How much electricity does a ceiling fan use?
A ceiling fan uses roughly 29 to 100 watts depending on the motor. An ordinary induction fan draws 75-100W; a modern Aapanam BLDC fan runs on just 29-38W for the same breeze - so it costs about 60% less to run. Here are the real numbers.
| Fan type | Power | Units / month | Cost / month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ordinary induction fan | 75-100 W | about 36-48 units | about Rs 288-384 |
| Aapanam BLDC fan | 29-38 W | about 14-18 units | about Rs 112-146 |
Based on running 16 hours a day at Rs 8 per unit. Actual cost varies with your usage hours, tariff and fan model.
Cut your fan electricity bill
Switching one ordinary fan to an Aapanam BLDC fan saves roughly Rs 2,100 every year. Across a home of four or five fans, that is Rs 8,000-10,000 saved a year - and every Aapanam BLDC fan carries a 5-year motor warranty.
