I’ve been living in my house for like 5 months now, and the ceiling fans were installed after we moved in. The three ceiling fans are Hampton Bay. We don’t really use the ones in my room and my mom’s room that much but my brother’s room is hot (even in winter because we live in FL) so he always runs the fan. Obviously when he’s at school he turns it off and there was no concern but now that my cousin is using my room me an my older brother (who would be using my room) are in my little brother’s room. As a result the room is always occupied by one of us and it is too hot, no matter how cold we put the A/C so we always have to run the fan. I know that really good fans can run 24/7 but I don’t know if Hampton Bay ceiling fan motors can handle that. So far my brother’s fan has been running on High/Middle speed for almost 2 weeks non- stop and I’m afraid it burns out. It is a fairly new fan and works perfectly fine, I just want to make sure it won’t break. Can we keep it running for that long?

Hampton Bay makes good fans. Running ti 24/7 it should last about 6 -10 years. When they start to wear out they don’t (burn out) they get noisy. I wouldn’t worry the things aren’t supper expensive and pay for themselves in energy savings.

Help with remote controls for ceiling fans?

    Hampton fans are expensive and last a long time – nothing to worry about
