The Power of Ceiling Fans
Ceiling fans can help improve comfort year-round.
Did you know ceiling fans can make a room feel 4 degrees cooler? To save energy through ceiling fan use, remember to raise your thermostat a few degrees while fans are turned on.
Ceiling fans can help improve comfort year-round. In the summer, operate ceiling fans in a counterclockwise direction. Reverse the direction to clockwise during winter months and set fans on a low speed so warm air can circulate from the ceiling to the lower levels of the room.
Remember, ceiling fans cool people, not spaces. Be sure to turn them off when you leave the room.
