Energy Efficiency - heat rises, cold air sits low to your floors. Fans heat and cool YOU and not the room.

1. When not in the room turn it off - fan will use more energy than save you by running.

2. Using the Ceiling Fan Year Round. In the summer, use the ceiling fan in the counter-clockwise direction. The airflow produced by the ceiling fan creates a wind-chill effect, making you "feel" cooler. In the winter, reverse the motor and operate the ceiling fan at low speed in the clockwise direction. This produces a gentle updraft, which forces warm air near the ceiling down into the occupied space. Remember to adjust your thermostat when using your ceiling fan - additional energy and dollar savings could be realized with this simple step!

Ceiling fans are great for checkin weak tips on fishin poles too. Just walk under them with a handful of rods and the weak tips will be snapped off in a jiffy.

Great tip Swede, always good to properly know how to use the fan to save a little money in these high Fuel priced days.
