Why Hunter Fans ® Are More Efficient

Ceiling fan air movement is measured in CFM (cubic feet per minute). The greater the CFM, the more air that is being moved. The air moved by the fan creates a "wind chill effect" that makes you feel more comfortable in a warm room.

Many ceiling fans from other manufacturers simply can’t move the air around a room like a Hunter ceiling fan.

Energy efficiency and air movement

The amount of energy a fan uses, along with the volume of air a fan moves, determines its efficiency. Small, low wattage motors may use little energy, but they also move very little air, making them very inefficient.

The greater the pitch, or angle of the blade the greater the air movement. Some fan manufacturers skimp on materials and have to compromise on blade pitch in order to keep their undersized fan motors from burning out.

Hunter ceiling fans ® are efficient and powerful

More powerful motors means that Hunter ceiling fans ® can use larger blades to catch and move more air. Hunter fan blades are set at the optimum pitch, for maximum airflow, and are weighed and matched in sets, so the fans won't wobble.

Hunter Fans ® generally move more air than competitive models because of custom-engineered motors and blades pitched at the maximum possible angle. For example, the Hunter 52" Original has the greatest air movement, at 10,500 CFM (cubic feet per minute).

Inside and out, Hunter ceiling fans ® are built to last – that’s why every fan comes with a Lifetime Warranty.
