Condenser fans, evaporator fans

What make are you buying?
Who to your opinion is a good manufacturer, and why?

I have had enough with low cost and low quality fans from the far, far east.

For old prestcold stuff i have been fitting Remco motors lately and not had any problems with them, but to be honest i never had any problems with the Lemac ones i used to use, but the Remco ones look nicer :D

For shaded pole motors i've just started using FMI motors which are multi fit and come with a selection of screws/nuts etc to make fitting easier. My local wholesaler says he had least problems with CE Set (spelling?) but has problems getting them now.

On other stuff i just get original parts or whatever the wholesaler has that fits :D

They used to be elcold i think there called BUT they have been changed for power house and they are fanstatic out of about 100 iv have 1 faulty and it was due to me cracking the white plastic thing the fan blade sits on.

About £1.00 dearer depending on wattage but 100times better.

Much longer cords on the and they come in a nice box so there not rolling about ur van

Sorry, the reason I choose motors (with fans blades included) = becos they blushless type = energy savings.
