Save on heating costs by using an ENERGY STAR® certified ceiling fan to better circulate air. A ceiling fan can push the hot air that has risen back down towards you, on the floor.
During the winter, set your ceiling fan to spin clockwise. This upward airflow pulls warm air down from the ceiling and redistributes it throughout the room, so the room feels warmer without cranking up the heat. Bonus – fans also keep your home cooler in summer!
In the summer, switch your fan to counterclockwise. This faster, downward airflow creates a refreshing breeze, helps maintain an even room temperature, and reduces how often your air conditioner needs to run.
