New Powr-Flite F5 Axial Fan Air Mover
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“On a water damage or carpet cleaning job, the number of fans you can run is often limited by the outlets, not by how many fans are on the truck. The F5 axial fan helps with that. Each one moves 3,000 CFM but draws only 2.2 amps, and built-in GFCI outlets let you daisy chain up to five F5 fans into one standard 15 amp wall outlet. That means fewer blown circuits and fewer extension cords running across the floor. It works in four positions, so you can aim it across carpet and padding, up at a ceiling, or into a closet, cabinet or attic, and the 2-speed, 1/4 hp motor lets you match the airflow to the job. The roto-molded polyethylene housing is built for daily restoration work, and up to five F5 fans stack for transport and storage, which saves real space in a van or warehouse. Powr-Flite pitches it for carpets, rugs, subfloors, drywall, furniture and draperies. If your techs move a lot of fans by hand, the PDF5DX adds a handle and wheels.”
