FWIW: be careful doing that... compressed air can spin the fan faster than it
is designed for which can lead to the metal shaft heating and wearing out the
nylon bearing which will lead to more problems... when we blow our fans out, we
 make sure to hold them somehow to prevent them from spinning up so as to avoid
 this...
