The newly introduced Element by Big Ass Fans has received not one, but two Readers’ Choice Awards from the readers of Environmental Design and Construction (ED+C) and Sustainable Facility magazines. Element received top honors in the Interior Products/Design category and the Energy Conservation product category.
The 12-ft. diameter Element by Big Ass Fans is the first industrial-grade air movement solution that is engineered specifically for the unique needs of large, air conditioned commercial spaces such as shopping malls, office buildings, churches and recreational facilities.
Due to its large volume of air movement, Element can be integrated with HVAC systems to provide more efficient heating and cooling in large spaces. In existing buildings, Element can deliver a 10 to 15 percent reduction in energy costs! Element can also be used to distribute the air from the HVAC system year round. This significantly reduces the amount of ductwork required in buildings and lowers the overall energy consumption of HVAC systems.
Operating on just one-half horsepower at maximum speed, the energy-efficient Element delivers massive, silent air circulation that is ideal for public spaces. And with a wide range of colors and finishes, Element can blend in or become a true design feature in any space. Element is the perfect marriage of form and function!

The online Readers’ Choice Awards contest gives both manufacturers and readers the opportunity to showcase and vote for, respectively, the crème de la crème of green building products that best combine sustainable attributes with ease of use and installation. Products that earned the most votes were awarded this distinct honor at 2008 Greenbuild Conference and Expo.
Photos and descriptions of Element by Big Ass Fans and all other Readers’ Choice Award winners in each of the 10 categories will appear in the January issue of ED+C and in the February issue of Sustainable Facility.
