Ceiling fans are a great way to circulate cooled or heated air throughout your home. ENERGY STAR qualified ceiling fans are always equipped with a reverse mode that allows the fan to spin in two directions. In summer it should turn counter-clockwise, which creates a downward cooling breeze. In winter, it should be reversed to direct the air upward (clockwise). This creates a down draft that forces warm air down into the living area. To ensure continued energy-efficiency, light fixtures in ENERGY STAR ceiling fans accept only GU-24 (pin-based) Compact Fluorescent Light (CFL) bulbs.

The use of ceiling fans will enhance your home's heating and cooling and allow you to adjust your thermostat to use less energy. Don't forget to turn off the fan to save energy when the room isn't occupied.

Proper installation is critical to the performance of your ceiling fan. For complete ceiling fan installation and usage tips, go to ENERGYSTAR.gov.
