What's going on with the power failures in Texas?
#17
That is NOT true. Motors and heaters use the most electricity. A fan/blower is a motor with blades on the end, or a squirrel cage on the end.

Just ask any restaurant owner. He has cold storage rooms that have refrigeration compressors, a multiple exhaust fans over the grills, exhaust fans to move heat out of the kitchen, and large heating/cooling units on the roof to keep the dining area happy. Ask him about his electric bill.

Sure, but furnace blowers don't use that much electricity so they're not the reason the grid is overloaded.
