It's time to switch your fan direction! The direction your ceiling fan spins affects the air flow in your home. Duh, right? But this simple fact has a big impact on heating and cooling your home, With your fan set to the right direction, you'll be more comfortable in the extremes of summer and winter, and you'll save money, too. During the summer you want the fan to blow air straight down, so your ceiling fan needs to run in a counter clockwise direction as you look up at it. The warmer it is, the higher the speed should be. During the winter the fan needs to run clockwise direction, to pull the cool air up and the heat down.
