Inline Fans
Inline fans are specialized centrifugal or axial fans designed to be installed within a ducted ventilation run, rather than at the air terminal or equipment housing. Their compact design and placement within the ductwork make them ideal for boosting airflow over long distances, exhausting contaminated air, or supporting ducted residential and commercial ventilation systems. These fans operate by drawing air from one end of the duct and forcefully pushing it to the other. Because they are integrated directly into the air path, they must be engineered to overcome the static pressure losses inherent in duct runs, bends, and components like filters. Inline fans are highly valued for their ability to maintain optimal air velocities and pressure consistency, ensuring air reaches the intended terminal device or exterior outlet. The primary benefit of using inline fans is their versatility and superior noise management. Since they can be installed remotely—often in attics, ceilings, or utility closets—noise and vibration are isolated from occupied spaces, leading to quieter operation compared to wall-mounted fans.
