Fans come with forward and reverse settings. When you click to 'forward', the fan blows air down. Standing under the fan, you will find it easy. When you click to 'reverse', reversing the rotation of the fan and blow air upward. Now, when you stand under the fan, you will not find it easy.
So, during the winter, turn the fan to 'reverse' to circulate warm air without blowing air down and cooling you in the process. Hot air rises and ceiling fans, walk in reverse, gently mix the air.
During the summer, on the other hand, change it to 'forward' to create a wind chill effect as air moves against your skin and cools you.
So far, what I say applies to rooms with standard 8-foot ceiling. Fan Company recommends this procedure.
"Some people with ceilings higher, such as stairs, often doing the opposite of this," said Marcus Lamp Depot and explain their reasons. Cool air sinks to the floor, causing a lesser degree cooler and warmer upper level. So, in summer, they run the fan on the blowing-up to keep the cool air-conditioned, which came out of the vents above them, upon which they want.
In winter, they run the fan on the blowing-down to move the warm air to lower levels of homes where they spend their time during the day. They felt there was no floor under the draft because they were too far away from the fan.
Interesting post. I like this post.
