Abstract

A fan assembly designed for quick assembly and disassembly can include a housing, a fan and a motor disposed within the housing, a first guard located on a first side and a second guard located on a second side of the housing. The fan assembly can include a tensioner mechanism provided on an exterior of the housing to secure the first and the second guards to the housing. The fan assembly can be assembled by securing a plurality of struts to an interior side of a housing, mounting a fan and motor to the plurality of struts, inserting first and second guards within the housing proximate the inlet and outlet ends, and tensioning the first and second free ends of the housing to secure the first and second guards within the housing.
