donkpow Posted July 6, 2018 Share #8 Posted July 6, 2018 I disassemble, clean, and lube all the portable fans every year here at the house. It lets them last a long time. I didn't get to them this last winter, it was a bad winter for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

12string Posted July 6, 2018 Share #11 Posted July 6, 2018 Spray a whole lot of WD-40 at the back side of the fan while it's running. That way you'll be sure to get some WD-40 in some place that might need it anyway. If that doesn't work, turn up the radio, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longjohn Posted July 6, 2018 Share #13 Posted July 6, 2018 I did maintenance for a motel for awhile and I had to take all the exhaust fans down and soak them in a special solution when they got noisy. It restored them like new. Not sure what it was called but it came in a five gallon bucket. Never had to replace a fan when I worked there, it always took care of the problem.

Kzoo Posted July 6, 2018 Share #16 Posted July 6, 2018 So far I count one fan of Petite's. Not enough to actually start a fan club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
