In 2022, the aquatic centre ‘Water House’ in Hjorring Municipality installed three large HVLS ceiling fans from Nordicco. The solution was implemented as a supplement to the existing ventilation system, with the clear objective of reducing the building’s total energy consumption. But without compromising indoor climate or user comfort.
Since the installation, the technical team has closely monitored the project. Through continuous adjustments and fine-tuning of the interaction between ventilation, heating and the HVLS fans, energy consumption has been significantly reduced while maintaining a high-quality indoor environment.
📉 According to Gregers Larsen from the facility team that manages the Water House, the results have been substantial:
From the municipality’s perspective, the project has also been carefully evaluated.
Ole Magnussen, Energy Specialist at Hjørring Municipality, highlights that the achieved savings result in a total payback period of approximately one year.

In 2024, the Water House project was selected as one of Borsen’s 50 Sustainability Cases. This recognized it as a practical example of how energy-efficient air movement can reduce energy consumption in energy-intensive buildings such as aquatic centres.
