Energy Efficient Use of Ceiling Fans
Ceiling fan performance and energy savings rely
heavily on the proper installation and use of the
ceiling fan. Here are a few tips to ensure quality and
product performance.
Choosing the Appropriate Mounting Location.
Ceiling fans should be installed, or mounted, in the
middle of the room and at least 7 feet above the floor
and 18 inches from the walls. If ceiling height allows,
install the fan 8 - 9 feet above the floor for optimal
airflow. Consult your Emerson Retailer for optional
mounting accessories.
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. Select a
fan speed that provides a comfortable breeze, lower
speeds consume less energy. 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!
Turn Off When Not in the Room. Ceiling fans cool
people, not rooms. If the room is unoccupied, turn off
the ceiling fan to save energy.
Remote Control Procedures (cont.)

Operating Your Ceiling Fan
Reversing Air Circulation
Figure 29
1.All fans are shipped from the factory with the
reversing switch positioned to circulate air
downward. If airflow is desired in opposite
direction, turn your fan off and wait for the blades to
stop turning, then slide the reversing switch to the
opposite position, and turn fan on again
(Figure 30).
2. The fan blades will turn in the opposite direction
and reverse the airflow.
