And the filter will need cleaning more often.


That I suppose would mean that the air in the house is cleaner.

But only a little bit

I always leave mine on auto. These are mattters of taste, and De
gustibus, no est disputandum (or something like that: There is no

disputing with regard to taste.) but I don't care if there are minor
variations in temperature, and I like the silence when the fan is off
altoghether. It would drive me crazy to have it on all the time.r.


A constant noise is less distracting than one that changes (on and
off) unpredictably.


To some people.

This is a matter of taste.

This I really can't spell: Chaque a sangue. Each to his own taste.

BTW, I remember spending the night with someone who left the fan on
all the time, and the room I slept in was next to the furnace. I never
noticed the fan after a few minutes except once. That time, it was a
power failure.

leave it on AUTO unless you need the added ventilation.
