Usha introduces power-saving bi-directional fans

12 Feb 2021 CW Staff

Usha International, India’s leading producer of fans, recently launched their new ABS blade ceiling fan called Heleous, with power-saving features.

The Heleous fan comes with high-tech features like 3-D aerodynamic ABS blades for smoother airflow, high 260 cu m per min air delivery and whisper-quiet operation. A high-torque BLDC motor ensures low-temperature rise, higher efficiency, low power consumption of only 43 watts and better speed control.

The fan’s bi-directional rotation helps run the fan anti-clockwise during summer months to blow cool breeze downwards, and clockwise during winter to circulate the warm air trapped closer to the ceiling downwards, thus, making it suitable to use around the year. It also comes with a point-anywhere RF remote for convenient operations.
