The specially developed GIFAS patented Turbulators enable, for the first time, precise redirection of heat back to the floor area. Without causing any draft effects, the warm air is purposefully returned and prevented from rising—regardless of the existing heating system. The result is a pleasant and homogeneous
indoor climate in the hall.
Thanks to GIFAS motor technology with high-efficiency EC motors, the units consume significantly less electricity compared to conventional ceiling fans. This comes with a much higher efficiency, superior air performance, lower noise emissions, and no draft effects whatsoever.
The GIFAS Turbulator® technology also allows for effective air circulation through complex high-rack storage systems, specifically targeting and eliminating cooler zones.
Benefits and Features:
- Targeted heat recirculation without drafts
- High energy savings through reduced operating times of heating systems and pump circuits
- High-efficiency EC motor with lower power consumption than conventional ceiling fans, while providing significantly higher efficiency, greater airflow performance, and lower noise emissions
- Fully galvanized housing with powder coating in RAL 9010 Pure White
- Infinitely variable and user-friendly control via the GIFAS energy-saving control system or integration into existing building management systems (BMS)
- No additional energy losses through control systems such as transformer-based controllers; instead, efficient 0-10 V control
- Unique radial and uniform heat recirculation in a helix pattern enabled by the patented Turbulator
- When roof ventilation is available, ensures comfortable mixing of indoor air with fresh outdoor air throughout the hall/building space

Model Calculation of Cost Savings
A conventional ceiling fan with an AC motor, for example, consumes 500W at partial load operation at 50% speed when using transformer control. In comparison, the GIFAS system consumes only 50W in the same scenario—about 450W less per operating hour. Assuming 4,000 operating hours per year, this results in a savings of 4,000 hours × 0.45kWh, which equals 1,480kWh. At an assumed electricity price of 0.20 EUR/kWh, this corresponds to an annual saving of 360 EUR.
