Hunter Fan Company invented the auto-balancing ceiling fan. This technology uses a flexible disc that ensures fan blades operate smoothly and evenly with each rotation, this is true wobble free technology which is not available on any other ceiling fan.

Hunter fans are made from top quality materials and they are built to last, the lifetime guarantee on the Airmax motors is testament to this!

Ceiling fans have become more popular over the last few years. They are the ultimate home accessory, ideal for use in your lounge, kitchen, dining room, bedroom or conservatory. They look great and the downdraft from a ceiling fan provides a cooling wind chill effect which makes you feel up to 5 degrees cooler.

In the winter, ceiling fans working in reverse reclaim hot air trapped in the ceiling, this can lower heating costs by as much as 25%. Ceiling fans can also cut your cooling costs in summer, reducing existing air conditioning bills by up to 40% by moving the colder air up.

While many ceiling fans may look like a Hunter fan, if it's not built by Hunter it won't be as quiet, smooth, balanced and beautifull and won't have the same warranty.

Some important facts to consider before making your purchase....

How good is the fan at moving air?
How quiet is the fan?
Will the fan wobble?
How long will the fan last?
Will the manufacturer stand behind the warranty?

Many competitors fans do not move much air

A ceiling fan that looks nice but moves little air is a comfort to no one. One of the keys to proper air movement is blade pitch. The greater the pitch (angle of the blade) the greater the air movement but this is prviding that the blade pitch has been properly harmonized with the motor. Some manufacturers skimp on materials and don’t use powerful enough motors to support the blade pitch required, so they compromise on blade pitch, sacrificing proper air movement to reduce the stress on undersized or under-powered motors. Many fans also use extra thin blades to reduce cost. The reduced blade surface area means reduced air movement.

Why fans are noisy

An electrical humming created when a ceiling fan is running is usually the result of poor engineering design and a lack of precision manufacturing. Some manufacturers use inexpensive ball bearings to reduce cost, even though these are a common source of operating noise. A lack of proper dampening between metal parts can also create and intensify noise, as can the use of extra thin materials.

Why ceiling fans wobble

Many factors can produce fan wobble. Substandard blade materials and improper blade sealing can produce blades that absorb moisture and warp—a prime source of wobble. Blades that are not matched in carefully weighed and balanced sets can also wobble. Inconsistent blade mounting brackets can create varying degrees of pitch (blade angle), throwing a fan into an unbalanced wobble. And poorly manufactured motors have rotors that can easily get out of balance, generating wobble from the very heart of the fan. Inexpensive mounting systems with pin fasteners can also contribute to wobble.

Common reasons for ceiling fan breakdown

Motor size and blade pitch are not matched correctly.
Inferior quality on/off pull chains can become faulty and be pulled out of the housing.
Inadequate quality, testing, manufacturing and inspection procedures send poor quality fans to market.
Defective motor windings can lead to electrical shorts in the motor.
Low quality fan bearings may be “shielded” on only one side which allows dust to enter causing premature failure.
Inexpensive materials, poor engineering, and substandard manufacturing processes are used to create “bargain” fans.

Why Brass Finishes Are Not Alike

In the beginning all brass finishes look great. Then tarnish and dark spots begin to appear. You may even notice the brass on the fan is a different color than the light kit you just added!

Hunter warranty

Hunter backs its Airmax motor fans with a lifetime motor warranty, and backs that warranty with nearly 120 years experience. No other manufacturer has that kind of record to stand on.
