For those of you that have a ceiling fan, it's time to reverse the rotation for winter. Doing so could save you up to 40% on electricity bills and 40% on energy consumption. Here's how it works: Ceiling fans don't actually lower the temperature in a room. Instead, they affect the wind chill factor. This means that in a room with a temperature of 78º and fan on, the room could be perceived to feel more like 72º; it's important to understand that the temperature is not actually affected. Winter Time: Set your ceiling fan to rotate Clockwise (looking up at the fan) and the blades pointed downward in the leading direction. This will cause the air to be pushed upward. Ceiling fans often have a switch conveniently labeled "Winter Mode". Summer Time: Set your ceiling fan to rotate Counter Clockwise (looking up at the fan) and the blades pointed upward in the leading position. This will cause the air to pushed downward.
