Ceiling
fan
performance
and
ene
r
gy
savings
rely
heavily on the proper installation and use of
the
ceiling
fan. Here are a few tips
to
ensure quality and product
performance.
Choosing

Appropriate
Mounting
Location.
Ceiling
fans
should
be
installed, or
mounted
, in
the
middle of
the
room and
at
least 2
.1
m above the floor
and 46 cm from
the
walls. If ceiling height allows, install
the

75
m above
the
floor
for
optimal
airflow
.
Consult
your
Retailer
for
optional
mounting accessories.

Using the Ceiling Fan Year Round. In the summe
r,
use
the
ceiling fan in
the
counter-clockwise direction.
The airflow produced
by
the ceiling fan creates a wind-
chill effect, maki
ng
you "feel" coole
r.
Select a fan speed
that
provides
a
comfortable
breeze,
lowe
r
speeds
consume less ener
gy
. In the winter, reverse the motor
and
operate
the
ceiling
fan
at
low
speed
in
the
clockwise
direct
ion . This produces a
ge
ntle updraft,
which
fo
rces
wa
rm air
near
the ceiling down into the
occupied space. Remember to adjust your thermostat
when
us
i
ng
your cei ling fan - additional ener
gy
and
dollar savings could be realized with this simple step!
Turn Off When Not in the Room. Ceiling fans cool
people, not rooms. If the room is unoccupied,
tu
rn off
the
ceiling fan
to
save energy.
