10 • Operating and Cleaning Your Ceiling Fan
10-1. Turn on electrical power to the fan.
10-2. Ceiling fans work best by blowing air downward (counterclockwise
blade rotation) in warm weather to cool the room with a direct
breeze. In cold weather, having the fan draw air upward (clockwise
blade rotation) will distribute the warmer air trapped at the
ceiling around the room without causing a draft.
10-3. For cleaning nishes, use a soft brush or lint-free cloth to prevent
scratching. A vacuum cleaner brush nozzle can remove heavier
dust. Remove surface smudges or accumulated dirt and dust using
a mild detergent and a slightly dampened cloth. You may use
an artistic agent, but never abrasive cleaning agents as they will
damage the nish.
10-4. Clean wood nish blades with a furniture polishing cloth.
Occasionally, apply a light coat of furniture polish for added
protection and beauty. Clean painted and high-gloss blades in the
same manner as the fan nish.
In warm weather, use
downward air ow pattern
In cold weather, use upward
