History
Aerovent, a company of quality, stature and endurance, began manufacturing electrical
motors in 1926, as Piqua Electric Manufacturing. In 1932, the motor business was
purchased by Niels A. Lundgard and Martin W. Bauer and this marked the beginning
of Aerovent Fan Company, Inc. This tiny Midwestern fabricator, who produced "aeroplane
propeller" industrial fans, fought to secure a foothold in the emerging air moving
and ventilation market through quality products with innovative features. Seven
decades have passed and the Aerovent line has become the symbol of quality air handling
equipment in every industry. Advanced engineering, accurate and dependable ratings,
and fully guaranteed performance have served as our guide in the development and
manufacture of excellence and serviceability.

Strengthened by our roots, deeply planted in knowledge and experience, Aerovent
is setting the industry standard, and the competition is following suit. A new manufacturing
facility and a dedicated work force of highly skilled and committed employees keep
Aerovent at the forefront in fan manufacturing. An AMCA registered test laboratory
assures that Aerovent remains the quality leader in the field of air moving and
ventilation equipment. A knowledgeable representative sales force insures that the
right product is matched to each application - every time.
