In this episode of OnAire, we kick off 2026 with a powerful conversation with Travis Davis, Operations Manager at a major grain elevator in Kansas. Travis shares how he helped develop and implement SonicAire’s first-ever Class II Division 1 certified fan for hazardous grain environments.

If you’ve ever wondered:

“Can a fan really help with dust in a grain elevator?”

“Why hasn’t the grain industry adopted new dust solutions?”

“How do I reduce manual housekeeping and increase uptime?”

…this episode is for you.

Hear Travis’s honest take on:

How he helped push SonicAire to innovate for grain

What it took to get internal buy-in for something new

The real-world results they’re seeing after installation

Why his crew now takes their dust-free environment for granted (and that’s a good thing)

SonicAire’s fans are a proven technology in textiles, wood, paper, and now — thanks to people like Travis — agriculture. If you’re in grain handling or ag processing and fighting the uphill battle against dust, you’ll want to hear this.
