Are the really worth that much money? I find it hard to pay 3k for a 84" fan. Hopefully someone can educate me.

Big *** fans, anyone have one?

In my opinion no. We have several at work and they do not put off very much airflow. I can stand 10 ft in front of it and feel a tiny breeze, but it’s not concentrated. Maybe it’s because they are in very large areas but I would rather work in front of a port a cool, or a barrel fan. I work in a paper mill maybe that’s why, but maybe someone else can answer for in a shop or something similar.

BA Fans are not the only manufacturer. Search for HVLS fans. That is the industry term.
I have been considering this for my patio:

Edit:
At work, the shop has some of the big floor fans that BA makes, and they are LEGIT! They move some serious air for a roll around fan.

I'm not sure how much air movement a 96' one would create. But at work some of our customers have probably 20ft fans and they do turn fairly slow but they move a volume of air because of their size. They create air circulation and a slight breeze. but are they worth the cost I'm not so convinced. im sure you can find reviews on Youtube.

Don’t forget that the headspace above the fan has a lot to do with how much air it can move. If it is too tight against the ceiling, it doesn’t matter how big the fan is, it won’t move much. It’s like setting a box fan a couple inches from a wall, it creates a low pressure zone on the intake side. With the proper drop from the ceiling, any properly sized HVLS will move plenty of air.

I bought one and had it installed about a year ago. They are crazy expensive and it runs off of a Wi-Fi connection. I had a problem with it constantly disconnecting from the Wi-Fi connection. The company was great and trying to help diagnose what was wrong with it but could never figure out why the connection kept disconnecting. The company gave me my money back along with the money that it cost to have it installed.
