Fan Maintenance And Care: Tips For Extending Service Life

For Leapin, proper service is a fan's maintenance. As a fan-building company, we have learned much about how much of a difference regular care makes in enhancing the lives of our fans. In this article, we shall be sharing some of the tips that would help you maximize your Leapin fans’ potential. 

Regular Fan Cleaning

Accumulation of dirt and debris on fan blades results in reduced efficiency and may lead to breakage in the long term.  To avoid this it is vital to clean your Leapin fan a regular basis.  A soft brush or cloth can be used for gentle cleaning of the blades and peripherals.  If the fan is extremely dirty, use a small amount of mild detergent and water, but it should be dry enough before being switched on again.

Lubricating Moving Parts

Leapin axial fans do have some moving parts, and for these parts lubrication is extremely important, over time it is common for bearings or any other part to face wear and tear due to friction.  A small amount of lubricant can be perfect in reducing the wear and tear of these hinges resulting in smooth function and prolonged life of your fan.

Inspecting Fan Electrical Connections

Fan devices either stop functioning or become hazardous due to wiring issues.  Keep checking the wiring inside a Leapin fan sometimes to see if there are any signs of damage, tugging, or fitting loose. If you feel like you may not be able to self-handle these problems, consider getting expert help to check it for you.  

Checking Fan Functionality

Look out for any weird sounds, vibrations, and fluctuations in air volume when the device is functioning.  Being able to nip in the bud early issues will save more costly repairs in the future.  Should any of these worrying signs show up, check the user manual or get in touch with our customer care representatives.

Properly Storing Your Fan  

When not in use make sure the fan is appropriately stored as wrong storage means unkept fans. Make sure to keep it in a ventilated secure place that is not humid or too hot and out of the reach of sunlight.  Also, put a cover on it so that dust and dirt particles do not settle on the fan.  The fan will be in good form and ready to be used whenever the situation calls for it.
