How does the Modern Fan Cirrus Hugger Compare to the Average Ceiling Fan?

Quality = 5 (average is 3)
With a Quality Rating of 5, this fan is among the finest quality ceiling fans made. It will run smooth and quiet without wobbling or making noise and you can let it run 24 hours a day for years on end without any worries of the motor burning out.

CFM Airflow = 6618 (average is 5755)
6618 CFM is a good amount of aiflow and is above average. We highly recommend ceiling fans that move at least this amount of air in order to provide enough wind chill effect to keep you cool. Fans like this will allow you to raise your thermostat by several degrees, which will help you save additional money on your cooling bills.

Efficiency = 75 (average is about 76)
An Efficiency Rating of 75 is pretty close to average. Efficiency is defined by the EPA as the amount of airflow a fan produces (CFM) divided by the amount of electricity (Watts) it uses on high speed without any lights on. Efficiency is less important than Airflow because more CFMs allow you to raise your thermostat higher...which is where you will save the most energy. Efficiency becomes more important if you expect to operate several ceiling fans at the same time. (see calculator below)

Watts = 88 (average is about 76)
88 Watts per hour is higher than average, so this fan costs a little more to operate than other fans. Use the calculator below to estimate just how much it will cost to operate this fan in "Your home".

How to use our Ceiling Fan Cost Calculator

Basic Help: Our cost usage calculator shows you how much it will cost to operate the Modern Fan Cirrus Hugger ceiling fan. By default, the calculator assumes that you will leave your fan running 24 hours a day for the entire year (which is not very likely to be accurate), so you will want to change the hours and days to be more in line with how often you think you will use the fan. The calculator also defaults to the average cost per kWh of electricity in the USA. You can change this to use the average cost of electricity in your state, although this may vary widely from city to city. For the most accurate calculation, manually enter the actual cost/kWh shown on your utility bill. The wattage of the fan is already included (if it is known), but you can change it if you wish to see how the wattage affects the cost.

Fans with lights: Calculations are performed without lights by default. If you add a light fixture to the fan, you can add the wattage of the fixture to the wattage of the fan to perform calculations with the lights on. In some cases, when a light fixture of known wattage is included with the fan, the option to calculate with or without lights will show automatically. The light fixture on a ceiling fan almost always uses substantially more electricity than the fan motor, so it is very important to take that into account when comparing the overall operational cost between various ceiling fans

CFM -vs- Efficiency: CFM is KING! It is more important to buy a fan with higher CFMs than it is to buy a fan that uses less electricity. The highest wattage consumed by the most energy guzzling ceiling fan on our website is about 120 watts. So if you input 120 as the fan watts and run our calculator, you will see that it still costs less than 2 cents per hour to operate the most energy guzzling ceiling fan in most states. You will get more savings with a higher CFM fan than a lower Wattage fan because if your fan moves more air you will be able to raise your thermostat to a higher degree. Raising your thermostat by 10 degrees can save you up to 40% on your cooling bills. Choosing a less powerful fan because it uses less electricity can be the worst mistake you can make because it will not cool you off enough to allow you to raise your thermostat to a high enough level without becoming uncomfortable. This is why CFM is so much more important to consider than Wattage.

The average kWh by state used by our calculator is derived from information published by the US Government Department of Energy as of May 2009. Your actual cost may differ from this. Again, refer to your utility bill for your most recent kWh cost.

RPMs	CFMs	Amps	Watts	EPA Efficiency (CFMs/Watt)
High: 225 Med: 139 Low: 51	High: 6618 Med: 3793 Low: 1229	High: NA Med: NA Low: NA	High: 88.5 Med: 33.9 Low: 5.5	High: 75 Med: 112 Low: 223

"NA" means that the data was not available at the time this information was published or the manufacturer simply does not test for the data that is missing. Hugger fans are excempt from EPA required performance testing, so data is rarely available for hugger fans.
