Assuming the bulb is properly cooled by the fan, leaving it on for long periods is LESS harmful than turning the bulb on and off frequently. All bulbs are most stressed at turn on. This is ture with incandescent, fluorescent, metal halide, etc. I have never had a bulb fail while in use, its always at turn on.
