I fixed it.
I’ve changed the bushings on my fan (industrial fan from ~ 1980) already 3 times in it’s service life. And regreased it each season. If it dares to die i’ll go and pull it back fom hell myself. Modern stuff can’t hold a candle to that monster.
Hate to tell you but you still can get decent industrial fans. Recent ones might not even have any bushings you might have to change nor bearings that might wear out. Failing ventilation can get painfully expensive, nowadays, so reliable industrial fans are basic for all kinds of certified systems.
This is an Iranian guy who lived in a hole, smoked camel turds, and supposedly never took a bath his whole life.
Just a little internet trivia as I haven’t seen this pic in like 15 years.
If I recall he died not long after he actually finally did take a bath.
Does this person never leave their room? Why run the fan when the room isn’t occupied? That’s just wasted electricity…
Because when I’m not there my great Pyrenees likes to jump onto my bed and sleep directly in front of it as well while I’m at work.
(fan just out of frame)A fan blowing in an unoccupied room can help ventilate the entire house?
Are we assuming open windows or something? Either way, I’ve never seen ceiling fans used for ventilation, only for the same purpose as a floor fan, blowing air at you so you can cool down. Is ventilation a common use case in some places?
Box fan, in the window, pointing out. Very common, there’s one going in my house right now. Yes it is full of hair and shit.
Yeah I was picturing a window fan, not a ceiling far too.
I had a fan that ran for years but when I turned it off it wouldn’t turn back on again.
I have a small air circulator, not a “fan,” and it is perfect for a 10x10 foot bedroom on low. Plus, it’s super easy to take apart and clean. I’ve had this thing for more than 20 years.
But I want a rush of air directly pointed into my face as I sleep
It does that! The only real difference between an air circulator and a generic fan is that it pushes more air. The low setting on this thing is as good as high on most other fans of the same size.
