This is the replacement wire mesh fan guard for PolarCool 36" evaporative cooling fans, the barrier that keeps hands and debris away from the spinning propeller. If your existing guard is bent, rusted through, or missing sections, this is the direct fit part to restore that safety barrier.
The PolarCool 36" Mesh Guard Replacement is a genuine OEM safety component, not a universal aftermarket cut sheet. It is built from wire mesh sized to match the exact mounting footprint of the 36" fan housing, so the guard sits flush and holds its shape under continuous outdoor duty cycles. Note: If you would like to review the manufacturer Product Specifications, Warranty, Brochure, etc., for this system, please refer to the "Resources (System Manuals and Warranty)" Tab above on this page.
Critical Fitment & Requirements
- Fits PolarCool 36" black and stainless steel evaporative cooling fan models, including the 36" Single Speed Fan.
- Pre-cut mesh sized specifically for 36" fan housings — no field trimming needed.
- Installation requires removing and replacing 4 metal angles and rivets that secure the guard.
- NOT sized for PolarCool fan models other than the 36" black or stainless steel units — do not attempt to force-fit on a different fan diameter.
Key Benefits
- Genuine PolarCool replacement component built to the original fit spec.
- Durable wire mesh construction designed to withstand wear and tear in outdoor cooling applications.
- Pre-cut to size, which shortens installation time versus trimming a universal mesh sheet.
- Restores the safety barrier that keeps outside objects away from the rotating fan propeller.
- Uses the same 4-point metal angle and rivet mounting system as the original guard, so no drilling or modification is needed.
