Read the GuideUnderstanding Cooling Metrics
Before purchasing any electric fan, it is vital to understand the standardized metrics used to measure their performance and efficiency.
CFM
Cubic Feet per Minute. Measures the volume of air the fan moves. Higher CFM equals more air circulation.
dB (A)
Decibels (A-weighted). Indicates the operating noise level. A quiet bedroom fan should operate below 45 dB.
Watts
Energy consumption. Modern DC motors use up to 70% less wattage than traditional AC motors for the same airflow.
