Why is my Greenheck ERVe making excessive noise and vibration?
- KKenneth JohnsonAug 10, 2025
Excessive noise or vibration in your Greenheck Fan can stem from several issues. It could be due to the fan wheel rubbing on the inlet, which requires adjusting the wheel or inlet cone and tightening the wheel hub or bearing collars on the shaft. Other potential causes include defective, misaligned, or unlubricated bearings (replace/lubricate/realign/tighten), an out-of-balance wheel (replace/rebalance), a loose wheel on the shaft (tighten setscrew), or loose motor/blower sheave (tighten setscrew). Also, check for loose or overtightened belts (adjust/replace), a loose motor base or blower (tighten bolts), material buildup on the wheel (clean), or noise transmitted by the duct (ensure proper support/stiffness/size).
