Clarage is the oldest fan company that is still in operation in the US history.

Thomas Clarage and Charles Bird founded Clarage in 1874. The company manufactured industrial fan equipment, horizontal steam engines and gray iron castings. In 1912 the company changed its name to Clarage Fan Company. Additional designs of industrial fans and blowers were added to the product line. Eighteen years later, Clarage introduced air conditioning equipment to their expanding list of products and discontinued manufacturing steam engines. Clarage was acquired by Twin City Fan Companies, Ltd. in 1997 and continue to operate independently under its Clarage name.
