It moves very normal speed at setting#1? IS there something wrong? for 5017 CFM, I expected it move lot of air, just underneath the fan it is good

The fan doesn't spin as if it wants to take off, I'll give you that. However, we have two of these each in rooms larger than 14x18. It moves so much air that it's almost too cold. I'm not a fan expert, but I would buy this fan a million times over. Make sure you have your summer/winter setting switched correctly. And if that doesn't work, contact their customer service. We had an issue with our order and they sent us a replacement with no hassle.

I would be checking with Westinghouse, since it looks like capacitor could be bad from their website FAQ.Just surprising the capacitor would go bad on first day use.On speed #2 and 3 it rotates very slowly ,May be 3 rotations per 3 secs.

The fan performs flawlessly, it move the air quite normal, I use mostly the lower speed, it also depends on the hight of the ceiling, and size of the room you are controlling, the fan circulate the air as it is meant to do

is the fan leveled? Mine is a bit loud but that's just the fan. Honest I got used to it being a little loud

Not bad at all. It uses a larger, slower fan to move the air (can kind of see the cut-outs for it on the right side of the unit in the picture). We use it in the garage to drive a noisy high-speed spindle, though, so noise hasn't been a concern for us.

It doesn't oscillate in the normal manner in which the fan moves itself....what happens with this one is the front louvered panel rotates in a circle which causes the air to move in different directions. Sounds strange but it works great. I own 3 of these. And you control the movement at the touch of a button. It can blow straight or "oscillate" so to speak.

Forgot to mention, the case fan is quite loud so I would either replace it with a quiet one or get a simple fan speed controller. This is what i got.

My unit fan runs continuously no matter what the setting. I never hear the compressor kick in.I am concerned about my electric bill also. How did any of you speak to a representative? All I got was to e-mail them and I have not heard back. Right now I am trying to use the bucket and see if shuts off when the bucket is full. What is a good setting for a large basement? I would appreciate any help.

well there are two settings inside the fan one for cfm and one for how long the fan stays on after being triggered by motion sensor.

Stebs,Don't worry. I've had mine running for several months with two R9 270x cards and the fan hasn't moved. It's only used for cooling, and only used rarely. I keep my machine running 24/7 mining X-13 algo coins and other crypto, fan had never moved. :) Hope this helps!

It seems like the bigger the load the more the fan runs. It must be temp controlled as the fan goes on and off.

Hopefully, you have air slots or vents in the hotter components. If you have air vented slots on the sides and bottom, mount the fan below, if you have vented slots on the top, mount the fan unit above to draw the heat away.If you have room in the rack to space the components from each other, that is best. It is a little noisy, but works well. If you can, put the fan closest to your most critical component that is effected by heat

I'm very satisfied with the fan. It's relatively quiet, good air flow and looks nice. It should do fine in a room of that size. You may have to run on the higher speed.

My room for the fan is about the same size as yours and I feel like it does a great job moving air, just as well as my previous one which was actually 48". I love how much of a smaller footprint it has and how much closer to the ceiling. By the way my ceiling is standard height. I haven't needed to use high speed yet.

Check the manual here for the troubleshooting section: http://www.soleusair.com/Manuals/2011%20Manual/SG-DEH-30M%2045%2070-1A%20Soleus%20Manual%203-31-2011.pdfSometimes I think it's just the fan kicking up a speed every once in a while.

Indeed it does, as soon as the temperature hits 40 the fan is moving near 150rpm. If the load is sustained or increases the RPM jumps accordingly. Its got a 140mm double ball bearing fan so it doesn't need to move very fast at all to push a lot of air. I use eco mode and have all of my fans running on a NZXT SENTRY 2 controller on automatic with temp sensors at all major components, it's dead silent for such a large rig and fans on every surface (including a 300mm blow hole).

Chances are it pushes less air than you're default fan, at least it did for me . I was debating between a new card or new fan, i should have chosen a new card because I've had to buy one anyways

System , somewhere in the case , probably where air isnt directly hitting it . CPU , on/near heatsink (dont let it get too near the fan .HDD - ?????????? I just have this one in my system as well ...

In my opinion it is very quiet. I was surprised by how much air such a quiet fan could move.
