Ceiling fan electricity usage

What is electricity consumption of average/common ceiling fan?

A ceiling fan is a typical home device that is fixed to the ceiling and rotates paddles or blades in a circular motion using an electric motor. By circulating the air and causing evaporative cooling, ceiling fans assist in cooling a space. A normal 48 inch ceiling fan will require 75 watts, and fans range in size from 36 inches to 56 inches, needing 55 to 100 watts.

To calculate the energy usage of a 48-inch ceiling fan utilizing 75 Watts for three hours a day at a cost of $0.10 per kWh, click calculate.

Kilowatts per dayhelp Here you will see a value for how much energy (in watts, kilowatts or megawatts) the device will consume per day if it is used for the time you specify. The formula "Hours used per day" × "Power use" is used.:

Watts Kilowatts Megawatts

Hours Used Per Day: Indicate the average number of hours per day that the device is used. If the daily power usage is less than one hour, enter the number as a decimal (for instance, 30 minutes a day equals 0.5).

Power Use (Watts): Type in the watts that represent the device's typical power use.

Price (kWh): Enter the price per kilowatt hour you pay typically; our calculators use a default value of 0.10 (10 cents). Check your power bill for the precise cost.

If you are comfortable utilizing fans to cool yourself during hot weather, you will be able to save energy and money because they are far less expensive to run than air conditioners. If no one is in the room, switch off the ceiling fan since it does not chill the air in the space. Because moving air causes water to evaporate from the surface of your skin, which makes you feel cooler, a room feels colder while the fan is operating.
