Switch
29. Use the reverse switch, located on the side of the
fan, to optimize your fan for seasonal performance
(Fig. 29).
Using a ceiling fan will allow you to raise your
thermostat in the summer and lower your
thermostat in the winter without sacrificing comfort.
Important:
Wait for the fan to stop before moving
the reverse switch. The reverse switch must be set
either completely up or down in order for the fan to
function correctly. If the reverse switch is set in the
middle position, the fan will not operate.
30.
In warmer weather,
push the reverse switch
down, which will result in downward airflow
creating a wind chill effect (Fig. 30).
31.
In cooler weather,
push the reverse switch up and
the fan speed to low, which will result in upward
airflow that can help move stagnant, hot air off the
ceiling area. By mixing the air, the heat may not
have to run as often and may yield energy savings
(Fig. 31).
