 I went to the Mall and saw this Dayton Industrial Ceiling Fan in a cage at a store called The Woodsman Company. So I decided to shoot a picture and a video of it. Enjoy! |

Looks like a Dayton, I think they still make that model today as well.

Cool! I think I've seen those Dayton caged industrials in person before, at a gym somewhere. ;D

The store had 3 of these, but only one of them was on. They're the 3 speed pullchain kind with a switch housing on the bottom.

My Home Depot also has Dayton Industrials without cages and switch housings and the blades are very dirty.

My Home Depot has some type of evaporative coolers on the roof. When you look up at the units, you see a two bladed fan and beyond that, pads for which water collects around the edge of the fan (it's surrounded by a shallow wall). It's interesting, but they suck when the temperature reaches 90 or above with little or no humidity- probably due to lack of maintenance.
When you look up at the ceiling, there's ventilation boxes with flaps pointing in 4 clockwise directions. They're almost like attic fans, but in reverse.

It's related to adiabatic cooling. However, if it is too hot, the human skin cannot detect the difference, and is in essence felt as stagnant muggy air, not cool air. |

I think the cages are intended to keep balls from hitting them, the way most gyms put cages over the clock, scoreboard, any other equipment. Yet I've never actually seen these fans with cages in a gym, just in retail stores.
