Need to find some powerful ceiling fans or an alternative solution on this situation.
The building's walls (showroom) are surrounded by glass and the temperatures inside the building are getting unbearable.The shop owner already have 4 air conditions but are not sufficient to cool the place.Also electric consumption of a/c is not viable and is not reasonable to use them.
The temp in summer is between 34c-40c .Is like a greenhouse.
The owner called me to see if i can find a solution.I said to answer him in a few days.
So i was thinking
1. to use bigger A/Cs (he mention that he dont wont cause of the unsustainable el.bill)
2.Use a special tape/membrane on glass to block some of the heat
3.Use fans
for 1 and 2 is not my job but for the fans i will need to find 2 very strong ceiling fans.On the top of the shop there is a big window 3mx3m (see pic) so when we use the fans it will greate an air flow from there to the door.
My only problem is that iam not confident that the normal ceiling fans are able to create the flow i need.The usual fans are around 70-120wat.
I believe maybe i will need stronger fans,like 300watt or more.
Maybe you can have better solutions or have informations for stronger ceiling fans?
