Fan & Fan Assembly Information

Why are Fan & Fan Assembly Part(s) Important

The Fan and Fan Assembly is important to your car's cooling system. About 66% of the energy produced by your engine is wasted as heat energy and must be dissipated to prevent overheating. This task falls to the Engine Cooling System. A series of tubes send coolant around the engine with the purpose of absorbing the heat and rushing the wasted energy away. The fan and fan assembly helps to cool the coolant moving through your cooling system.

The fan is one of the more important components of the cooling system. It moves air across the radiator to increase its cooling efficiency. It is most useful when the vehicle is idling and not moving. It also helps to keep air moving over the radiator in newer cars that have grills that close at higher speeds to improve aerodynamics. Some cars with electrically powered fans can keep the fan moving after the engine is shut off to keep cooling the engine coolant.
