Yes, BLDC fans are good in an airconditioned environment but cannot compete with normal fan in airflow probably due to the DC motor. Also BLDC fans have a RPM of 400 while the normal ones have a RPM of 700 (correct me if I am wrong). I think the new model Atomberg fans can be used with normal regulator.
Is there even a need for that unless it is some large space office type setup?
saw it ystd on display in a shop the design is too good
atomberg has always made 2 models one you can use with regulator one without that choose what suits, they have brought new motor and design in 2025 series.
I don't agree. Airflow has to do with the blade design.
My case is reverse. My BLDC fan doesn't need to be pushed above 2nd speed. I also have 2 normal nonBLDC fans in 600 mm size who revolve at 850 RPM, and they push literally 0 air. The rest of the older nonBLDC fans are just fine. I don't think they push more air than the BLDC one.
I'm not aware of the temperature in your region or the local electricity costs. However, if you use fans throughout the year, BLDC fans will pay for themselves within a year. This is a fact that cannot be disputed.
In a typical house without AC, electric geysers, or air coolers, the most electricity consuming appliances are the non-BLDC fans.
I'll be buying a few more fans in a month or so. I won't be buying Atomberg this time as I want precise control on the fan speeds, which Atomberg doesn't provide. Atomberg's first speed itself is too high for comfort.

In my experience, in large space office type setup, where one "room"/ "hall" is significantly over a thousand sq feet, with multiple AC vents, fan is not really required.
In home type setups, where one room is 120-250 sq feet, ACs easily create cold spots and warm spots in a room, and a slow fan helps smooth that out. That is with ACs meant for home use, non-industrial ones, of course.

Recently got my study redone and replaced the older gen creaky ceiling fan with the newer and smaller 900mm Atomberg BLDC fan that works extremely well alongside a 1TR split AC in this Delhi heat.
FWIW, the smaller BLDC fan is way more effective at lower speed levels of 1 or 2 compared to the older and larger sized model it replaced. Extremely happy with the purchase decision!
