fan but I didn't get a good look at it. There are windows that overlook the garage part and there is a MacroAir AirVolution huge ceiling fan over that garage area that was running.

I remember as a kid, a tire shop we used to go to, had a Duracraft 12" white pedestal fan in the waiting area. It was never usually on, but one day I plugged it in and fired it up. Later on I saw it had been replaced with an HV floor fan of some kind.

Unfortunately none of the dealerships I work for have fans installed.

However, there's a competing dealership group that has nickel Modern Fan Co. Balls in each service garage.

Hunter Sea Airs in the service bays of the dealership I go to.

Those both sound like interesting sightings for a service garage. I would expect industrials or large shop fans.

Really, the "garages" at this dealership are just where you pull in and then they take your car and you pay when it's done... the actual service garages most likely have industrials...
