Green-tek Fiberglass Exhaust Fan 36in - 1/2 hp - 11,000 CFM - 115/230V

Green-tek Fiberglass Exhaust Fan 36in - 1/2 hp - 11,000 CFM - 115/230V

The Green-tek Fiberglass Exhaust Fan delivers 11,000 CFM of high-volume exhaust ventilation in a 36-inch corrosion-resistant fiberglass housing built for the demanding conditions of greenhouse and agricultural environments. Designed for efficient temperature and humidity control across a wide range of growing and agricultural applications, the fiberglass construction withstands humid, chemical-laden air that rapidly degrades conventional steel or aluminum fans, ensuring long service life and consistent performance season after season.

Key Features & Benefits

• Corrosion-Resistant Fiberglass Housing: Fiberglass construction withstands humid, fertilizer-laden, and chemically aggressive greenhouse air that causes premature corrosion and failure in metal-housed fans.
• 11,000 CFM High-Volume Output: Handles the large air volumes needed for effective temperature and humidity control in commercial greenhouses and agricultural facilities.
• Dual Voltage 115/230V: Field-selectable voltage allows use with either 115V or 230V single-phase power supplies without requiring a different fan model for different facility electrical configurations.
• 1/2 hp Motor at 825 RPM: Low-speed, high-efficiency motor design moves large air volumes effectively while generating manageable operating noise levels.
• Single Phase Operation: Compatible with standard single-phase agricultural and commercial power without requiring three-phase infrastructure.
• Long Service Life Design: Engineered for dependable performance in demanding environments where frequent fan replacement would be costly and disruptive.

Who Should Use This

Designed for greenhouse operators, agricultural facility managers, and commercial growers who need high-volume exhaust ventilation in corrosive or humid environments where conventional metal fans fail prematurely. The 36-inch size is appropriate for large single-bay greenhouses and multi-section ventilation systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose fiberglass over metal for a greenhouse exhaust fan?

Greenhouse environments combine high humidity, condensation, fertilizer mist, and pest control chemicals that rapidly corrode steel and aluminum fan housings. Fiberglass is impervious to this corrosion, providing significantly longer service life in these conditions.

How do I wire this fan for 115V versus 230V operation?

Dual-voltage motors include wiring diagrams for both voltage configurations. Follow the manufacturer's wiring instructions carefully and ensure the installation is performed by a qualified electrician to comply with local electrical codes.

Does the fan require a thermostat or speed controller?

The fan can be switched on/off via a thermostat or operated continuously. A thermostat is recommended for temperature-controlled operation. Verify speed controller compatibility with the 1/2 hp motor specifications before use.

What shutter or louver type is recommended with this fan?

Corrosion-resistant polypropylene or fiberglass shutters and louvers are recommended for greenhouse exhaust fan installations to match the corrosion resistance of the fan housing. Metal shutters will corrode in the same aggressive environment.
