[TenTec] care and feeding of TiTan fan ..

[Henrik Weiss]

My fan had an annoying noise since I bougth it 14 years ago. I replaced
it with a bigger fan mounted on the other side of the wall. 

Tommy, out of curiosity - you said the Titan gave you excellent service
for 12 years. Did it then fail or did you just part with it ?

Hi Bill,

I'm not sure there is anything written about it, but cleaning it sure
does help. On my Titan 425, which gave me 12 years of excellent service,
I made it a habit in the early fall each year to take off the covers and
vacuum out the insides. I also used a small, stiff glue brush and
cleaned off all of the vanes inside of the fan, then put a drop of
sewing machine oil on the bearing felt washer. Don't actually know if
that helped keep things running, but it sure provided me with great
service.

are there some do's  and don'ts on maintaining the fan in the Titan ??
It's seems to be making lot of noise , or should i say it's not as
smooth 
as it used to be , and the case conducts the vibrations to my cabinet, 
which acts to amplify the noise !!   ( love that HercII )
