ENERGY USE
Reduce your cooling costs by 90% with a ceiling fan.
Using up to 90% less electricity per hour to run, ceiling fans can be a cheaper way to keep cool in summer. Energy-efficient ceiling fans don't use energy to cool the air however the circulation of air in the room is what makes a room feel cooler.
If a ceiling fan alone isn't cutting it, using one in conjunction with your air conditioning can help you save. It will allow you to set your air conditioning at a slightly higher temperature reducing the energy it uses while the ceiling fan efficiently circulates the cooler air.
For maximum energy efficiency, remember to turn off the fan when you leave the room.
