Abstract
An efficient fan controller for Heating Ventilating Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems including at least one electrical signal input from thermostat or equipment control terminals with a microprocessor to control a switching device connected to a signal output to control a fan relay and operate a system fan. The microprocessor is configured to monitor a thermostat call for cooling/heating duration and determine a variable fan-off delay based on the cooling cycle or heating cycle duration, and at an end of a cooling/heating cycle energize the fan relay to operate the system fan for the variable fan-off delay. The fan controller can include a heat pump detection signal input and electrical signal inputs to connect to a thermostat heat terminal, heat pump reversing valve terminal, or compressor terminal. The fan controller can also include a normally-closed relay connected to the switching device to maintain continuity between the fan signal input and output.
