What is the primary purpose of a fan control?

The primary purpose of a fan control is to manage the blower fan motor, which is responsible for moving air through the appliance. This includes regulating airflow for heating or cooling processes, ensuring that the system operates efficiently and maintains the desired temperature within the space. By controlling the operation of the blower, the fan control plays a crucial role in the overall performance of the appliance, impacting both comfort and efficiency.

While energy consumption, temperature settings, and air quality are important aspects of an appliance's operation, they are secondary to the fan control’s main function. The fan control doesn't directly monitor air quality or adjust temperature settings; instead, it specifically focuses on activating and deactivating the blower fan as needed to circulate air effectively, thereby supporting the appliance’s overall operation.
