Best Aeratron Fans

Great fans (when they work) – We installed three of these fans, which looked fantastic and worked well for two years until two of the remote receivers failed within a month of one… Read more

another. The receivers only have a 12-month warranty, but the fans are useless without them. Aeratron were very professional with their advice (which unfortunately didn't work in our case), then offered to sell us new receiver units, but we were reluctant to spend more money replacing a core component that (in our experience) is not reliable.

earlier fans were fitted with defective bluetooth receivers and 4 to 5 years seemed to be their service life (mine lasted 4 years & 10 months).

Even though it had just fallen outside the 2-year period, they did send me some replacement remote/receiver parts but said I would be responsible for an electrician to install at my cost.

Unfortunately, my electrician advised that attempting to repair it would be expensive, unreliable, and very likely to fail again. He recommended replacing the fan entirely. I now have no working fan heading into summer and I’m facing the cost of buying a completely new fan.

I’m really disappointed to be in this situation with a fan that was lightly used, only a couple of years old, and even recommended by Choice. I genuinely expected better performance and longevity, particularly owing to the high end price. I would appreciate the manufacturer reaching out to help find a fair solution.
