2. Ceiling fan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceiling_fan

   It is considered the most energy-efficient motor ever manufactured for ceiling fans (apart from the DC motor) since it consumes less energy than a household incandescent light bulb. The Emerson "Heat Fan", the first ceiling fan to use a stack motor A close-up of the dropped flywheel on a FASCO "Charleston" ceiling fan. Stack-motor ceiling fans.

3. Fan (machine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_(machine)

   Five-blade or six-blade designs are rare. The materials from which the components are made, such as brass, are important factors in fan desirability. A ceiling fan is a fan suspended from the ceiling of a room. Most ceiling fans rotate at relatively low speeds and do not have blade guards because they are inaccessible and unwieldy.

4. Light fixture - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_fixture

   Ceiling fan – may sometimes have a light, often referred to as a light kit mounted to it. Ceiling fans with built-in lights may eliminate the need for separate overhead light fixtures in a room, and light kits can also replace any ceiling-mounted light fixtures that were displaced by the installation of the ceiling fan.

5. Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating,_ventilation,_and...

   In summer, ceiling fans and table/floor fans circulate air within a room for the purpose of reducing the perceived temperature by increasing evaporation of perspiration on the skin of the occupants. Because hot air rises, ceiling fans may be used to keep a room warmer in the winter by circulating the warm stratified air from the ceiling to the ...

6. High-volume low-speed fan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-volume_low-speed_fan

   A High-volume low-speed fan. A high-volume low-speed (HVLS) fan is a type of mechanical fan greater than 7 feet (2.1 m) in diameter. [1] HVLS fans are generally ceiling fans although some are pole mounted. HVLS fans move slowly and distribute large amounts of air at low rotational speed– hence the name "high volume, low speed."

7. Casablanca Fan Company - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casablanca_Fan_Company

   In 1979, Casablanca introduced their Silent-Flex flywheel to replace the milled-aluminum flywheels they had been using prior. The Silent-Flex flywheel was a double-torus made of soft rubber with die-cast zinc reinforcements that acted as a shock absorber to virtually eliminate the transmission of vibration and noise from the fan's motor to the blades.

8. TEFC motor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TEFC_motor

   TEFC enclosed motors usually cost more than open motors, but offer increased protection against weather, dirt, and moisture. TEFC motors are constructed with a small fan on the rear shaft of the motor, covered by a housing. This fan forces air over the motor frame fins, and cools the motor. The enclosure is "Totally Enclosed". This means that ...

9. Brushless DC electric motor - Wikipedia
