So I’ve been looking around and talking to people about how to get a nice horizontal line of air movement above and under my canopy, or over my hotter lights and for air mix up top where the intake is. A lot of people have said many tower fans don’t like running long-term on their sides, as easy as that would be to do. Most of what I’ve found so far for wet environment-rated horizontal fans have been quite industrial and expensive, with the cheapest greenhouse models around $250-300 if I’m remembering correctly.
Vornado just released a new model in their growing HD Commercial line which are all IP54 or better and built rugged and easily disassembled for regular cleaning. I used the small and large circulators at my last cafe job to refresh (literally) the dying fan array throughout the two floors of kitchens, they were great. This one is marketed as a workbench fan but looks ideal for use in a grow tent in many different ways, from on the floor, up poles, horizontal zip tied to a negative pressure bar, the list of ideas goes on. Check it out, hope this solves a problem or itch for someone out there!
