Ceiling fans are great aren\u2019t they? Sometimes the moving air is just what you need to cool you down in the heat of the day. But did you know that ceiling fans can make you more comfortable in the winter AND save on your heating bills, too?<\/p>\n
We all know heat rises, right? \u00a0Well wouldn’t it be great if you could bring that heat from the ceiling, down to where you are? \u00a0You can! \u00a0Did you know most ceiling fans\u00a0have a reverse button? \u00a0In reverse (blades move clockwise), a ceiling fan provides an updraft which forces the warm air that is up by the ceiling, downward. \u00a0This helps circulate the warm air around the room more efficiently.<\/p>\n
In the summer, use the ceiling fan in the counterclockwise direction. While standing directly under the ceiling fan you should feel a cool breeze. The airflow produced creates a wind-chill effect, making you “feel” cooler. Remember to adjust your thermostat when using your ceiling fan \u2014 additional energy and dollar savings could be realized with this simple step!<\/p>\n
