down
In the winter time your ceiling fan should push the room air in an upwards motion and in the summer time the ceiling fan should push the room air in a downwards motion.
As best they can, they should push in the same direction.As best they can, they should push in the same direction.As best they can, they should push in the same direction.As best they can, they should push in the same direction.
Counter Clockwise. Push air down (down position on most fans)
Fans doesn't push heat or cold down but pushes air with force in the direction which is determined by the position of blades of fan.
In this way, the shadow of the fan rotating at the floor is clockwise. Ceiling fans can be set up to rotate either way, many of them have a switch that will change the direction. Others can be wired to rotate either way. Typically they are designed to push air rather than pull it.
In winter, fan should blow down,heat rises,get it back. In summer ,fan should blow up for a 2 story vaulted ceiling,to circulate air but not blow down hot air.On a one story in summer it can blow either,but it's a prefference.Up is ok,but down you get a lower cool index feeling.
first you turn the face the right direction then you push the face up, and then you will find the face if you do it right.
forward, so it cuts when you push.
Not all fans do that. Some are also reversible. Also the direction of turning is opposite if you observe from the opposite side.A bit more:On ceiling fans, they are made to be reversed for a reason, so the blades can either pull the air up or push it down. For example, on mine, with the way the blades are tilted, when it goes clockwise, it pulls the air up, pulling the warmer air upwards. When I flip the switch to reverse the direction to counter clockwise, the blades push the air downwards.For home ceiling fans, the air should be moving down in the summer time. In the winter time when the home heating unit is being used, the air should be drawn up to the ceiling. This causes a flow pattern that circulates up through the fan to the ceiling, across the ceiling and down the walls to the floor where it gets drawn back up to the ceiling. This rotational pattern draws the warm air from the ceiling and redistributes it to the floor where you can sense the warmth.
You will likely find that a ceiling fan will not satisfactorily circulate air between rooms. However, you will find that setting the fan rotation to circulate air from the ceiling to the floor will maintain a more even room temperature since hot air rises.Some people prefer to set their fans so it pulls the air from the floor to the ceiling if the draft from the fan is uncomfortable.
A push or pull with size and direction is a vector
Fans should spin counterclockwise in the summer. The counterclockwise rotation pushes cool air down, while clockwise rotation can be used at a low speed in the winter to pull cool air up and push warmer air down.Keep in mind, though, that ceiling fans don't actually cool rooms—they just create a breeze that has a wind chill effect, making you feel cooler. So you can turn the fan off if nobody's home.
