Is it better to leave the fan set to [on] in the summer with AC?
Two people I know do this and I have heard that it is better for the blower motor. Is there a benefit to having the blower on all the time? Will that be too much extra cost in electricity and outweigh any benefit?

fan pulls very little amperage. i run mine all the time, not just for air movement, but better filtration

My original question, is it bad or better for that blower fan to run all the time?
