Is the fan supposed to stay on all the time? When I initially power down the unit it turns off. After 10 seconds a fan turns on and stays on.

Yes it does. I don't know why it's like that. I haven't bothered to look in the settings to try to change it, but I'm not sure that you can. You can just unplug the power cord and it will not do it.

The fan on ours goes off often, but no, no buzzing. Is it still under warrantee? We had to use our warranty, and although lengthy, the customer service was able to (fina;;y) help us.

It automatically changes the fan speed as needed. I'm not sure if it ever completely turns the fan off or if it is just at a very low speed.

WARNING: Fans on units built after 2014 designed to NEVER shut off!I just bought this (April 2015) and the fan never shuts off -- it runs all the time regardless of whether the compressor shuts off. Even 3 hours after the compressor shuts off, it will run.The only way to stop the fan is to put it on the timer... but that only means it will run for the length of time you set on the time. Then it will never turn on again.

The fan should run when the unit is on. Contact the manufacture for specific operation questions.

Allot of confusion here, I was told the fan runs all the time and since some say they claim their fan does not, I called Frigidaire and they say the FAN DOES RUN ALL THE TIME, only thing that cycles is the compressor. The fan is energy efficient and keeps air on the move doing a better job, but...their own manual does not state the fan operates all the time. Not sure what models some have that claim the fan turns off when the humidiy level is reached......seems to be allot of confusion over this.

yeah, that would be extremely annoying :) I have mine running a PC case fan that blows on it while its on, then the built-in fan never runs, and PC fan is MUCHO quieter.

It is possible that when in backup mode it gets noisy but in normal standby mode with the line voltage such that it is not operating from battery, the fan is not running at all. I never noticed any noise.

Just bought one. The fan does NOT run all the time. Fan always runs when compressor runs and sometimes runs when compressor is off. Fan shuts off soon after compressor does, but periodically runs so that humidity sensor can sample the room air. If air is too moist, the compressor kicks in. If not, fan turns back off. Sensible design.

No, the fan stays on. It is the fan that moves the heat out into the room. Hope this helps.

On my unit the fan will only turn off if the unit shuts down due to a full bucket. Otherwise the compressor cycles on and off depending on what you have the humidity control set at, but the fan runs all the time. Like the service rep told you, the unit won't know what the room humidity is if the fan isn't moving the room's air through the unit.

I think it depends on the mode you have selected. Once our room is heated to the desired level, we usually choose a manual mode so we do not have the fan cycling. I suggest trying different modes, and if fan cycles on and off in each mode, you may have a problem. Good luck.

Hi - that is not normal. I bought this same model a few months ago & when it is on auto mode (the mode it defaults to when you first turn it on) then the fan speed decreases on mine automatically as the air quality improves. However, if it is not on auto mode, and you are manually choosing turbo/or fan speed, then yes - it will stay on that speed until you manually choose a lower fan speed on the remote even if the air quality is clean. Hope that helps!

Sorry I cannot help you there. When I bought mine I am not sure if the fan was defective but when I turned it on it bearly, I mean bearly blew any heat, so I sent it back to Amazon and did not get a new one.

Just bought mine today and turned it on 4 - experiencing a similar problem: Every several minutes the fan will decrease for a second and then go back to normal. It's almost like a power issue, but I don't notice lights dimming or anything else other than the fan noise for that second...
