Fans, blowers, and ventilation systems engineered for the job they actually have to do
A dust collector, a mist collector, or a fume extraction system is only as good as the air moving through it. If the fan cannot overcome the static pressure of the ductwork, hoods, and filter media, capture velocity drops at the source and the system stops doing its job, no matter how good the filtration is.
Air movement is where a lot of systems go wrong, and it is where we started. Watson Power Equipment has focused on industrial air handling since 1956, and the group has been selecting, installing, and servicing fans in industrial plants ever since.
We supply standard and custom engineered equipment across the full range of applications: general ventilation, material handling, high temperature process air, combustion draft, water and wastewater aeration, and building ventilation. When a fan is obsolete or the original manufacturer no longer supports it, we match it.
Equipment we supply
Centrifugal Fans
Airfoil, backward curved, backward inclined, forward curved, radial blade, and radial tip. Standard and custom engineered for the static pressure and particulate load of your system.
Axial Fans
Vaneaxial, tubeaxial, and propeller fans for high volume, low pressure applications, including general plant ventilation and exhaust.
Pressure Blowers
High pressure, low volume air for material conveying, combustion air, cooling, drying, and blow-off applications.
High Temperature Fans
Process fans built for elevated temperature service, including combustion draft, kiln, oven, and furnace exhaust.
Positive Displacement Blowers
Aeration and process blowers for water and wastewater treatment and industrial process air.
HVLS Fans
High volume, low speed ceiling fans for destratification, comfort, and air circulation across large open spaces.
Natural and Gravity Ventilation
Roof ventilators, ridge vents, and louvers that move heat and contaminated air out of a building without energy input.
Accessories
Silencers, acoustic louvers and enclosures, sound and safety jackets, dampers, expansion joints, flexible connectors, and vibration isolation.
Evaporative Cooling and Make-Up Air
Tempered replacement air for facilities exhausting large volumes, so your exhaust system is not fighting negative pressure.
