BAR CEILING FANS

Large oversized ceiling fans are perfect for very large rooms or rooms with high ceilings where you want a single ceiling fan that proportionally makes a statement in the room. Keep in mind that the larger the blade span, the slower the blades will spin just do to the size and weight of the blades. So a 72 inch or 80 inch diameter fan may not move as much air as a 60 inch or smaller ceiling fan. Normally, we would recommend using two 52 inch ceiling fans in a larger room, but some rooms just cry out for something on a grand scale, so the amount of air movement may be compromised to achieved more decorative impact. Large ceiling fans are perfect for large rooms with minimal ventilation such as clubs or bars with high wide ceilings.

KEGERATORS

A beer dispensing device and individualized refrigerator for the beer keg, the classic beer dispenser set-up is to either house the kegs in a cellar or in a walk-in cooler. These set-ups have the advantage of keeping the kegs both out of sight and out of bartenders’ ways. Often the cooler in a pub set-up will be located right behind the back wall opposite the bar counter so that the kegs are literally only inches away from their taps–though they need not be. You could just as easily have the tapped kegs in the cellar beneath the bar with the tap line running all the way up to the bar (or bars). The only limitation is due to pressure. The pressure must be enough to reach the tap.
