March 29, 2021

Big Ass Fans (BAF) welcomed Blue Grass Airport (LEX) to the Clean Air System (CAS) family. LEX joins fellow CAS customers (eg: Toyota, Tiffany & Co., Orangetheory Fitness, lululemon, Carnegie Mellon University) to install BAF’s air disinfection technology to ensure a safer, healthier space for staff and patrons alike.

Proven to significantly and safely reduce aerosolized SARS-CoV-2 from the air and mitigate infection risk, BAF’s independently tested system delivers better air quality to occupied spaces with a focus on air disinfection and deactivation of pathogens, viruses, bacteria, and other harmful particulates.

“This latest Big Ass Fans product is a welcome addition to our terminal facility," said Eric Frankl, executive director at Blue Grass Airport. "Given the continuing global pandemic, we want to assure our passengers that we are doing what we can to provide a safe and clean environment. This fan, with its latest disinfecting technology, makes that possible. We are so fortunate and proud to have a company as innovative as Big Ass Fans in our own backyard."

"[Clean Air System] can effectively deactivate SARS-CoV-2 at a rate significant enough to implement in any facility and provide a valuable level of sterilization and decontamination to the environment in which it is implemented," according to the Innovative BioAnalysis report (Biological Safety Level 3 laboratory)

“Alongside Big Ass Fans' extensive internal research and development of Clean Air System, our work with independent labs allows us to quantify and verify the reduction of harmful viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, and other pathogens,” said Lennie Rhoades, CEO Big Ass Fans. “These third-party results give our customers confidence Clean Air System will keep their people and businesses safer, and seeing it serve our immediate community and those who visit Lexington is extra special."
