Aapanam Vixa - Make in India
Energy Efficient Ceiling Fans
Fans run for more hours than almost any other appliance in an Indian home, so their wattage matters. An energy efficient BLDC ceiling fan gives you the same breeze on about half the power - here is how much you save and which Aapanam Vixa model to choose.
Why BLDC is the most energy efficient choice
Most homes still run old induction-motor fans that pull 75-100 watts. A BLDC motor uses electronics instead, so an Aapanam Vixa fan delivers around 220 CMM of air on just 29-38 watts and carries a 5-star efficiency rating. Same comfort, roughly half the electricity - every hour it runs.
What you actually save
Running one fan 16 hours a day, compared with an ordinary induction fan:
- Roughly half the wattage - about 29-38W instead of 75-100W
- Close to 0.7 units of electricity saved per day
- Around Rs 150-170 saved per fan every month at Rs 8 per unit
Actual savings vary with your usage hours, electricity tariff and fan model.

Frequently asked questions
What is the most energy efficient ceiling fan?
A BLDC (brushless DC motor) ceiling fan is the most energy efficient type you can buy today. Aapanam Vixa BLDC fans draw just 29-38 watts and are rated 5-star, against 75-100 watts for the ordinary induction fans still fitted in most homes - roughly half the electricity for the same airflow.
How much can an energy efficient fan save me?
Running one fan about 16 hours a day, a BLDC fan can save close to 0.7 units of electricity per day. At around Rs 8 per unit that is roughly Rs 150-170 saved per fan every month - and a typical home runs several fans for many months of the year.
Do energy efficient fans give less air?
No. Aapanam Vixa fans deliver around 220 CMM of air, the same strong breeze as a good ordinary fan - they simply use a smarter motor to do it on far less power.
Is a 5-star BLDC fan worth the higher price?
For most homes, yes. The monthly saving on your electricity bill usually pays back the higher purchase price within a year or two, and after that the fan keeps saving money for its whole life. You also get a quieter motor, an RF remote and a 5-year motor warranty.
