Using an energy-efficient fan to help redistribute the hot air down and the cool air up can create an all-over comfortable living space without having to touch the AC thermostat.Click to see full answer. Accordingly, are fans energy efficient? Energy-efficient whole-house fans Exact energy amounts vary based on the size of the fan’s motor, but most whole-house fans use between 120 and 600 watts, according to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory—but this is still much less energy than a central air-conditioner uses.Likewise, how much power does a box fan use? A nominal box fan operates at roughly 50-100 watts. Thus, on average, it would be 75 watts for a box fan. So that, after division, would be 0.075 kW/h. Considering this, how much electricity does a fan use overnight? At the midpoint, 70 watts, if a kilowatt costs 10 cents per hour, the fan would cost 0.7 cents per hour (0.07 kwh x 10 cents). Extend that out to a month and it works out to $5.04 per month if it runs around the clock (0.7 cents per hour x 24 hours x 30 days).Is it expensive to run a fan all night?We asked Energyhelpline to estimate the average cost and a spokesperson said running a fan for 12 hours a night would cost between 5p and 14p in total. This is worked out by taking an average fan, which has a watt of between 25 and 75, and looking at the average price of a unit of energy from a big six provider at 16p.
