Fan Motors FAQ

Fan Motors FAQ

2024-09-24

1. My ceiling fan is humming and the motor is not spinning. What's the problem?

In this case, the capacitor in your ceiling fan has gone bad. The fact that it is making a humming noise is the fan is still receiving power but does not have the ability to spin with a bad capacitor. These parts are available for replacement, but any uncertified ceiling fan technician that opens the motor housing of your fan will cause the fan to void the warranty. Another cause for this to happen is the control system for your fan may be the wrong type of system, thus causing the humming noise without the motor to spin.

2. Which Is Better? The DC Or AC Motor Ceiling Fan?

When it comes to energy efficiency and electrical bills, DC (Direct Current) ceiling fans are better than AC (Alternating Current) ones.

DC ceiling fans generally consume less than 60-70% of the power of a typical ceiling fan and have more speed options too. Although they offer significant energy savings and lower electrical bills, DC ceiling fans are typically more expensive than regular ceiling fans.
