What is a roof fan?

A roof fan is a fan designed for mounting on a roof, used to extract air from buildings. In industrial settings, this often involves removing warm air, fumes, dust or contaminated air from production areas, storage facilities or workshops.

Thanks to their high capacity and robust construction, industrial roof fans offer a dependable solution for large-scale ventilation.

Our roof fans are suitable for use in industrial and production environments, utility buildings and large commercial facilities.

Applications of industrial roof fans

Our roof fans are used in:

Production halls
Warehouses and logistics centers
Technical rooms
Commercial kitchens
Machinery rooms
Data centers

They are ideal for continuous or periodic extraction of warm or polluted air. By mounting the fan on the roof, you keep valuable indoor space free and prevent unwanted pressure build-up inside the building.

What types of roof fans do we offer?

We offer a wide range of industrial roof fans, including:

Axial roof fans – High airflow at low pressure, ideal for general air movement
Centrifugal roof fans – Suitable for higher resistance systems such as ductwork or filters
Vertical or horizontal discharge – We advise on the best option for your situation

Our roof fans are available with AC or EC motors, in various diameters and capacities. You can rely on energy-efficient solutions with a long service life.

Frequently asked questions about roof fans

What’s the difference between an axial and a centrifugal roof fan?

Axial fans move air in a straight line and are suitable for applications with low resistance. Centrifugal fans build up more pressure and are better for systems with ductwork or filters.

Can you help with on-site advice?

Yes. Depending on your needs, we can call or visit to go over technical details. We’re happy to advise based on your drawings, requirements or ventilation challenges.

What is the delivery time for an industrial roof fan?

That depends on the type and configuration. Many models are available on short notice. Contact us for up-to-date lead times.

Do you also supply accessories such as roof penetrations or rain caps?

Yes, we provide matching accessories such as roof supports, rain caps, silencers, and mounting rings. We also offer self-closing dampers, which prevent cold drafts during winter when the fan is switched off.

Is a work switch required to be installed on a roof fan?

Yes, under Dutch occupational health and safety regulations (Arbowet), it is mandatory to install a work switch on roof fans. This ensures that technicians can safely isolate the fan during maintenance, preventing accidental activation. The work switch should be clearly visible and lockable to prevent unauthorized operation.
