House fans are for houses -- they're not designed to operate in barns! The motors are not in well-sealed containers and the dirt accumulates, and it is a fire hazard (read this Horse Journal article FMI). At BYOF barns I generally threw away my fans and replaced them every year. Someone recently posted this photo on Facebook, and it is a good reminder of what can happen.
