BRISBANE BAYSIDE STATE COLLEGE / Brisbane, Queensland CASE STUDY:

OBJECTIVES Most of the funds behind these initiaives for Brisbane Bayside State College (BBSC) were reliant on the fundraising efforts from the P&F. Therefore, it was vital that the BBSC P&F comittee found a cooling solution that they could vertified worked. President of the P&F BBSC, Gretchen Mander Jones reached out to a number of other schools in the area and discovered that Big Ass Fans are installed in over 1,200 schools across Australia. With confirmation of Big Ass Fans sucessful in a number of other schools, she reached out to us.

CHALLENGE BBSC resides in the bayside area, which can often be incredibly hot and humid during the summer months. BBSC have historically struggled with keeping their Multi-Purpose Hall cool and comfortable for students and staff, particularly during exams, sporting events and assemblies. With school numbers sitting at over 1,000 children, BBSC needed a solution that was quiet enough to not disturb the activities below, but effective in moving large amounts of air in the space.

SOLUTION Due to the large nature of the Multi-Purpose Hall and to ensure even distribution of wall-to-wall airflow, Big Ass Fans used our certified Perlin Brackets to symmetrically position two Powerfoil x3.0 fans across the space. As the fans are high volume, low speed, BBSC are able to use the fans at 60% capacity and still feel a cooling breeze below. This means when they are conducting exams or assemblies the gentle breezes don’t move papers or distribute the activities below with noise.
