Our 18" basket fan is designed especially for agricultural use. Unlike most fans which are NOT meant for use in barns, this fan has a totally enclosed motor with sealed ball bearings meaning it can be used in wet locations! These fans can even be sprayed down to remove dust and dirt, making them an excellent choice for wash bays and stables.

It is important to note that many fans sold in farm and home improvement stores are dangerous to use in barns. These include all box fans and most floor type basket fans.  Unless the fans have completely sealed motors, they will NOT be rated for agricultural use.  Be sure to check the instruction manual before purchasing - as many will state on the front page "for residential use only".  This is true for ceiling fans as well (ours are also agriculturally rated).
 
Electrical fires are a leading cause of preventable horse deaths. In 2007, 44 horses were killed in a barn fire caused by a fairly new box fan. There is a website dedicated to fire safety in barns - check out their stories on how the wrong fans can be a deadly cost-cutting measure! Don't become a statistic...

- "A huge shoutout to RAMM Horse Fencing & Stalls; we received our agricultural farm-safe stall fans in a matter of days and the best price available! Thank you for giving us the peace of mind knowing our horses can enjoy a blast of cool, refreshing air with your stall fans that are completely sealed and safe :)" - Total Equine Services

- "I received and installed my fans yesterday; it was a piece of cake. Both installed without any problems and both fans operate in outstanding fashion. The packing was outstanding as well. The amount of air these fans move is quite amazing for the size. I think I can see a bit of gratitude from the horses when they are on. They not only help with cooling and providing a lot of air movement, but they seem to help keep the flies and other bugs at bay. These fans are awesome! Well made and they do their jobs. I am grateful for that! They run kind of quiet too, considering the amount of air they are moving. Thank you for all your help and for providing an outstanding product. All i have to do now is get the wife involved to see if she wants to order any additional fans." - Tom

- "I just bought and installed four of theses fans from Ramm in my barn. I had to replace four I bought from TSC because I power washed them to get off the dust. Ruined every one. These new fans are worth every penny! Quiet, powerful, enclosed motor and SAFE. Comparable fans through other outlets were much more... even with the included price of shipping. Do your research and you will not find a better fan for a better price." - Ivan

- "We received our fans within days of our order! Can't say enough great things about RAMM Fence and their products. Not to mention phenomenal customer service and you won't find better prices. Thank you for giving us peace of mind knowing our barn babies can stay cool and safe ♡"

- "I am following up to let you know how very happy we have been with our fan purchase! These fans were worth every penny spent. They actually move more air than I had expected, and they look great in our new barn. This is our first purchase from your company, but I am certain that it will not be our last. We will spread the word about your outstanding company to our fellow horse owners here in Illinois!" - Marilyn
